If you have a big screen tv, cable, a bass boat, 22 inch rims on your car, a fancy purse, an escalade, and you get yo nails did every two weeks, a weave and go to the club your arse is choosing to not have healthcare!

Also just because people are rich does not mean they should be enabling someone else's unhealthy habits and addictions by supporting their health care.

Yeah. We knew this before we passed Obamacare. But we wanted to ignore that they made up somewhere between 25-33% of the total uninsured.

A lot more people will have a lot more money for rims once this new plan goes into effect. Especially 50 year olds in rural counties. Expect some dope arse pimp jobs and jewel encrusted iphone cases.

Yep. I chose, as a healthy young single adult, that it made more sense financially, to forgo health insurance that I won't use. Why should i be spending more on food, gas, and any other bill, so I can go get one check up a year?

You realize there are plenty of white people without health insurance, don't you? No, you probably do not.

I didn't say anything about color. Are white people the only ones that get those things? What a dumbass you must be.

Most of the people on Obamacare are Diner waitresses earning 32k a year and these are hardly the people driving escalades.

And for any young people out there, my brother in law thought he was in the best of health and at age 27 he came home crying to his wife that the doc said he had leukemia (up until now thank God the treatments have been good). Just saying, you are taking a big big risk.

And what if you don't but still can't afford a $1,500 a month premium? Not to mention thousands in deductibles then co pays and reasonable and customary charges etc. etc. etc.

Tru dat...and when these dead beats get sick and go to the doctor the provider treats them and you and I pay for their health care AND the collections efforts AND the associated carrying costs of that bad debt. But by-god we ain't having none of this mandatory shite where people must be responsible for their own shite.

This whole idea that a bass boat is preventing folks from having health insurance and that this is somehow relevant to the issue of health insurance makes as much sense as saying a person with a crack addiction steals blue jeans at WalMart. Yes, they do....and it means that anyone buying a pair of blue jeans at walmart pays more.

So are we going to make it illegal to not have all of the things listed if you don't have healthcare? The ACA Mandate did just that....and y'all threw a fricking hissy fit....

The mandate meant that you could have all of those things but you were going to pay a penalty for not having insurance thus having less disposable income for things like iphones and that penalty would offset the expenses your bad choices forced on others. But y'all threw a hissy fit about it and so here we are....

And?

This has nothing to do with race. It has everything to do with personal responsibility.

The people who want to whine and complain about people not having health insurance are more than welcome to go out and pay for those individuals, no one is stopping you.

This is the biggest problem we face as a nation.....we encourage employers to pay as little of their actual costs of production as possible and then get outraged when their employees can't pay for their employers cost of production...and we allow these criminals (low wage employers) to strut about claiming to be job creators and something akin to masters of commerce when in fact they are relying on the largesse of the collective to pay for their production costs....
