what are your free market solutions to high premiums and people with preexisting conditions? the mandate solves the problem of the uninsured and keeps insurance companies in business.

I hope you don't really believe that the government to give all the same coverage if this thing fails at the SC. If you are 70 and older, good luck on getting the kind of coverage a younger person will receive.

It is not an equal opportunity agenda that BO has presented. Read the policy.

Also, it will cost MORE than what we have been paying, so the money issue you presented is wrong.

Do I agree with the way free insurance market has been handling insurance, NO. They need a watch dog that is NOT the insurance company as they pretty much have had in the past.
