Are you kidding?!
I already pay nearly $2000 per year for bare basic shit level coverage w/ like $40 doctor visit co-pays and such. Fuck yeah, I'd pay $420 to have shit fully covered if I could!

I feel absolutely zero sympathy for anyone given such an offer that rejects it.

Full Throttle posted...
His facebook page showed years past that he bragged about the monthly payments and said he saved money a year and said he would never need healthcare as he called it a government tax grab on freedom..

He was diagnosed with aggressive colon cancer metastatic throughout his abdomen and liver and it is incurable so chemotherapy was prescribed to extend his life

But in just 3 months, he accumulated 22,000+ in bills cause he has no insurance and his wife Kristina say they are in a burden as he even askes his doctor if he can delay his chemo until July 1st, so he can opt in for insurance again but the doctor said No, he will die by then if he delays..
I believe a recurring Simpsons character had a catch-phrase for exactly this sort of situation...

206 people opted out of MSP in 2019 where millions of others have opted in to pay..which ironically is now NONE as the government phased out the premiums at the start of this year
Damn, that makes it even funnier!

And bravo to the government for not caving in, and making him live (hopefully) with his poor decisions. I'm sure that rugged individualism will protect him.
