If I offered you a health plan that covered all your health care needs from office visits to hospitalization and all related procedures and tests and physician services (excluding dental, routine vision and long-term care) with no deductibles or co-pays and I told you it would cost you $8.00 for every $100 you earn, would you take the deal?
We can’t control what others do and we can’t stop misfortune from striking. But we can control our own actions. Those who are financially prudent will most likely enjoy success, even if events don’t always go their way.

I voted as having questions, because, I would object to an 8% across the board, all income included system – earnings from all sources, including capital gains, proprietor profits, interest earnings, investment earnings, capital gains from sale on personal residence, etc. What’s the fee for a child in school? What’s the fee for a non-working spouse? What’s the fee for an unemployed individual?
But, I suspect you are asking about something else. So, now that I don’t have any wages because I am currently unemployed, I would pay $0. If I am retired, I would pay $0 because I have no wage “earnings”? If what you have in mind is say 8% of what has been known as FICA wages, I would be a no, because it gets the incentives all wrong and will ultimately result on dumping on future generations.
