Are you serious? Young males are in the highest risk group for auto accidents, and other accidents. You're not subsidizing any more than any other group, probably less.
Um, if I'm in an automobile accident, automobile insurance would pickup the tab, not healthcare insurance
Why is it the most vocal supporters, have the stupidiest arguments...

Tell me how much your accident injury policy is? Most are about $5,000. I cant believe you can post such nonsense without knowing how much your policy covers.
If I'm in an accident, my health plan covers the cost. Be careful who you call stupid.
Mine, too. Most auto insurance plans have relatively low caps for injury related coverage. My Health Insurance only maxes out my out of pocket max. Hopefully, I never need it, but it is nice to know it is there.
cost to individual $100
COST TO TAXPAYERS...21,900

I don't know that and either do you.
fact the BILL was 22k
he paid only 100 (according to him)
that leaves a 21,900 BILL.....somebody paid it
the only LOGICAL answer is the taxpayer....the more liberals make policy, the more the taxpayer gets screwed
uhm are you blind..........there was a bill (cost) of 22k....
it had to be paid by some entity...
since we are talking about obamacare..that would be the taxpayer
This is a classic example of how most people know so little about the ACA. The claim is paid by the insurance company. Many people will have tax subsidies but the claims are paid by insurance. In this case there probably wasnt a subsidy. He paid insurance and his insurance company paid the claim. Just like auto, fire, and health insurance last year.
