Everybody needs a doctor at some point in their life.

Pay the doctor/hospitals directly. Self insure. Fee for service.
This new entitlement is a big black hole for us to throw our collective money into. Watch for all the new taxes we will all pay to support this.
Why does a person have to buy insurance if he/she doesn't need it or want it? Why must I be coerced into buying a product I may not want and if I don't buy it I will be taxed for not buying it?
The reason for the above is that the Federal Government tells me I have to or else. I see this as overreaching and as a loss of freedom.
