  • HEY dingleberry! I lost my health care because of Obama's bill. They jacked my rates through the roof because of OBAMA and his incompetence. It's worse then rationed care, it's NO CARE because of incompetents who supported our boy president who spent a trillion dollars on stimulus that ended up costing over 260K for every job created. Now "O" wants another 500 billion to waste. He has expanded the Federal Govt. by 28% in just 2 years. - No - it's the Obama Health Care Horror Show, Get it?

  • If you plan on making ignorant, tea-bag replies to my posts, be assured that I won't read them.

  • @DMollaun1 Better the Tea Party then the Flea Party. Did you hear the latest news? They arrested an Occupy protester for selling heroin,  last week one was exposing himself to kids and another raped a girl in her tent. The Tea Party on the other hand is responsible and Godly. Get your mind out of the gutter concerning tea bags, oh I forgot.... you can't. Don't you find it ironic that Anderson Cooper is joking about tea bags?

  • Thumbs up. I come from Denmark where there is free healthcare and I have a some things to say:

    1) It works even after 10 years of right winged government trying to dismantle it.

    2) It won't turn you in to a baby eating Communist-terrorist.

    3) Our high taxes are results of other things, there are also other countries with free health care and they have low taxes.

  • @Sohave High, for-profit health insurance premiums are a tax of another variety. It's a matter of paying less for more with universal insurance -- something we didn't get, but we can always hope. This reform will help many though.

  • @Sohave their killing lot's of elderly there and in Holland with those health care systems.

  • @stingray650 If you are including my country Denmark in "there" I cant see what you are pointing at. And the matter of Euthanasia which i believe is what you are refering to with "killing elderly" that is something they have in Holland and we don't have in Denmark, weather you want to have that or not is a different discusion than healthcare. same thing with abortion or medical marihuana that can also both be practice or outlawed with the public healthcare system or private health insurance.

  • Total profit of all 13 health insurers in the Fortune 500 last year was....$25 billion.

    Total amount of waste and fraud in Medicare last year (far low end estimate) was...$60 billion

    So government confiscates the hard-earned private property of hard-working Americans, gives large amounts to those who don't work, and shamelessly THROWS AWAY more than double the total profit of the largest health insurers, we are supposed to believe that government is good, and private industry is bad? BS.

  • Republisaurs actually existed right up till the early 21st century.

  • @commonsensedoc -- You are the one full of Bull Shit.

  • How can I possibly argue with such eloquence and unbridled genius?? You are a true representative of the state of the liberal left in America. I yield to your superior wit and skill. PS, Senator Scott Brown. Deal with it.

  • How is one to argue with such unalduterated brilliance? The sheer genius of your reply forces me to yield to the withering eloquence and might of your well-crafted argument. Game, Set, Match to you sir!! You are a true representative of your liberal progressive masters. I stand corrected.

    PS. Senator Scott Brown. Ha ha ha ha ha.

  • @commonsensedoc - I am so honored to be praised by such an effusive use of language ......sir..... Too bad that Scott Brown is the only form of solice that Teabag cretins, like yourself, can gleen from his election. I myself believe that Presidents State Of The Union and the proverbial ass kicking he gave the house Repub members in Baltimore was just plain "withering eloquence". But enough of this sophistry, you are still full of Bull Shit.......sir!

  • Dear Acorn-holer - firstly, it is spelled "Solace". Secondly, the correct word is "Glean". I give you full dispensation as a borderline retard who is a product of government schooling, so I am quite proud you can find the time to ascend from Mother's Basement to try to insult me, despite your inability to utilize the King's English properly.

  • @commonsensedoc - Thanks for the corrections. Being a retard, I should have known that I couldn't possibley insult someone like you. You have to have character to be insulted. You are just a bloviating, pompus ass Bull Shitter!

  • Possibley = Possibly

    Pompus = Pompous

    Yu Ar Smahrt.

  • @commonsensedoc - Damn, where's spell check when you need it? Anyway I'm sure a pontificating, POMPOUS ass, like you, POSSIBLY gets the drift of what this toothless hillbilly, out here in cyberlachia, is try'n to say.....it pisses ya off DON'T it?

