Touche :  )   Prisoners get medical through the prison system I believe its 
the state's responsibility to provide for their medical needs.

Or makes it sound like it's only there for when you fall, otherwise you're 
on your own 

We have Medicare (paid tor in wages taxes, that can be SUPPLEMENTED not 
replaced by private insurance, mainly for seniors and the disabled).  We 
also have MediAid for low income.  America is not a universal state yet but 
providing mainly for the poverty stricken, disabled and seniors. If you 
work and make over so much you're on your own, till maybe the ACA (I think 
they offer more options-- but don't quote me-- I have medical thru the 
military and VA so I don't know whats up with medical insurance), before 
that I had none and have the scars to prove it.
