I agree with Dr. Paul. Like I've said before in previous posts, having health insurance is not the only option. The question was basically framed like this:
If a young person does not have health insurance, and they suffer a critical injury, then they are going to die.
In direct response to the moderator's question 'should society let that person die?' Ron Paul immediately said 'No'. Leave it to the media outlets to NOT focus on his response, but instead lead everyone to believe that he is in favor of letting people die.
Can we really not think of a way to deal with healthcare that exists outside of a government mandate? It would be great if government could facilitate a program for providing quality cost efficient health care, but I don't see that happening. One can only look at the other government run entitlements and programs that are going broke.
