Healthcare insurance priorities

[10fords]

This is not a scientific poll, just my own observations. Near where I live there are a couple of trailer parks. Every one of the trailers has a satellite dish on it. Most of them have a late model truck or SUV with fancy rims on them parked in front. As I have done repairs on a good portion of them I have seen the inside, and most have big screen TV's and a X-box or 2. There is also a large amount of Obama paraphernalia-bumper stickers, posters etc. The ones that I have talked to all say the same thing-I can't afford health insurance, and I voted for Obama because he is going to make it free. Even one of my good friends who has a lot of expensive toys and takes nice vacations often said the same thing. Same with my sister. My newest vehicle is 10 years old. I don't have satellite or cable TV. The vacations for my family have been pretty scarce lately. We have had to cut back on a lot of luxuries, But I STILL HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE! I wonder how many of the supposed 47 million who don't have insurance could actually afford it if they made it a PRIORITY. Cars, electronic gadgets, fancy clothes, vacations etc. are not necessities. Maybe before the govt. gives someone free healthcare they should do an audit on their assets and habits. If you smoke , drink, or use drugs you are automatically disqualified. You must give all your unnecessary assets to the govt. to sell off to help offset the cost. You must be a LEGAL citizen of the U S. I bet that would cut that 47 million down quite a bit.
