Yeah because when your house is on fire you shouldn't be able to buy fire insurance. How hard is this?

well you could make health insurance mandatory for everyone, but we all saw how that worked out.

"Why should I pay for someone else's sickness?" = Missing the basic concept of insurance in the first place

Insurance is a group of people willingly sharing risk.

Once the government removes the risk it becomes a substity.
