This is why I opt out of insurance altogether since the day the mandate took affect. I’ve saved over $40k after tax dollars. :-)


Without health insurance, one major accident or major illness would wipe that $40K away and put you in the hole for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Only two class of people can go without health insurance in today’s world, the very rich or the very poor. If you are middle class and have some savings and equity in a home and assets without health insurance you could lose it all.

Obamacare is nothing more than another Democrat wealth transfer scheme from the middle class to the “poor” with a cut going to big business and the government

Possible. But I might get hit by a meteor too. Would you pay $3,000 a month for health care insurance, or would you take your chances.

Yeah, me too.

And here’s the thing: Statistically, the odds are very low that such a thing happens to me. And at 62 and a Christian, I’m not afraid to die. It’s gonna happen anyway.

And interestingly, the longer I go without insurance the more faithless it seems to have it.
No, it wouldn’t.
