If they force us to buy insurance...

...everyone in this country should drop their insurance and seek care at emergency rooms like GWB said.








Then I woke up.

:silly:

1. No insurance - no medical care or have the money up front
that way there are no regulations people will resent to buy insurance. We just have to be willing as a society not to treat people without insurance unless they prove they can pay out of pocket for a procedure. :sarcasm:

2. I have been thinking the same thing.
The rpigs can be f----ing a--holes all the while claiming to be Christian they forget that one of the tenets is to take care of thy fellow, but they are so damned selfish that health care for all makes em scream bloody murder.
What could the fed do if all with held? most employer plans do not cover much. My partners plan costs him around 500 every two weeks yet amounts to a 10% discount card and while it has dental plan that plan does not cover anything worth while. At this time it is not required if all dropped their insurance what could they do? I mean the insurance cos have no qualms about taking your $ then the big FU when you need it as happened to me.
This was a long time ago, I lost everything because they pulled the run out from under me after taking almost half my pay. Then since I was sick i lost my job, could not pay the rent etc and bacame a just another sick homeless person wandering the streets of SoFla. Until I bacame so sick I ended up in ICU at the cost to the county hospital.
I am on Medicare and Disability now.
