I was trying to draw a parallel here -- I do believe there are some that could afford some level of healthcare covereage, but say they can't afford it because they spend money on what they consider to be more "essential" -- even if that is satellite TV -- should I indemnify them against a bad choice (Don't go crazy on me here -- I'm not saying that the large number of un-insured are in this specific position)
