Its like healthcare. The system doesn't work if you don't pay when you're healthy and only decide to get coverage when you're sick.

On the contrary, it works pretty well, in many countries across the globe. You probably mean some kind of health insurance. In many countries, this insurance is actually a government tax, so you cannot opt out. So the parallel here would be a mandatory "Google Support Tax" :-)
