Where is the 'set-up' Kitten?
It's a very simple question, which you apparently do not want to answer.
Tell me again how you long for meaningful debate? LOL
It's a whole lot cheaper to provide check-ups and routine tests than it is to pay to treat someone who shows up in the ER in an advanced stage of illness.
Do you not understand that either way we pay?
For people like me who have health insurance, my premiums are higher because I am paying for the uninsured.
I guess you don't have health insurance, because you refuse to answer that question as well.
So who is going to pay for your sorry *** when you show up sick or hurt in the ER?
Me, that's who.
There were people not like you who carried major medical, catestrophic and long term care with but paid out of pocket for routine check ups and tests. They CHOSE to do so and used the money saved on premiums for their retirement, their business or whatever they wanted to use it for. A good many of those people no longer have that choice and are paying hundreds, and in some cases, thousands of dollars more in premium costs.
So if they did show up at the emergency room they were covered.
