Not too bright are you clarke? If they're going to have trouble paying
for the universal medical insurance then they sure as hell are going
to have much more trouble paying for medical help when they need it.
Your half assed solution would be for them to declare bankruptcy to
get Medicare.

Exactly how many of you objectors to universal health insurance (alias
greedy, selfish assholes) are willing to say that you'd happily become
indigent to get Medicare?

Hey Uppy. Why am I suddenly a greedy, selfish asshole because I can't
afford healthcare insurance and am ****ed because my gov't just said
it will fine me for not having it? Where the hell do you get off?

I've spent roughly $200 per YEAR for my healthcare over the past
couple of decades. That includes chiropractic visits and the rare
doctor visit and very rare prescription. It doesn't include the
occasional massage or the expensive trips to the dentist every 5 years
or so.

Now the gov't says I'm going to have to pay about $600 a MONTH for a
benefit I won't receive and can't use for the next 5 years? If this
is the case, there's no way the public will stand for it. Bad ****'s
about to happen, methinks.