  • Secondly, I strongly encourage you to continue in your delusion that Scott Brown was an anomaly, O'Barry gave the Republicans an "Ass-Kicking", and that November will be anything short of a tsunami-like bloodbath, littered with the fragmented remains of other hippie liberal Marxist whack-jobs like yourself. That way, it will come as a complete surprise, just like the very first time that you touch a woman to whom you have not first given a credit card.

  • @commonsensedoc - Yeah, you may be right on this. I have no faith in the American people to do the correct thing politically. They continue to vote against their own interests almost everytime. And with the big money from you and other big corporations, I sure you an your kind will be able to buy the next election.

  • Thirdly, when faced with overwhelming knowledge, facts, and cogent argument you resort to name-calling, as it is all you have. The people are on to this plot, and it won't work any longer.

    Get used to the notion that the Senate seats held by Ted Kennedy, Joe Biden, and Barry Ocommunist himself will ALL be in the hands of people who actually believe in the United States Constitution, individual liberty, free enterprise, and rewarding work instead of failures, such as yourself.

  • PS, nice Nazi video on your page...yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, you're not really a Nazi, you just have an incredible fascination with them and want to put videos of them on your public profile, but that doesn't make you a Nazi or anything, right??? Right???? Right???????

  • @commonsensedoc -- I've got several. I noticed that you have nothing on yours. Devoid of any personality or character. Is that what you want others to think of you? I don't. Like I said before I think you are just a bloviating, pompus ass BullShitter!

  • Repukes have government backed health insurance options for themselves and there families, paid for by tax payers, yet they want to stop this option from being available to their so called constituents even though they would have to pay for it. The lying disgraceful repukes have never proposed a new idea there only mission is to serve the lobbyists that pay them to keep things the way they are, by spreading lies, misinformation deception and fear.

  • Ya Richard! The RepubliKKKans are at the Town Hall meetings saying, "Keep government out of our healthcare and but don't touch my Medicare!"  Good God, the brainless zombies out there should scare the shit out of everyone!

  • The GOP is probably the most evil party in the western democratic world I think. Bunch of lying scumbags.

  • The ReFlubLieRant Party/ Had their hearty/ Destruction of the USA last term/ And the one before/ No holds barred/ You diseased worms/ Take away your fascist crap/ & Don't ever come back/ Your stink's that of pond scum/ No more con(vict)servatives/ Won't die must live/ You rickin murderous bums/ You hate the poor/ You wealthcare whores/ We'll make you give it back/ New sheriff in town/You freaks go down/ To hell you sorry hacks! hhaaaahaaa!
  • SOCIALISM - All police forces in America are socialist - don't hear the repugnicans complaining about that.

    "socialized" healthcare is the best in the WORLD in German, Japan, Taiwan plus others.

    What do the repugnicans talk about? Canada.

    Go watch Frontline "Sick around the world" for how well it works. Then you'll know that repugnicans are simply pocketing cash from the "for profit" healthcare corporations.

  • this is left wing propaganda at its finest.

  • what is wrong with republicans? Instead of disrupting town hall meetings with your 3 year old fits they should send you guys to education camps.

  • I have faith that the Demos will cave in to the Repubs on this issue. We the people will continue to be at the mercy of these Insurance company vultures. We will likely get a watered down Health Reform Bill passed through Congress with no real change that benifits the American people. The Repubs will announce it as "a Landmark bill that protects all Americans". The Demos will say "there are alot of good items in the bill for the people, but at this time it is the best that we can do".

  • We should all become Israeli dual citizens, that way all Americans will be able to have access to Universal Healthcare in Israel that USA subsidizes.

  • i wouldnt argue that conservative values messed up health care. bush raised medicare and medicaid spending and social security spending. the only wrong with health care is the regulations on doctors and the fact that 50% is government paid. thats not conservative. bush is just a liberal in disguise who pushes right-wing religious/war stuff. fiscally he's almost as bad as our hopey changer in chief.

