Even then you are making the argument for gov interference in the market.


Even then I was refering to many things. Not just healthcare. Because an Autistic kid is not going to have the skills to work a job that will pay enough to live. Heck normal Americans can not survive on a regular job. You think someone with a disability can without gov health. Not going to happen. So... what then? Just die?
I have a good friend who in her mid-60's had breast cancer surgery. She had just lost her business and was in bankrupty and did not have health insurance. The state of Colorado paid the bill. Anyway, .gov does pay for life-saving cancer surgeries and subsequient treatment and this was pre-Obama Care. That's all.
