Obamacare, the Young Invincibles and Congress

Political Cartoons by Nate Beeler
Will a PR campaign convince healthy twentysomethings to buy insurance if they don’t want to?
"Lost in a spirited online debate last week about what young, healthy people — so-called invincibles — will pay for insurance on the Obamacare exchanges is a mundane truth: Some people don’t want to buy health insurance and will refuse to buy it no matter what the government says.
"That’s especially true of the invincibles, whose participation in the Affordable Care Act is crucial. If they don’t sign up for insurance on the exchanges, the federal health-care law could implode almost as soon as it goes live on New Year’s Day, 2014."

"I wonder how many of these people voted for Obamacare?"
