Please, can we stop with the "morality" hyperbole - and stick to logic and legal?
Gee...what a surprise! You don't understand what morality is....nor will you ever understand why it is vital to any successful civilization's financial system.

Oh, I understand it alright. What you don't apparently understand though is there is no COMMON MORALITY. Morality is individual.

I know pretending to be a conservative while standing on a chair and shouting out liberal bs, is a lie.. Does lying fit into your equation as to whats moral and what isnt?
Probably one of the most selfish, f'd up things I've seen lately on this forum. Congrats on falling in line w/the me mentality of that great party on the right.

haha, in order to make that argument, you must actually fall in line with the "me" mentality of those on the left who demand healthcare for YOU..
I'm sure you wont appreciate the irony of calling someone else selfish while showing how selfish you are over demanding something for YOU...

Your post.....makes no sense. I have health care, thanks. I do want health care for everyone. And that equates to being selfish....haha, never heard that one before.

And I applaud you for wanting health care / insurance for everyone. But, the question is, do you want to MANDATE / FORCE everyone to have health insurance and fine them, or jail them if they do not? Or, would you encourage people to get health insurance but ultimately let the decision be voluntary - up to the individual?
Exactly! Why do movie stars, rock stars and other famous folks deserve their multi-million dollar fortunes but corporate execs are treated like villians for having bonuses?
For one thing, the owners of the teams, recording studios, and film studios are making huge coin off the athletes and movies stars.
CEOs get their bonuses, salaries, and golden parachutes regardless of whether anyone is making money or not.
If an athlete is no longer of any value to a team owner, he gets kciked to the street with nothing. If a CEO is no longer of value to a corporation, he continues on, or he is given a REWARD to leave.
If a movie a star makes bombs, they are usually blamed for it, and they usually get credit if its done well. If a company a CEO runs bombs, the rank and file workers get fired, and if it succeeds, the CEO reaps a lions share of the reward, if not all of it.

This is a rediculous solution. The people who support this type of thing are nuts. If we are going to keep the private health insurance crap, we might as well leave it alone as is. Forcing poor people to buy something they cant afford under threat of jail time is rediculous.

Encourage? Like with public service announcements? How is that going to make people without insurance be able to afford it?
