Just to summarise if you do get free care for any reason sooner or later it does have to be repaid for either in death benefits or ones estate. Phew, think I will have a couple of pints now 😁👍 But "free" care is not free because you pay for it in higher taxes. So you can pay for healthcare through tax payments or take the money you do not pay in taxes and use that to buy health insurance. Either way, you are paying for healthcare.

Of course not, but I do not know of anywhere that this is the case---If you own your home free and clear choosing not to buy homeowners insurance is your prerogative, but it is not if you have a mortgage--you are normally required to have insurance on the structures to cover the lienholder, but normally a person buys homeowner's insurance that covers also liability and contents and other losses. BTW--what does this have to do with the current conversation about medical insurance??? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Die kostenlose Behandlung gilt nur für diejenigen, die nicht versichert sind und nicht zahlen können. Ridg hat hier mehrfach erklärt das er ein armer Hund ist und mittellos ist - und medizinisch durch MEDCARE oder MEDICAID versorgt wird. Institutionen die von DEMOKRATEN eingesetzt wurden. Ridg hasst Demokraten und "leckt den Schwanz von Republikaner Trump" (Analogie zu "Hitler Schwanz lecken" von General TGB 150 !!). Ridg ist also eine Zecke und ein unehrlicher Hetzer, der Demokraten hasst aber von Gesetzen der Demokraten nur überleben kann. Fakt ist: beim Corona-Problem hat das US-Gesundheits-System jämmerlich versagt und Ridge wäre ohne Demokraten.Gesetze schon lange verelendet und tot. Einige haben die von mir geposteten Fakten zu MEDICARE und MEDICAID wohl noch nicht gelesen und fabulieren hier ohne Information. Hier noch einmal die Fakten. Von google auf englisch übersetzt, soweit Amerikaner englisch können. Bernard Shaw sagte schon: "Nichts trennt Engländer und Amerikaner mehr als ihre gemeinsame Muttersprache". 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In both cases if one has the ability to buy insurance and chooses not to do it then that person bears the consequences of that decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Institutions set up by DEMOCRATS. Ridg hates Democrats and "licks the tail of Republican Trump" (analogy to "Hitler licking tail" of General TGB 150 !!). So Ridg is a tick and a dishonest agitator who hates Democrats but can only survive Democratic laws. The fact is, the US health system has failed miserably with the Corona problem and Ridge would be without Democrats. Laws have long been impoverished and dead. Some of you have probably not yet read the facts about MEDICARE and MEDICAID I have posted, and I am fabulous here without information. Here are the facts again. Translated from Google to English as far as Americans can speak English. Bernard Shaw said: "Nothing separates English and Americans more than their common mother tongue". 😁 When did I ever say I "was a poor dog"? Every elderly person in America is eligible for Medicare regardless of how rich or poor they are. Medicare premiums are paid out of Social Security retirement benefits. And I have long-term care insurance through a private insurance company to whom I pay monthly premiums out of my own pocket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
