No, they are sent a bill they don’t pay...That is why your premiums skyrocket. They get their free lunch off of you.
Wrong. They must pay the bill, or they'll have the money taken by a court and their credit effected. THat is a fact. What you're talking about is people that will never pay regardless, because they're perpetually irresponsible and shiftless. What the politicians want is for everyone else to toss more money in the system. In particular, they want responsible people that handle their own affairs to pay into a scheme to cover the business losses of the various entities involved. The health care industry is a govm't protected monopoly that keeps the costs artificially high. Forcing people to pay for that artificially high priced monopoly and cover their losses on a continual basis is wrong.
