Re-read my posts because what you state is not correct. I think we have an obilgation to care for the young, the old, and the mentally disabled. I also think healthcare can be made more affordable if everyone actively participated. In our current system "we" take a very passive approach to heath insurance. Ironically, we take auto insurance more important than health insurance. The basis of my OP is to understand why. I don't understand and I still don't.
