are the uninsured willing to die?

Those who opposes Obama's Healthcare plan says it is unconstitutional for congress to force people to buy healthcare insurance. Well said. Indeed in our land of freedom, we have a choice what to buy and what not to buy. On the otherhand, if those uninsured gets sick and are brought to the ER, the hospitals are obligated by law to treat them until they are stable regardless of their ability to pay for that service. In effect, the government and those insured covers the treatment they received. Those who have health insurance will received higher bills to cover the expenses of those that do not have insurance. So perhaps those uninsured who refuses to buy insurance, since they are free to do so, should be left to die if they get sick. Why should those who pay for their insurance have to cover the medical treatment the uninsured receives? Where is the freedom of the insured to refuse paying for the uninsured???

All that talk about the government curtailing their freedom to buy or not to buy health insurance is bullshit until the uninsured are willing to die if they get sick. Cause we all know, if the hospital do not treat and stabilized the sick uninsured, there will be more scream and talk about the government not taking care of its constituent.
