Eh, those of us living in more populated states have had for decades to pay a universal access fee on telephones so that people who chose to live out in bumf*ck nowhere could have phone service, as it's not profitable for phone companies to provide service to less populated areas and the only way to get them to do it was for the government to fund it. Somehow we survived and the nation did not fall to communism. I suppose I'll survive paying $63 a year so my fellow Americans with cancer and diabetes and hypertension can get health insurance.

As it is, each family already currently pays $1000 a year for people without health insurance who get their medical care at the emergency room. If $63 a year reduces the $1000 a year we currently pay, I consider that a good deal all around.
