However, voluntarily choosing to join a group to share and offset costs with, is much different than the Government mandating that everyone join a group to offset the cost of the bums that won't pay.
In a few years, I should be able to afford to fund my own health savings account, and be eligible to opt out as self-insured. Otherwise, I would like to find one of those cash only, no insurance accepted care provider groups.
What group have you been forced into? None.
It is a proven fact the majority of the uninsured are average blue collar middle Americans who work a shitty job for a small company which doesn't provide health insurance to its employees.
When you were a small business owner who was your health insurance provider? Did you have employees? Did you offer health insurance?
If you join one of those cash only groups, what will you do if one of your family members gets seriously ill? Like acute lymphoblastic leukemia which probably won't kill you (unless you don't have the cash to pay for your treatment,) but will probably leave you bankrupt?
