"Insurance requires copays - an uninsured who goes to an ER and doesn't pay, doesn't pay anything."

Bingo!! The rest of us pay and it's a very very expensive way of dispensing medical care. Clinics would help and are well received where they are located. Most major cities have free clinics but not enough.... The families you saw were probably all of the kids and the mother......probably no father at home. Only one was probably sick.... Asthma attacks are epidemic in poor neighborhoods.
