The individual mandate doesn’t really affect the upper class but it definitely screws middle to low class workers. The Mexicrats are all over the place....WTF
California’s Individual Mandate: A Fix For A Broken System? Or A Penalty On The Poor?
I despise dimocraps but Republicans are just dead wrong on this topic.
Without a penalty, people won't buy insurance, then they will get hurt or sick, demand care and skip the bill.
Then the Hospitals and Doctors Cost-Shift their bills on to us, the ones that CAN pay.
As far as I'm concerned, you should either buy Insurance or pay a $50,000 fine. And do time at hard labor.
You would be freaking AMAZED at how much your insurance bill would drop if everybody paid their share........ Including the government -- Medicare, Medicaid, etc.
We really need to go to the Swiss system. So simple, so easy, so efficient.
There's no reason for something this simple to be as complicated as it is.
Except that, well..... People are stupid.
