It's incredibly different. Tom Send a noteboard - 09/06/2011 03:03:07 AM
First, requiring someone to buy insurance might actually mean PRE-PAYING a certain amount (like, say, $1000), which will immediately be a bar for people who plan on not paying anything. Additionally, insurance might require submission of a social security number, so the massive numbers of illegals who are walking into emergency rooms then leaving without paying wouldn't qualify.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
