or does a single drop of rain?
no.. I don't agree to that at all!
They made the CHOICE to not get insurance when they were well, and now they must live with the consequences of that decision.
Under no circumstances am I FOR forcing a private business to accept sick costly people into their insurance plans and making them and in the end all the healthy responsible people foot the bill.
If the government wants to set up some sort network of charity hospitals which care for these people, fine, I might be inclined to go along with that.
But I would no more force a doctor to perform care on a person than I would force a restaurant to feed someone that was hungry, or force a hotel to give away it's rooms for free to those who have no home.

All the homosexual diseases selected against insurers by the “Come out health sign up” folks (last Friday and following), the illegals who are given amnesty (dreamers, etc.), the pre-existing conditions, and non-underwritten folks with dangerous lifestyles (drug users, alcoholics, skateboarders, skydivers, etc.), and the non-tax paying insureds (low income) will send the premiums into the ozone for the rest. We are facing a 4 trillion dollar a year bill in two years...just for health care.
What is the Federal Government Form that we taxpayers can use to file to recover our taxpayer dollars spent by the Administration on the Obama’care’ Insurance Boondoggle?
Since the US House approved this waste of taxpayer money, should we file against the House majority Red Ink Republicans, or the House minority Red Ink Democrats?
