Do you think we should have Universal Healthcare?

Question

I see so many people on television saying that we should not but I see so many people die from illnesses that could be prevented if they were covered.

Answer 1

Yes! I do believe that everyone deserves health care! Even people who are not lucky enough to have a good paying job with health care!

Answer 2

Of course.

I've read reports that show we'd spend a lot less money if health care in the United States were to become socialised. And France's system is supposed to be pretty good, or at least that's what I've been told. I should really look more into this before I answer questions.

Answer 3

Ok, its really easy to say we should just cover everyone, but the quality of that medical care reduces signicantly when you make it free. For example, I know a few people from Canada, and the story i get from them is, if you have a cold you get treated in Canada, if you have a real problem you go to America and go into debt to get it cured, because the waiting peroid for treatment is too long there. So its give and take.

Answer 4

Yes

There is too much corruption and immorality with many private insurance groups/HMOS. It is very disrimnatory to deny someone healthcare coverage because they have a "pre-existing" condition such as diabetes. A lot of insurance companies are like that.

Answer 5

There are so many people who are working for Min. wage and they do not have health care. They deserve health care the same as anyone else does.The people who say "No" are cold hearted.

Answer 6

Yes. I dont understand why we shouldn't. Do some people not deserve the right to healthcare because they can't afford it???
