AutObama Care

Independent radio talk show host Neal Boortz make some good points about the President's comparison of Heath insurance and auto Insurance.

Here's what he said:

I'll try to make this simple ... so that even a Democrat can understand it.
In most states you are NOT required to have automobile insurance unless three conditions are met:
1. You have a valid driver's license
2. You own a motor vehicle
3. You drive that motor vehicle on public highways
Does a 12-year-old riding with a friend to school have to have auto insurance? No. Neither, for that matter, does a 32-year-old. So Obama's ridiculous comparison dies right there.
But wait! There's more! When it comes to auto insurance, most states say that you only must have insurance to protect the OTHER GUY! You buy health insurance to protect yourself.


You can also throw in the fact that we all will need health care at some point in our lives. Not a good business model for insurance, reguardless.
