2. Why not?

Was she not listening to Ronald Reagan when he said there is no free lunch or noticing he ordered hospitals to take care of those without insurance and this results in the rest of us paying for them with higher medical costs and higher premiums?
Reminds me of the dad whose daughter tells him she just moved in a very unsafe neighborhood and she needs her burly boyfriend to stay with her for protection. All of us can see where that is going and much as we dislike it, we most likely have little choice in the matter. Much like those freedom loving 20 somethings who think it unfair we force them to buy health insurance. Why do we not just let them rack up bills for us to pay with our tax dollars?

that is how adults handle it Skittles Sep 2013 #1
