No, it would just make the money worth less.

Absolutely NOT. Raising the amount of dollars in circulation will only de-value the currency and end up making it weaker with respect to other foreign currency.

Well.. it could just as it has covered the cost of the war partially BUT that would only increase the national debt.
Now with that said, in the words of Cheney, "Reagan taught us that deficits don't matter." So, what should it matter.

A little research in monetary policy is needed. Printing more money raises inflation, and lowers the value of the dollar. The only solution to high health care costs is to allow hospitals and general practitioners to compete in an open market.

No because when you increase the dollars in circulation then you devalue it. $10 becomes $5 as an example. In my opinion by providing health care to its citizens it would actually cost less then it does now, for many reasons, and you get a healthier country in the process.

No. Printing more money just reduces the value of the money. It's called inflation. A major task of the government is to try to keep the value of the currency steady.

This is a great idea! Hey come to think of it, why not print tens times as much money? I'm into it. Fortunately I do have a good bit of gold and silver stashed away, as do most of us rich Libs (actually I really do, enough to pay my property taxes until I die, thank God).
Hey, think of all the people this would help, especially people from Mexico, you are all racists.

Turning away illegal immigrants is the only way. Americans and only Americans should have health care.
