Oh please. This comparison is total BS.

You can own a car. You can drive a car. All without insurance! It’s just when you go on a public road, you are required to have insurance. You can drive it all day long on private property.

You are required to have some sort of insurance by your state government because you could hurt someone else!

You aren’t going to hurt someone else if you don’t have health insurance.

If you say “but we’ll all pay” then you have to explain to me why we have accepted the SOCIALISM of having people pay for services others have received. And don’t forget, that money is taken at the end of a gun.

We need to reject socialism in ALL of its forms.

We need to kill this meme that health insurance is like auto insurance.

Uh...it's not just about hurting someone else. If you t-bone a $100k car with your 20 year old chevy the owner of the $100k car is really going to hope you have insurance. Even more important, the insurance company of the $100k car is going to want the chevy driver to have insurance. Following the money will show that the law requiring insurance was bought by insurance companies in the first place.
