[QUOTE="Fightingfan"] Interesting, I guess different states handle it different, I typically visited my doctor in Naples, and I had medicare as a child, and if you simply google 'Naples Florida' there's no low income what-so-ever in that city. Personally I don't see the point in health insurance(unless for surgeries, which is sketchy, they typically don't even cover dental), I much rather just pay my doctor 125 bucks and go to CVS and get my generic meds for $3, since I maybe go to the doctor once every two years.MirkoS77
Once every two YEARS? Jesus Christ man, until about a year ago I was at the doctors 48 weeks out of the year (not all week, only on Mondays). Now it's somewhat less, but every two years?? Sounds like a dream to me. Hopefully you'll never have to see the point in health insurance, but personally I can't see anything being more relevant.
On-topic: people able to work should pay their way, but those who've been dealt a sh!tty hand and are fighting against constant illness should be lent some assistance. Or at the very least, not looked down upon by those who've had the biggest blessing life could ever give them.
What about minimum-wage workers? They can't even afford the average cost of living, so how do you suppose they'd be able to afford medical insurance?
