The fact that you do not have insurance and I would bet all I have you do not have enough in assets to cover organ transplants or major cancer treatment, makes you a leech on society. If more were in the pool EVERYONE'S cost can go down.

Your first part I quoted: No it doesn't. How have you paid one penny for bankruptcies? Plus anything the govt. pays for is being paid for with deficit spending. I agree I don't want to pay for anybody's shit in any way...but the truth is the Federal Reserve is simpy printing money these days and making debt that will never be paid.
The second part...Amelia G. is most certainly not a "leech on society". You're betting that somehow she is going to be catastrophically ill as a healthy young woman. The insurance companies are betting (and profiting) that she won't get sick.
As for the "more in the pool so costs go down"...THAT is what I was saying in the thread title. That is exactly what Pres. Obama promised in speech after speech. But it's not going down at all. It's going up.
I guess we should have all expected that after what happened with car insurance a few decades ago. They forced us all to buy it, the "pool" was now huge...and the prices are high as hell instead of being low.
