Never turn down Health care, especially if you can afford it.

Most of the doctors makes you wonder how or who in the hell put them in that position to TRY to care for human beings. BLM my ass it should be VLM.

Are you required to have it? yes. Once you hit 65 you must apply for medicare. you don&#39;t have to use it but, by law, you must have it.
