Assuming you are between the ages of 20 to 35 you have very little to be worried about. Colds don't require medical attention and unless you are into skydiving or riding motorcycles you will be fine. Especially since in 2014 you can apply for healthcare through the ahca government exchange. Of course that also means the world is going to end so we are all screwed.

I am in my 40s, and had two back surgeries actually.


You just made my day, I'm not the oldest guy on this site. .  Have you looked at catastrophic care? At least it would be something until 2014 kicks in.

In my case, I went from 40 hours to 30 hours a week.  I lost my Medicaid, because I am over the limit for Medicaid.  I am not sure what to look into.  My pay is not stable.  I take a hit due to technical issues, and I don't get paid.  Normal job, equipment doesn't work, you get paid.  Contractor?  Nope.  Call in, they send replacement, and and I lose a day and a half due to things being out.  At least than $10/hr base, it is an issue.  BIG issue.   

And I also post, seeing if the usual political suspects I do battle with have anything to chime in about.  I have a feeling I won't get a peep out of them.  The free market is supposed to resolve everything apparently.  Go figure.  Just curious what can be done.  I did contact Christian Republicans on Facebook and ask them if the Spirit of God was sufficient in light of a lack of health insurance.
