This is in my opinion one of the aspects that makes the central courts and the different lines of thought within a single subject so interesting. The clash of ideas that we have in this case is a perfect example.

On one side we have those who look at the current 30 million uninsured Americans, which include millions in Texas, and the undeniable success it had in Massachusetts. Most of them conclude that this mandate is a government success.

On the other hand, we can find those who believe that this is a terrible invasion of the government to the citizen's free will to choose their own healthcare options, they see government overreach, and at the same time an unprecedented intrusion on individual liberties to which there is no justification.

Unfortunately this is something that millions of Americans have been forced into. It's evident how they refused to create a public health care system, and instead give more power to the private sector.

After this short debate of ideas, I will give you one question to ponder on: Which principle is more important? Your freedom, your civil liberties, and your freedom from the government line of thought, or the possibilty of providing health care to millions of uninsured Americans?

I hope this solves your question!

Answer:

An argument for buying insurance may be that it allows people to have a garantee when any kind of medical need comes up.

Explanation:

Having a health insurance will always serve as help, both for emergencies and for regular visits to the doctor. Besides, the truth is that having a private medical treatment, whenever and wherever you need it is better than having to find a place where you can be treated for free, if you ever find one.

However, it is also true that having a health insurance is expensive and not everyone can afford it, so that can serve as an argument against it, and the fact that health insurance companies are known for having you paying even more each day.
