On the other hand, if someone else "owns" my health care coverage (employer plans or government plans) they will manage my health care to their priorities. If I am unaware of heath care options and the real costs I have no incentive to keep the costs down. The third party may or may not do what is in my best interest.

In so-called "right to work" states, there are people who are fired because their insurance company deems them a risk. So yes, that sucks. Right now, my wife has something called an "insurance nurse" deciding how she should behave during her pregnancy.
We have good insurance. We have the same insurance as John McCain.
On the other hand, Ace, you keep equating non-insured people as 20 year olds with fancy cell phones. The vast majority of the uninsured population are people on government support programs.
But of course, that was their choice to buy into the whole "cycle of poverty" thing.
