Think logically. It will help you succeed in life. The government that forces you to buy health insurance will later be dictating what insurance policies should cover, how much they should cost........
Your brand of incremental statism is no better than theirs.
I loathe freeloaders who take risks and then are unable to pay the humongous hospital bills. If it takes a law to prevent that theft, so be it. If it takes a law to prevent one from robbing banks so be it. If it takes a law to prevent one from burglarizing others, so be it.
Those who refuse to take responsibility for their hospital costs are no better than a thief who steals your wallet. Because they are stealing my money in the form of higher premiums to pay for their cheating.
Having a law on the books does not mean more government in your life any more than a law against bank robbery. Try to think on deeper levels instead of forming knee jerk opinions .
