I'm not talking about people who legitimately can't afford it. I'm talking about people who can afford the premiums but refuse to do so for whatever reason.
It's ironic how this seems like a very Republican idea to have, yet it is Democrats who tend to make it while Republicans fervently reject it.
Yes in a way I'd say so.
If your young, single and your making something in range of $80,000-100,000 and refuse to get health insurence despite being able to afford it. You have no one but yourself to blame imo if you become ill one day or get into an accident.
Although these types of people aren't too common , they are the types who will be too cheap to pay their bills and leave someone else like the hospital or taxpayer to pick it up.
