Interestingly, the case about firemen not helping someone who didn't pay the out-of-county fire coverage fee also relates directly to health care. The reason they didn't help is because if someone was hurt fighting a fire they weren't supposed to be fighting, their health insurance wouldn't have covered it. If there had been universal health care, this would not have been an issue. Many screwed up incentives in the US result from lack of proper health coverage.
