When your liver rots out and you have no health insurance, then what?

Then you die. Sounds harsh, but really, why should others have to pay
the
consequences of your bad choices?

Really ignorant response Doug. What if it's not the result of a bad
choice?

Really ignorant comment Upscale. The question about livers rotting out
was
in
the context of discussing the effects of alcohol abuse -- which is
indeed
a
bad choice.

Do try to pay attention.

What if it's the result of not being able to afford sufficient
insurance?

Perhaps if the hypothetical owner of the hypothetical rotted liver had
not
spent all his money on booze, he would have been able to affort
insurance.
I
think you'd agree that choosing to spend your money on liquor instead of
health insurance is a poor choice.


For some people, after the first drink there is no longer a choice.


There is always a choice.


You ever been addicted?


My wife was, to cigarettes. She quit. She made the choice to quit. If there
truly was "no choice" then no one would ever be able to break an addiction.
