Laugh now but when the ACA was being discussed I thought a Federal law that forced me to buy something I didn't want could never happen in the USA.
Allow me to play devil's advocate.

Say you decide you don't want to pay for health insurance. Maybe you have on illnesses and you are a healthy person so you will rarely, if ever us it. In the event that something does happen, like you get hurt or very sick, are you financially in a position to pay cash for whatever healthcare you may need?
