Have you noticed that you're not allowed to drive around in an uninsured car? Why? Because it's the law that you must be insured. And what happens if you're caught without car insurance? You pay a fine.
Hey everybody! Let's abolish car insurance!!!
There is a big difference between car insurance and ACA. The government does not tell you that you have to own a car. Owning and driving a car is a privilege not a right. The government does not go to people that do not own a car and say you have to pay for car insurance even though you dont own a car, because if spreading the burden of car insurance over everyone will lower the cost for all. Government does not say when you go to get your car insured tell us your income because the more you make the more you should have to pay so that people that make less can better afford car insurance. Instead they ask you what kind of car what year and how much do you drive. They also look at your driving record. Then they ask you how much coverage do you want.
No one that does not own a car and does not drive a car has ever been made to pay a fine for not having car insurance. People that do not want health insurance and do not have health insurance are being fined for not signing up.
It is our right to live our life free. We are free to work or not work and work as hard as we like. If we are blessed with a skill or intelligence it is our right to use it or squander it as we best, see fit. If we think the money we earn would better be spent on something else we should be free to do that.
I just had stone chip in my windshield that turned to a crack and I called my car insurance company. They reminded me I had $500 deductible and told me the cost was just under 500 and I was SOL. I could have had glass breakage on my insurance but I chose to keep my money and take the chance I didnt have glass breakage and I lost.
Having any kind of insurance has never been a right in this country.
