So tell me . . . Why should I pay the medical costs for people who refuse to get health insurance??? I say yes, if people refuse to get insurance, then tax them. I pay for my insurance, and have no desire to pay for freeloaders. Freeloaders who refuse to get insurance are a huge reason why healthcare costs so much. Every time one of those morons gets sick they go to the emergency room, and you and I end up paying for it.
Are you so willing to pay for freeloaders? If so, then please pay for my insurance too.
I mean come on, on one hand it may help his company, on the other hand it may hurt it by what effect this is going to have on this already busted up economy.
NM, These people are mean.

I'm calling BS on this. I don't believe you are autistic and schizo......sorry dude, i ain't buying it.
If you can type and respond as well as you have here, it seems you would atleast be able to hold a work-at-home job, or some sort of low stress administrative job.
This HC bill is orchestrated chaos IMO. Create the chaos, then step in to maintain the new order.
"Order out of chaos"
NM, These people are mean.

Joined today I see Hmmmm. And what a sad story you have Hmmm. I am really starting to wonder what is truth and what are lies. No one should have to help the meek charity should be a choice not a law. You should be ashamed of yourself. If I was you I would be. And that is the truth.

I am not a freeloader. I make minimum wage. I cannot afford insurance. I can't afford car insurance, I can't afford gas, I can't afford to have a car or a social life. I can barely feed and cloth myself. There's millions of people like me who simply cannot afford it. It's sickening that every year I'm working harder for less money. That's why I'm declaring war on the rich. DEATH TO THE RICH!!!

You know, I just realized something. The small company I work for doesn't provide health insurance to the few employees who are there. We've taken severe blows during the Recession, and if there is a government mandate to provide insurance, the company will have no choice but to close up shop. Just another eliminated local business in a long line of them this year.

No problem. Just pay the 350$ fine or tax the first year, 650$ the second and after that it 2.5% of income. So no tax return for you and you may end up owing.

Also, for those that "stitch" themselves up and don't need medical insurance. That is a dead argument the day they have heart troubles and can't be their own cardiologist or brain surgeon. Etc.
