I want you to be happy as you dance but you must pay your own bill as you either drop dead or end up swallowing your face in a nursing home at fifty. It’s your choice and as a libertarian I support that choice. Enjoy your government issued handicap parking sticker and electric shopping cart; I’ll ride my bike. I want the government to leave me alone.
I guess you don't have car, house, or homeowner's insurance, do you? Good then that you have a few mil in the bank and haven't been stopped for a taillight out. Or maybe for the reasons stated, you don't have a car or house or any property and are living in one of those sidewalk tents. That'd work.
I've finally achieved the American Dream of making it all the way to Medicare and Social Security. Luckily, the government forced me to pay my premiums!
The USA is certainly not a Libertarian paradise. There is one, though: Somalia.
