If I can't afford insurance, I surely can't afford $1900, $3600, or
$25000.  A year in jail with free medical treatment sounds a lot better
than going into debt borrowing money to pay their fines.
This country needs a real makeover.  It is just not right that a
criminal can get medical treatment but a law abiding taxpayer cannot.
This is the kind of change I was hoping to see, but no, it is not to be.
