No they don't, being in the hospital for a week is not, "not working", besides there is a matter of assets.
You're assuming you'll be able to buy health insurance like a case of beer, with no delay, no waiting period. Assets man, assets, plus income earned previously in the year with those fat contracts. If the poor people can get insurance without paying for it, why the fuck would they not have insurance? duh. 
It's the people that can afford it that have to make a choice, get to gamble. But that's a narrow band between, free to the poor, and we'll wipe you out with an emergency. |
I think the person with assets could get away with sheltering them if he did it prior to getting sick, your right, it would be a chance, but I do think it could be done. My example was of the guy who had none or minimal to begin with. Those are the people who are hurt the most by a catastrophic event.
