How about auto insurance?

I dealt with that at #19 et seq.

The difference with health care is that government has decided years ago that public hospitals must treat everybody, but that everybody is now out of hand. It is time to require personal responsibility and charge the users of the facilities and not overcharge only those who up to now are responsible and buy insurance.

No, when government gets too far involved in something and screws it up, the solution isn't for it to get even more involved. It needs to get less involved.

So you are for throwing out all the bums and poor women and children who show up in the IR for treatment? Or, are you for a reasonable solution? If you are for a solution lay it out in as few words as required so I can get a gist of it. Thanks.

Based on 19, are you saying that health care is a right, different from driving an auto? Are you for Hillary care then?

BTW, in New Hampshire there is no mandatory auto insurance as the history shows that drivers in NH have been responsible whether or not they have insurance and government has not had to become involved. There goes your argument that the reason one has to have insurance is because driving is a privilege. The basis for licensing is that but not insurance. States require insurance to force a certain level of financial responsibility on the public.
