If you need $40,000 for a heart surgery like Homer, most gofundme's, unless they get significant publicity, will never get the money.
When you wreck your car, and you have insurance, you don't pay for the repairs, Everyone who has car insurance with your insurance company does.
So yes, healthy people pay for sick peoples healthcare. When the Healthy people become older and sicker, they too benefit from this system. Broadening the base of who has health insurance, makes these premiums cheaper for everyone. Social Security is ran in a manner, so that young workers, pay for older peoples retirement. When the younger workers turn old, the new generation of younger workers finances the older peoples retirement incomes.
Good drivers, pay for bad drivers, car repairs, that's how car insurance works. The government mandates every car owner gets insurance.
Your idea works best, if you're already profoundly wealthy to afford things regardless if you have insurance or not. If you're not wealthy, then you're SOL.
BTW as for my "incriminating post" that was years and years ago, and the statute of limitations is up.
