Yes....it is better to be sick and die than to give up hard earned freedoms. You haven't sacraficed a damned thing for them....so understandably, they don't mean so much to you....until you don't have them. Understand one thing....what the government gives, it can also take away. While they foot your bill, they have the power over you. The fed already imposes this power on States. It's not a far stretch for the fed to impose it's will on you once you have given them the power of paying your bills and covering your ills. And guess what....it will be against the law for you to opt out. If you want free housing and healthcare, go to jail.

Dependency on private health insurance is still an option....from what Obama says, this won't be an option if his plan is adopted.

I sure as hell don't want it if I can't walk away from it.
