Health care Insurance should be like Life insurance, your choice!

The ones that need it cannot afford it, the ones that think they won’t need it won’t pay for it the ones that pay pay more and pay for others.

For all the people that rolled the dice and decided to go without health insurance should the American people be paying there covid 19 health bill now. There are problems with the whole system that need to be fixed. Why are doctor bills so outrageous? Why is insurance so expensive? It's all a racket. I remember when I payed next to nothing for blue cross blue shield in the 90's and it was great coverage. Now I pay like 300 a month and my employer picks up the rest. If my employer didn't, I bet I'd have to pay about 500 to 700 a month. Why do hospitals sell their uncollected bills to collection agencies for pennies on the dollar and write off the loss but the patient still pays the full price to collections? It's all a scam to keep the people poor. Most people that file bankruptcy is due to medical bills.

Obamacare was anything but cheap or free. Now, poor can get on Medical Assistance (MA). If they qualify, it costs them nothing.

Sounds like poor people get it for free and people with money pay more to subsidize them. Here everyone is covered.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Poor can get Obama care cheap practically free. Was trump wrong to get rid of government mandate. I believe so because use now he plans on covering the expense of the uninsured. True, poor can get ACA for very little or for free. Millions of millionaires are also getting free or pay little for HI. They show no income which they have no income but are worth multi millions of dollars get almost free HI. The ACA is a very broken unfair program that the blue party started and will turn into socialized medicine.

Even if you do have insurance, there is a deductible, which is usually about $2500, plus a copay, plus premiums, before it does you any good. You have to have a major medical catastrophe before it kicks in. I'm seriously thinking about going to prison just for the medical benefits.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

The insurance RACKET is exactly that, a "RACKET"! Ever watch the show Weather Gone Viral on the weather channel? If you have, you would have seen many cities flattened by tornados, wildfires, floods, etc. Ask some of those survivors if they think insurance is a racket. It might seem that way until you need it.
