Would you feel the same way if you had a pre existing condition and couldn't get health insurance? Never mind "I can't afford it," you literally could not get health insurance at all? Serious question (that I'm sure you won't answer).



Having a pre-existing condition and wanting insurance is like buying fire insurance after your house has burned.

It's INSURANCE. For IN CASE something bad happens, not for after it already did.

If you have cancer and want health insurance, it should cost the same as paying for the treatment yourself. Plus administrative overhead, coverage for non-cancer related stuff, etc..

Providing health insurance for recent graduates until the age of 26 with their parents insurance is pissing away money?

RWNs certainly are cynical. Their last-man-standing ideology makes them resent any type of contribution to modern society.


Democrat after Democrat after Democrat went on the news crying that there are millions of Americans without basic health insurance. "We're the richest country in the world, how can this be that millions of Americans lack basic health insurance."

And then of course they come up with a plan that costs $9,000 per year per person.

What the eff?!?!!!

I think we could provide basic health care for $1500 per year per person.

Come up with a plan like that and I'll support it.

Everyone gets the basic and if you want more then you pay for it yourself.

I distinctly remember the complaints that it would force us to buy a product from a private party.


No other law has gone that far.



Like liability car insurance?

No one is forced to buy liability insurance unless you own a car. No one is forced to buy a car. You know this has been brought up before.


That being said I support a single pay system.



You are confusing the comparison.


You are right, we are forced to buy liability insurance, not forced to buy a car.


With healthcare, everybody already has a car. The government is not forcing anyone to get rid of the indestructible body and pay for one that breaks down.


If this health insurance requirement is unconstitutional, we would have to consider car insurance requirements to also be unconstitutional.

The comparison is dumb. They should let it go. It doesn't help the case for a single payer system.

Only if the government requires we get licenses to use our own bodies.

Admittedly, that is probably coming next in the 'left'-ass statist utopian vision.

We already have FDA governance of our genetics...
