Taxed? It's the same way as now.

So I'm trading slave owners is what you're saying? Because without question the current insurance/health setup is Slavery that I have to pay for as well.
I've never found that my government-mandated car insurance is there when I've needed it.

I don't have health insurance and I find healthcare -- even including major events -- is less expensive than putting some insurance middleman in the middle. Add a middleman and raise the price of the product. It is basic business math.

I would have favored genuine universal healthcare, but it is not okay to have the government forcing me to buy more obnoxious and undependable insurance I will have to fight with when I am least able.
