The Anti-Universal Coverage Club

July 14th, 2008 | by Brian T. Schwartz |

This post signals my desire to join the Anti-Universal Coverage Club.

The linked post offers several reasons.  One simple reason follows from what an Investors Business Daily editorial pointed out:

An astounding 20% of all uninsured have [household] incomes over $75,000. These are people who can afford coverage.

Forcing such people to have insurance is merely a means of exploiting them, that is, forcing them to pay premiums that pay for other people’s medical care.
