The wife’s bills after having a stroke that stopped her heart leaving her with severe brain trauma came to 400k. About 380k paid by BCBS of NJ. Insurance is a must.
Never happen. I have assets that can be liquidated. Easily. I can pay my way and I expect other responsible people to do the same. Those that expect others to carry them should be culled from the herd.
Never say never. God sees what you write!
Not everyone may be fortunate enough to be having savings money.
Healthcare is expensive in this country.

God sees you are robbing paul to pay for peters healthcare. You are also supporting the great federal Caesar in his efforts to interfere in everyones health care.

I could have sold my house and liquidated my 401k. I think insurance is a better option. I pay for home insurance too even though the house is paid for.
Remember when the Right championed "skin in the game" and then instantly - when skin in the game was passed - spent billions and untold amounts of time fighting against it?
Who could make such things up?
Remember when the Left championed making corporations pay their fair share? Corporations currently foot more than 55% of all healthcare in this nation, now suddenly you want to let them off the hook?

What gives?
Yes, at some point corporate interests and those favoring the poor are going to screw the working man.
Having corps paying for workers insurance is stifling competition, innovation, public safety and health.
Corps, even though they don´t want to pay for it, have HUUGE leverage over workers who might not find other jobs with health insurance. They will accept whatever the company demands as long as they and their family is covered.
By shifting the burden of healthcare from the private market to the public market, the US would save 6-7% of GDP... EACH YEAR.
And everybody would be insured, for any eventuality, for their life.. and they could start their own business, find another workplace, be more free and experience less stress.

Don't smoke, don't drink to excess. Never use mind altering drugs, exercise regularly.
Get a good education so that you can earn enough money. Work hard at your chosen field, buy insurance that you need and give regularly to charities that provide for those who need assistance through no fault of their own.
Vote for people who will require insurance companies to sell across state lines.
Canada has similar, an income tax on employees and a payroll tax on employers, but unlike the US your health insurance is not employer dependent.
Employers would prefer a straight 2% payroll tax (Ontario Canada example) and wash their hands of it instead of messing about with managing employee insurance and negotiating rates and terms with insurance companies.
