Poor Al doesn't understand the difference between insurance and care.

In 2013, nearly 8 in 10 were in a family with a worker, and nearly 6 in 10 have family income below 200% of poverty. Which is probably about 70% of recent college grads right now.

>> Even people who choose to forego insurance don't' really have the right to do so since the rest of us are obligated to provide health care for them when they need it. This, of course, isn't factual. We have zero obligation to provide health care for them when they need it. You're confusing health care with emergency services and these are two different things.

Al, Even people who choose to forego insurance don't' really have the right to do so since the rest of us are obligated to provide health care for them when they need it. If you're talking about "emergency room care," that's already funded by state and local taxes. So the ACA solves the problem by rightly forcing you to buy insurance, and helping you financially if you can't afford it. What's wrong with that? You can use the same "logic" to force people to pay for anything. Tenchusatsu
