I think so... the current health care situation is laughable... it's only a matter of time before fewer people are insured than are insured, as costs continue to rise...
I mean, I don't even understand how Republicans don't support it more... don't they realize the billions that businesses would save in the difference between the increase in taxes to pay for the program and what they pay now for healthcare now would be?

i'm for a transformation in the well-being care gadget, yet such as you, no longer socialized drugs. the object itself mentions the motives for the replace, a huge one is how African individuals have a tendency to stay 5 years much less then whites. it is due oftentimes to crime factors and medicines. That has no longer something to do with healthcare. that's extra of a social, criminal subject. that still impacts the beginning fee adjustments the object mentions. (under no circumstances am I saying all african individuals are criminals or drug addicts, yet its sufficient to coach in those stats.) additionally the object did no longer say what the variance is of the international places forward people. maximum of those numbers are purely decimal factors remote from us that is factored out once you're taking away unnatural deaths. a lot of those 40-one international places could purely be a 10th of year longer then us on account that we are conversing approximately averages. So i actually dont think of well-being care is the real subject right here. yet another occasion, well-being care isnt going to do lots approximately individuals eating at McDonalds the two. yet another subject suggested in the object.

Already have it.
It's called HSA. Tey were initiated during Bushes first term.
HSA stands for Health Savings Accounts.
You open a HSA at a Bank by placing 100 or so dollars into it.
They will give you a Debit card to use when medical attention is needed.
Keep placing money into the savings account, like saving monthly.
After $1000 deductable the coverage kicks in. It's called High Deductable insurance.
You are required to pay the $1000 deductable out of pocket.
But, monthly payments are necessary for the high deductable insurance.
If you look at it closely it's really better than Medicare in a lot of areas.

What do you want. All American children to have healthcare, next you'll be letting poor people have the same health as the rich. The compassionate conservatives are taking care of everyone..what's your problem. There's good money to be made in this healthcare thing and you want to ruin it. We've got your double-dipping, overpriced drugs,managed care where your doctor tells you there's nothing wrong with you. And for God's sake please don't give them working people good benefits, they'll just start taking care of their kids. The President says everythings hunky-dory and that's good enough for me.

Actually National Health Care is an idea whose time came long time ago, but you didn't get it because the PRIVATE health lobby is too powerful and rich, and America being a plutocracy, the plight of the vast majority of ordinary people is always forsaken for the interests of the rich and powerful.

I'd like to know when the function of the Federal Government was turned to charity work? Actually there is National Health care system...spend a few years in the military like nearly all other democratic styled nations in the world and then a person qualifies for VA benefits.

No, rather an idea whose time has passed.
Consider this: a competitive new world, led by an Asia unburdened by social promises and entitlements. An Asia able to compete with US economic dominance on price and quality.
Then consider: what will preserve American competitiveness? Slashing the BS obligations that make our labor too expensive.

It is past due. More people are having to file bankruptcy because they do not have health insurance or do not have adequate health insurance and can not pay their bills.
As a person who works in health care, the system is broken and needs to be fixed - soon.
