If you want people who currently don't have health care, to have it, Start a new charity , we don't need the government forcing it upon everyone.
I have been working since I was 13 too (and that's 30+ years for me). I currently do not have health insurance through my employer because he is me. I cannot afford anything other than very-high-deductible anti-catastrophic coverage, which is basically no coverage unless something serious happens, and then it will only prevent bankruptcy if you are lucky.

Please make your check out to the "KS Healthcare Charity Fund c/o KS Enterprises LLC".

J/K. Actually I have insurance through my girlfriend, as we are are "domestic partners". Thank gawd for gay-rights advocates or I would be SOL.
