First, you're assuming your cow orkers would be interested in saving your life.

Maybe not the inital bill, because I would be responsible for that first week, but since I have no income they would just have to write off the costs.

No they don't, being in the hospital for a week is not, "not working", besides there is a matter of assets.

But after that I should be good to go.

You're assuming you'll be able to buy health insurance like a case of beer, with no delay, no waiting period.

Pay the fine, since I don't have health insurance, buy insurance, don't have enough to pay for it because I don't have a job, get the government to pay for it. Good to go!

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.
