Uninsured by insurances

The word Insurance should have send alarm bells when introduced. Most of my life, life insurance agents were the biggest jokers you must avoid as much as possible. But in the US we insure ourselves from everything. It forms the crutches of false security. Only if we could insure ourselves from stupid ideas! How wonderful that would have been. Having said that making buying a health insurance mandatory is just like making car insurance mandatory. If one is fair the other is too.
