Can't afford healthcare? Rob a bank for $1 and reap the rewards in jail.

You've got chronic back pain, and nowhere to turn for relief. Thousands of American work their butts off day in and day out are turned down for insurance coverage despite paying their taxes and living civilly obedient. There are only two demographics in our country that are guaranteed health care, active military personnel and inmates (and even the lines for these groups is blurred at times). So you can either continue to suffer without health insurance or you can achieve coverage by joining the military or going to jail. That's what this guy did.  His plan was flawed, as you'll discover in the article, but the care he's receiving in jail is better than nothing.  The important point to take from this article is that a system that leads a guy to do this is clearly broken.  He's not lazy or worthless; he's sick.
