Newt: “I've said consistently we ought to have some REQUIREMENT that you either have health insurance or you post a BOND...”

Hmmmmmmm! Let's see. Oh, I know. Let's make sure everyone gets it free from the govt.

I often see that and can't help but think that Gingrich meant (knowing his past record) that everyone should pay a something for their health care. Why should I continue to pay for millions of our nation's sloths' health care when they don't have to pay a dime?

So you think an American should be FORCED by the government to purchase a product?

What next, Brussels sprouts?

Newt's words were clear as were Mitt's and Obama’s.

You don't get it do you...

If their was a simple MSA-HSA / Catastrophic plan that anyone could purchase via equal tax deductions (like their employer gets) or post a bond, (which was part of the original Romneycare before the Dem House and Senate in Mass got a-hold of it). Then their is no excuse.

No excuse for the Dip-$&!+ 21 yr old on his Crotch Rocket Bike who gets a closed head injury because he didn't wear a helmet and cost us all hundreds of thousands because he didn't get some coverage. He is not 10 feet tall and bullet proof and I don't mean to be cruel but what responsibility is it of ours to pick up his tab or cost shift to us via they do it pro-bono at the hospital?

Want to ride you missile bike uninsured? post $100,000 bond.

If you have a vehicle to nudge people back into a personal responsibility model vs. Obamacare we will take care of you please tell us, because the Newtonian / Heritage Foundation Model is the best we got.

You never get to read the other half of the quote because it is usually posted by Santorum supporters, he went to explain how the taxpayer is already paying for everyone’s insurance through ER bills and diagnostics, and many costly procedures done on an emergency basis, which are much more expensive than regular preventative doctor visits, or just in a doctor’s office. the “much more expensive” part was mine.
