"America's health care system is second only to Japan, Canada, Sweden, Great Britain, well...all of Europe. But you can thank your lucky stars we don't live in Paraguay!"
A bit more silly than some of your other videos but thumbs up, sometimes we need some comedy when talking about politics, it takes mercy on our gooey human hearts.
Thank you so much! I had read about the health reform bill and how it was supposed to actually save money and I though "How can they save money by spending more?" This video makes it clear what's going on.
im going to study medicine now through the internet and books...then im going to stock up on first aid kits like there was no tomorrow...because if i have to wait months to be seen, then ill be glad i have my at home kit.
Smoke and mirrors oh and uhh, unicorns... Congress is either becoming very sloppy in their methods (because these kind of things have been taking place and going "unnoticed" for well over a hundred years now) or they have become very brazen. Either way, this kind of "law-making" needs to end.
I love how if you say you dont like this bill "you are against reform and just want the status quo". When in reality I want reform and hate the status quo , but this bill actually will make things worse. I quess in make believe land this will work wonders but here in reality we are in trouble. I remember once as a kid learning about this great place that you had freedoms and choice. We learned to be self suporting and how to work hard. That great place was America. I wonder how to get there now!
My mistake. I meant to say the senate passed it. It has to go back to the house for a final vote. But I'm pretty sure that the power drunk congress will pass it and Obama will sign it.
If the Demoncats are pushing the legislation it means your grandkids just got a bill for something that they never needed to begin with. This is not reform...this is a blantant attempt at a socialist takeover of our country. The midterm elections can't get here soon enough.
@Thorien175 Call me crazy but, I live for the day when our unaccountable, out of control government , who lives under a separate set of rules will be given the opportunity to control every aspect of my life.Don't we all want that? Its always a huge comfort to know my legislators pass laws that do not affect them personally. Who could argue with that. I mean really, why waste our time with a representative democratic Republic,when you have pencil pushing eggheads in Washington. Sign me up!

They'd better change that Medicare cut. If they leave it, Medicare patients will be like those on MediCal- Discriminated against and given sub-par care from doctors and hospitals more focused on profits than health.
THE ONLY TRUE FIX FOR OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM IS TO REMOVE THE FINANCIAL EQUATION. UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE NOW!!

Now, I'll translate your post. "I'd rather keep things the way they are so only those who have money can get access to good health care, and all the poor people can go and die. I'm also a conservative hypocrite because I say that the government should stay out of people's lives but I also say they should be involved in people's lives when it comes to personal decisions that my religion doesn't agree with."
More generally, let us examine every other nation that has implemented UHC. In every one, the access and quality is poor, with anyone able to afford it choosing to add private insurance out of pocket. The poor get sick and die on wait lists, the rich can still get care.
We have several programs to help the poor get coverage now. The (imperfect) system now is for: the wealthy, the poor, the employed... most all who want it.
i live in canada...there is no such thing as no fincancial equation with universal healthcare...the difference is government control and rationing...no matter what you do there is still a cost...you need to understand economics
if america does universal healthcare it becomes mediCal for all

If there is universal health care, there will be no discrimination about what health "insurance" you have and how much they pay the hospital. Since you admit you're in Canada, you don't seem to understand how the "almighty dollar" has corrupted America's health care system.
Not as good as I was hoping. You basically just made one good point and then turned the second half into a joke which confused my understanding of said point. But don't worry, I am still a loyal subscriber. Keep up the good fight.
The political classes have staged a coup d'etat, wherein d'etat has disenfranchised the people. They're looting the country, taking everything that is not bolted down. And if it's bolted down, their passing legislation to give them a toolbox.
I apologize that this one isn't more like that. Unfortunately this concept, while really important, doesn't lend itself as well to that treatment. It's more of a "soft concept" subject rather than the hard numbers. I'll get cracking on some new stuff in the new year, I promise.
Don't get me wrong, I gave you 5/5 and all becuase your videos are always legit. I just love when you break things down. I have the same concept and when I show off your videos to people and their eyes light up (like the cap of water from the barrel) and I think it helps get the point hard with a mighty stamp

@HermieHedgehog:
Let me translate your comment here:
"To fix out health care system, we must eliminate the incentives to invest financial or personal capital in it. Woo Hoo, Universal Health Care."
I am going to propose an alternate solution:
"Get the hell off my lawn." By which I mean "Keep the government from anticompetitive tinkering and pandering with the force of law."
In short: free, national markets in health insurance and tort reform.
Or would that be too much freedom for us commoners?

and the canadian healthcare system is nearing insovency and just like americas will be
also do you know what the average profit margin is for the insurance industry is? 3.3 percent thats WAY below average profit in business
there does neeed to be a fix in healthcare but a government take over is not the way to do it
