You explained how freeloading could occur, if I just wandered into a hospital and wandered out without paying. That would be freeloading. I've never received a single service I didn't pay for. Your definition of freeloading doesn't apply to me, as much as you want it to.
You sure are projecting a lot on me from what I assume are conversations with other people. My analysis of the ACA is based entirely in my shitty attempt to work with it.
I support universal healthcare btw, since you think I'm some fundamentalist conservative. I just don't support the ACA because in my case it's shitty. I'm more than willing to blame the state I live in, the government in general, the politicians scoring political points in it, whatever.
Also I don't subscribe to Ayn Rand and have never read any of the books associated with that author, although I've heard there's a shitty movie out about them.
I'm not sure how not forcing insurance onto people leads to people dying in the streets, the same people that are dying in the streets now are the same ones that were dying in the streets before. Not sure how the ACA solved that one.
Yet again, other than say freeloader 100 times, you've never explained, precisely, how I am freeloading by paying for my health services. I hate to interrupt your little ad hominem rant, but if you can't be bothered to answer the question or explain yourself the conversation is over, which it clearly is as you have no points to raise other than foaming rants about the poor dying people in the streets, and blaming me for it somehow in a Dickensonian rage.
Under my magical system of money, I pay for the treatment I want. Under your fantasy, go to the doctor for every boo boo you get, you end up in hospitals for weeks on end racking up millions of dollars, I don't. I could use knee surgery right now as my knees hurt and causes me to limp. It'll cost me thousands even with my insurance, but I'm not willing to pay that, so you know my magical solution is? I limp. Magic. It's simply not worth it to pay for. If I start feeling bad and I get a test and I have stage 4 breast cancer, I'm not going to go bankrupt myself for a 20/80 chance that it'll be cured, I'll go take a nice vacation instead. I'm sure that'll make you happy that I have this philosophy. As hard as it is to believe, not everyone wants to go spend every last cent they have and throw it away.
Under whatever theory you have that I'm a free loader, you're wrong on every single count.
You love giving all your money to insurance companies to be funneled into superPacs for the politicians they paid off for this system, but it isn't me.
