...Why can't I have it??????
The guy in the federal prison system that has proven that he can't live or function in normal society to such a degree that he'll never contribute to it in a positive way gets all his needs taken care of.
many of the prisoners at Gitmo aren't terrorists...but some are. These people that would kill the children of the "Great Satan" (USA) by the millions if they could? THEY get taken care of with the best we have to offer. They get preventative MRIs for heaven's sake.
If THESE people get it and it's fine, why is government sponsored, single-payer care bad for me? Someone who contributes. Someone who is a decent person and has never purposely harmed another, why do I (or you) deserve less than these people?

Providing benefits to molesters and terrorists is giving premium to the commission of crimes. These felons must be given the harshest penalty to prevent people from committing crimes.

I couldn't agree more. I have had MANY medical problems in my life and I'm still trying to catch up on medical bills. And I HAVE insurance. I believe that health care should be available to all without charge. We shouldn't have to decide between health care and rent or groceries. But a lot of times something has to give. There must be a way to do this. I don't pretend to have all the answers but what if employers contributed what they currently pay for health insurance to a general fund that will cover everyone? Get rid of government waste (yea, right!) and use that money to provide care. Why not provide free education to students who wish to be doctors in exchange for a set amount of time that they will work for a reduced salary? If we could all work together, maybe we could figure out a solution that will benefit everyone. I wish I didn't have to pay so much for health care. I'm going broke from having so many co-payments!

you really dont want it,you just think you do...you are under the impression that the system of hospitals and doctors we have today would be the one treating you under a socialized system...you need to do a little research before you ask for that...our current system would die a quick death under Gov imposed restriction and regulations...no Doc is going to give you the first class care you can have now for the 50.00 a visit fee the Gov would allow....

2 answers here. 1) Many people want what has illuded this country thanks to the people who were wise enough to steer us away from MORE government.
2) It sounds silly, but listen to this speech (4 minutes) as to what national health care really means. It just makes sense.

...I hear you on the whole "prisoners have it better thing" but I'd rather they be in there.

Dude I couldn't agree with you more. It is a travesty that law abiding citizens of this great and beautiful country of ours have to pay through he nose for any decent health care. I work my tail off to stay off government assistance. And I can barely afford to cover my son and I with my insurance plan. My wife has no insurance because her company plan is just way to expensive. It is so ridiculous that for all the taxes we pay the federal government couldn't find some way of helping those people who are dire need of health care services. But instead the fuc*ing loosers who commit the most despicable of crimes get some of the best medical attention that money can buy. I believe that if they are going to get medical their families should have to pay for it like we have to pay for our own families health expenses and not our taxes.

the same reason a single mom who works two jobs cant get food stamps or a dad who works 3 jobs to put his kids through college WE WORK you need to have a jail record or a drug problem then you get rent money and health coverage for free!

you can get the same as the prisoners, all you have to do is break the law, get caught, and be sentenced to prison,.....after you get to the prison, you just might get married to a big guy named Rock, in the little prison chapel,.....

You can get free health care for you and/or your entire family if you can't afford it yourself. Every single state offers it. CA has MediCal, AZ has AHCCSS, etc.

Get active. Contact your gov. officials. Get your family and friends envolved. Don't just contact them once or twice. Do it all year round.
