Same people who pay for food stamps, unemployment checks for 99 weeks, unlimited free medicaid costs, rent subsidies, heat subsidies, aid to dependent children, reduced costs lunches to students, etc.

But I am talking about those WHO CAN AFFORD insurance and do not bother to buy it. However I am against the type of mandate in Obamacare which requires you to buy “deluxe” insurance. I am for a type of insurance which will only cover catastrophic health care bills and which can be bought from any state. Such insurance does not exist now. So, I am hoping a real healthcare reform law will emerge after the 2012 elections.

Given the governments propensity to get “the camel’s nose under the tent”, distort markets and then completely take over I highly doubt they’ll limit their actions to the individual mandate to buy “basic” insurance. The individual mandate in and of itself is contrary to freedom, and eventually the government will define what is and is not insurance (according to interest group politics), how much it costs etc. Your solution inevitably leads to single payer socialized medicine.
