Not sure about the others, but I know for a fact that Rush is one of the “millions who are uninsured” (in his case it is by choice). All of the universal plans on the table right now force compliance, which would mean that Rush would be forced to have insurance, and ultimately, taxes will be collected to pay for it.

Oooh. You’re right. I forgot that Rush is uninsured. As for the others, we will all be paying for everybody else, so they will be included. Socialized Medicine is a disaster. I worked in that setting when I lived in Britain. I wouldn;t wish it on us here. No choice of Doctor, no appointment times (just go and wait like a walk-in clinic), no recourse if mistakes are made. Americans are waaaay too spoiled by good treatment. Everyone will get mediocre treatment and those that can afford extra private insurance will buy it so they can actually be treated in a timely manner.
