georgerussia 0 #76 September 16, 2009 Quote Will I have the choice of whether or not to subsidize others? You do not have this choice right now as well, because those who do not have insurance just drop by ERs - which then raises fees and insurance companies raise premiums for the rest of us who have insurance. So you're already subsidizing others - and currently you're subsidizing not only those who cannot afford it because they are poor, but also those who cannot afford it because they prefer to spend money on other things. So, on the one hand, the bill makes it harder for those who can afford insurance and just has different spending preferences. On the other hand, those who were responsible would have to pay for those who were not - but it was always like this. Anyway, it is not possible to export all irresponsible people to Mexico, so one way or another you'll have to deal with them some way.* Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. * Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucky... 0 #77 September 17, 2009 QuoteThe "right to work" means that the government cannot prevent you from seeking a job. Most predominantly it is applied to distinguish between union closed shop states and RTW where you cannot be compelled to join a union. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
