I'm all in favor of people not having insurance if they don't want it, but the flip side is that we need to pass a law that says that emergency rooms aren't required to treat them unless they show up with cash or a credit card with a sufficient limit. The problem with the system is that generally healthy people don't think that they need insurance, but then something catastrophic happens to them and they complain how doctors/insurance companies/the government has forced them into bankruptcy and ruined their financial futures. The Republican Party (of which I am a registered voter) has become less and less about personal responsibility and more and more about having a free option on government subsidies which you don't have to pay for until you need them.
