Here's an idea about forcing Americans to buy their own health insurance

The idea is very simple. If the mandatory purchase of personal insurance is struck down, it can be replaced by a simpler method to force compliance.

As it stands now, hospitals are compelled by law to treat EVERYONE who shows up whether they are insured or not. If this law were repealed it would mean that hospitals would have the 'option' to turn away those who are uninsured. This way the taxpayer would not have to pay for care that the individual refuses to pay for themselves. All of the other provisions can be kept in place to make insurance affordable for those who cannot afford it, but the choice and risk is the individual's. A responsible person would not take the risk, those who are not will be denied help. It's about time everyone takes responsibility for their own actions and not expect the government to bail them out.
