we're fukked?
Why, people should all have health care, the same as we have police and fire protection.
I have to say status que wasn't going to cut it, so something being done to shake things up is better than nothing.

Brock this is obviously your Canadian wife speaking.
It's unAmerican for everyone in the country to be able to receive healthcare.
Healthcare should be a privilege reserved for the rich.
Fukkin commie.

Why don't we just give people food, clothing, and homes while we're at it? Why give anyone any incentive to work whatsoever... isn't everyone ENTITLED to a good life from the government?
You do realize that communism failed miserably don't you? If we don't learn from history we're doomed to repeat it. Us humans have proven to be lazy creatures who will do the least possible to get by... without incentive to work we won't and the country will crumble.

Here's a thought...Do you really want the government running anything else? They have proven they can't run a god damn lemonade stand.
People get impatient waiting for their picture to be taken at the DMV. How are you going to feel when you need a tourniquet?
Quality of care will suffer. Save this post and read it in 2015.

it'll just be gov. health insurance that you still have to pay for.
no actual hospital for us to go to. I just put a band aid on everything and pray I don't croak suddenly one day.
Medical industry has too much clout for free hospitals to ever be a reality. I'm moving to Toronto.
We have a money making machine somewhere in California or Boston. We'll just create more money. Either that or borrow it from the banks and bail them out again

This is a license for insurance companies to rob this country blind just like Bush gave the oil companies free reign to rob us blind. If they could run health care with not for profit co-ops it might work, otherwise it is doomed to failure.

Minus the communism reference, this post is perfect. No one has a right to health care. More importantly, I'm already paying for my own and my families. I don't want to play for any one else. Period.

I was wondering...if everyone has the right to health care, don't I have the right to keep what I earn? I mean, I worked for it.
What a concept.

nice
You pricks keep paying for your insurance and see if they stonewall you when you need medicine. Then maybe you'll decide people deserve treatment when they're sick and not paper work/insurance mumbo jumbo.

Better everyone has healthcare, than some fool show up in an emergency room with a million dollar medical problem that coulda been cured for 60 bucks in medicine.

It is what it is... I worked hard to get where I'm at and I have to pay for someone who doesn't take care of themselves health care?
W/E We need to educate people on how to take better care of themselves I don't wanna pay for recurring health problems because some doofus doesn't wanna put down the pipe.

Yes, ask them how they like it. Many come to the United States for care because theirs is sub par. I refuse to go to a doctor that is given to me. I will go where I feel is best for me.
