Are they lazy? The ones who work but their employers don't provide health insurance? Oh? Should they get new jobs with employers that provide it? Problem is, there are not enough jobs with employers who provide health insurance for everybody to have such a job.

AGDee, I see your point. The only issue I have is that people are in charge of their own destiny. In fact, as a college student in a graduate program, I no longer have health care. Did I choose this lifestyle? Yes. I chose to be in graduate school. It is like teachers who "strike" for more pay. It annoys me because they knew they were going into a job which paid them about $35,000 a year (which is more than many caseworkers make) and they get 3 months off for summer break, yet they think they are entitled to more money. Then, some of those teachers get summer jobs. I mean, really?
If you chose a career path with little to no insurance, that is your own fault. I am owning up to my choice to not have it. It sucks. Yes, but I chose to go back to school. Thoughts?
