Obamacare explained
#10
I can see your point, but how would you regulate something like that? Sometimes in an emergency it is a matter of seconds between life and death. What if you or someone else is rock climbing and falls, and doesn't have identification with them, or maybe even more likely what if you are robbed and your wallet is stolen and you are shot? You are unconscious without any ID. You will die if they do not get you into surgery immediately there is no time to check try to figure out who you are and if you have insurance or not. Now for you, that's fine because you didn't get coverage, but what about the other vast majority of people who do have coverage? It would not be fair for them that the operation isn't performed because the hospital didn't know who they were.

There is just no feasible way to not provide coverage to everyone who doesn't have insurance while providing coverage for everyone who does.
