Relate it to Auto Insurance. Most states require liablity auto coverage. However many states allow you to OPT OUT of liablity insurance. All you have to do is post a CASH BOND of $50,000 or $100,000 and presto, you don't have to carry auto insurance!!!<br> <br> Why not do the same with health insurance? People who don't have insurance COST everyone else through higher rates and taxes. These people can purchase major medical insurance with $5k deductable for about $100 mo. Why not require it? Prove you have it, or it's deducted from your paycheck. For poor folks, deduct no more than 20% Gross. Just somehow make it full participation.<br> <br> AND, because Boortz dosn't want to be forced to purchase insurance, then he can put up a $1million CASH BOND in lieu of purchasing health insurance.<br> <br> The costs will go down for everyone when the uninsured are finally covered. Sure, it sucks to require people to buy insurance. BUT! If you want a private industry solution, you MUST have FULL participation, or it won't work.
