Conversely if overextending yourself for whatever reason had no consequences, it would be to your disadvantage not to overextend yourself. How do we determine who should be "bailed out"? Seems the issues that are unavoidable that could cause ruin (illness/disability) should be addressed at a higher level than borrowing money with no recourse.
- geggam 7y agoI have no issues with socialized medicine. In fact the fact remains medicare is actually the one functioning health insurance we have because the govt sets the rates that can be charged. Unregulated healthcare is silly since people dont have a choice about their health ( not discussing the food choices ) People do have a choice about borrowing money.
- heavenlyblue 7y agoHealth is going to become a bigger problem once we reach a point in the development of our medicine when we could literally heal anyone. Right now government-subsidised healtcare works because keeping yourself healthy simply can not be externalised to the government. But what if I could spend the beat of my years being a coke-snorting socialite hoping to meet someone at one of those parties who would make my life? 20-year alcoholic? Let us grow you a liver for the total of $2M of taxpayer’s money.
