21. Well, I'm one of the tens of millions who are fools...
Please be advised that my lack of coverage is not a choice: it is too expensive (if you have been following the debate, this is the major reason why so many people have no coverage, and millions more have crappy coverage).

The rest of your moralisms about "selfishness" and "leaches" are meaningless.

I am curious about "...doesn't have insurance their whole lifetime is a leach...:" If someone had individual insurance for, say, 20 years (as I HAD), then has to drop coverage because of cost, and consequently gets seriously ill and runs up a huge bill, is he/she more moral (under your scheme) than someone who has never had coverage and suffers the same fate?
