I don't think there's anyone here who's in favor of that. Still, we should
be able to ensure that all are insured.

Many of us would not have a problem with that proposition if "insured"
meant
"insured." It's one thing to protect against unanticipated catastrophic
costs. It's entirely another thing to prepay the costs of routine services
that everyone will incur. Unfortunately, when most people talk about
"insuring" in the context of medical expenses, they're talking about
prepayment, and not insurance.


So, you think it's prudent to wait until there's a catastrophic situation,
rather than pay for the cost of preventative care?
