8. I'm against mandatory participation.
Edited on Mon Aug-01-05 03:36 PM by Ron Mexico
Where's the harm if I'm paying into the system but don't want to be treated by it? Where's the harm if I choose to get treated outside the system?

I'm very familiar with Canada's system and want no part of anything like it, especially since I'm so close to 45. I lived in England and don't want anything like their system, either. Also, where you get this "cheaper" idea is something that interests me - have a source?

At any rate, what would be wrong with taking care of those who need it and not forcing those who don't need help to participate?
