One thing I do know is that mandated health insurance is going to be ungodly expensive and no it ain't going to be free like everybody thinks it is. At least not for people who are willing to work cause we will be paying the insurance bill for the fucking lay abouts. Oh the govenement will provide it but the government is going to charge and eventually it will outlaw private insurance so that it has a monopoly. Or at least make is so fucking hard on private insurance companies that they just go away.
You'd probably have to pay up via your taxes. You don't get to decide what you want to pay for and what you don't based on morals. If people got to decided that by themselves, my bet is that there would be no infrastructure whatsoever.
