Do you hope to be left to die in the street if catastrophic illness

Won't happen. As some great worthy said (paraphrasing):

The law, in its majestic equality, prohibits both rich and poor alike from
begging alms on the public way, living under bridges, or sleeping in the
gutter.


The choices a

a) get everybody into a healthcare plan whether they like it or not --
but you don't like that

b) allow/force health care providers to turn away people who can't or
won't pay, ultimately resulting in them dying in the streets -- you
say that won't happen

c) the current system, in which the uninsured are paid for by the
insured in the form of inflated costs resulting from health care
providers treating the uninsured for free -- yet I suspect you
complain about the high cost of health care

Can anybody suggest another?
