56. "treatment at the emergency room"? It would be up to each individual to obtain insurance or pay for
health care just as it is today.
Today, people who need health care and are unable to pay for medical treatment or do not have insurance are left without.
The real problem is we have a large number of workers who do not have any type of health insurance yet part of their taxes go to pay for Medicaid for individuals and families with low incomes and resources.
For example, some 20% of National Guard troops called to active duty do not have health care insurance but their taxes contribute to Medicaid payments. IMO that's not fair.
