I'm well nigh sixty, am uninsured, have preexisting conditions, have been unemployed long enough that I'm on food stamps, have run out of unemployment benefits and am selling my blood plasma to get a few dollars.

And I think Kucinich is right, mandated private insurance is a vile idea and IMO unconstitutional.

There are some things more important to me than my own personal well being, not sending people to prison because they are poor is one of those things that I consider more important.

Debtors prisons went out of style a long time ago, I don't want to see them come back and that's what mandated private insurance will effectively do.

I invite your flames, I have my Nomex underoos on.

Edited due to poster's caffeine deficiency..
