If you didn't have to worry about healthcare, would you start a company?
earl: I bailed on a company with a great product idea because of health insurance.Basically, I have a congenital defect in my eyes that will lead, with about 20% probability, to very expensive health bills.  This (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigment_dispersion_syndrome ) if anybody cares.  Therefore, I simply can't live without constant health insurance coverage on the off chance I require pretty expensive treatment -- drugs, then surgery if the drugs don't work.
