you probably don't realize it, but you practically are required to buy car insurance. if you wreck and you have no insurance, it's not very pretty, especially for your money. Same thing with heath. if you get sick and don't have insurance, it's not very good! i don't understand why people so strongly oppose requirement to buy heath insurance, but don't even stop to think about car insurance, the same principle.
 
I am tired of being told what I have to spend my paycheck on. I work hard for what I get, and also I am tired of providing for welfare recipients and illegals. Why can't I spend my paycheck on my family the way I want to, instead of how 0bama thinks I should spend it.
 
It is not the same principle. May be if health insurers could complete like auto insurers, then it may be a fair comparison. So maybe the government should get out of the way. Let the companies compete on a level playing ground and let people get coverage "a la carte" like we can with our auto insurance. Let's try something fairly simple like that first, before we rewrite the whole system. And, if there is so much waste in Medicare/Medicaid fix it, then let's see how much money is left over.
 
It is not a valid comparison. Auto insurance is required to protect the other people you injure.
