Legend, whose song “All of Me” is currently the #2 single on iTunes in the U.S., responded to some of his critics:
@RealPutneySwope yeah, fuck health insurance. that shit is stupid.

@RealPutneySwope The insurance companies already limited people's choices. The new law gives more protection from insurance companies.

Well, well…
Update:
Legend doesn’t feel like arguing with the “ObamaHaters” anymore:
Ok, it's been fun arguing with ObamaHaters. Anyway, if you don't want insurance, don't get it. Good luck to you and your family.

“If you don’t want insurance, don’t get it.” Thanks for acknowledging that purchasing health insurance shouldn’t be mandatory, John!
