Are you people honestly having this discussion? Has intelligence really been thrown out the window here?
So you believe that people will die because they DON'T have health insurance? That is completely retarded.
"Hey... if you don't buy our product, you're going to DIE!"
I mean, seriously... I have a little secret for you. EVERYONE dies and whether you have health insurance or not, guess what? You're STILL going to die. I knew a girl who always had insurance, even found plans for when she was in college or out of work. One day she goes in and they say you have cancer but its terminal. Health insurance sure as hell didn't save her life or any of the other people with insurance who die every day of a myriad of other causes.
I don't have insurance and I am perfectly healthy. In the last 20 years I have been to the doctor 5 or 6 times, 10 max. I SAVED money by not having health insurance and the couple times it was something serious I just paid over time on a monthly plan.
So... Why am I still alive then? I mean I don't have health insurance.
Because the statement is completely fucking ridiculous. Health insurance doesn't make you healthier and it doesn't make you die if you do not have it. I know more unhealthy people that go to the doctors all the time who HAVE insurance than those who do not.
The best that can be said is that having health insurance MAY have the POSSIBILITY of extending your life on this planet, but it most certainly is not a cause or even a very dependable predictor for death, which is totally ensured anyways.
