Medical Insurance

A United States sponsored gambling in the form of health coverage. If you pay for medical insurance you risk paying for a safety net you won't use, or you risk crippling debt when life makes you a cripple.
Since medical insurance doesn't cover most of what I need it for, I am considering dropping it. I'll save my money while I'm alive, and if something bad happens I'll just have them toss me in the ditch.