  • what? Bush was a total neo conservative. He did everything neocons wanted to do for the last 30 years. Wars, tax cuts for the rich, deregulation, etc etc.

    because the result is disgusting you pretend he's not conservative?

  • Comment removed

  • barney frank might know as much, but not the tens of millions of conservatards who voted Bush in

  • Lstanley38  Libertarians are rich anarchists . They hate government , period. In reality , they were born in the wrong era of history. Libertarians are just feudal lords in a time warp without a country or century to park in.

  • The Republican "Big Lie": Low income, (the poor), housing loans that went bad caused the financial crisis that we're in. Bullshit! That played a extremely small part. That fact is that over 30 years of continuous deregulation, by Republicans, of banking and other financial institutions has caused this crisis.

  • unfortunately the dems were in on this too. The dems have become more centrist to get some of big business on their side.

  • Corporate Deregulation started under the Reagan administration and was amplified during the W. Bush presidency which led to the economy mess we're in.

  • true the GOP is a front for corporate America and the DNC comes in a close second.

  • Libertarians say make money, no regulations and those that can't be damned!

  • Republican scare tactics lost their election for them and they just won't learn.

  • The rationed care argument made by republicans is a joke. The US system rations care by simply eliminating large numbers of people from the system. Also, in the US when your benefits run out, ready or not and still sick or not, they send you home. By their definition of rationed care, it is already happening in the US everyday.

  • this make no sense. they mean rationing like what is going on in europe and canada. like in canada the waiting list for gynecological surgery is 4-12 weeks and tonsillectomy 3-36 weeks. or how there are as many 25,000 unnecessary cancer deaths in britian. or when the government says you cant buy a certain medicine if you are willing to pay full price because it is unfair. we have problems with our system but thats because over 50% of health care expenditures in our country are made by the gov.

  • Hey everybody, post this vid on all of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" videos... it'll give Single Payer coverage it deserves (not getting it in MSM, that's fer sure)

    RIP MJ, RIP Farrah.... pray to bring Single Payer back on the table!

  • Someone else said it best, hat tip to unknown commenter. Democrats do not vote lockstep like Republicans in Congress, therefore conservative Democrats have kept Single Payer dead, even though Dems are the majority now!. We are damned if we do and damned if we don't vote for Democrat Congresspersons. The only way out of this trap is to vote the incumbents out who vote down Single Payer, otherwise we will continue to be the only Western Industrialized nation that screws its own people!!!

  • "This administration would destroy the American health care system."--Is there anything about it worth saving in the first place?

  • health care for profit is understandable,

    todays gouging of healthcare,is not.

  • How about some facts for a change?

    The World Health Organisation did a study about the quality and the costs of health care.

    Let's compare the rating and the costs per head in France and some countries with a public option with the American system.

    France Rating 1Costs 3944.37

    UK Rating 18Costs 3335.25

    Germany Rating 25Costs 3926.75

    Finland Rating 31Costs 3013.77

    And Finally:

    America: Rating37 Costs 6940.29

    For health care free market seems to do a really good job!!!

  • That woman ate the last scrap of palin's tiny brain. Now she'll have to depend on drunken hubby todd to enforce abstinence in their household. Great video!

  • It doesn't matter who's in office. We'll never have one payer health care because even Obama is in the pockets of the health care industry. The biggest industry in the US is insurance. The second biggest is marijuana. I think the weed lobby isn't doing it's part!

  • We fight your wars,we go along with your agenda,we get lead poison and tainted milk from China, we are not welcome any where in the world and we don't deserve the minimun health care for our children.

    Health,shelter and food are the minimun requirements in a democratic nation and hard working American, the average American is suffering your bad administration and manipulation of the tax payers money, Octomom gets millions and what do we get nothing but dick and bush pubics.

  • LOL!! Give us a bureaucratic government takeover, a rationed, socialized health care plan. It is better than what we have now. NOTHING!!

  • universal heath care works fine in every industrialized nation. the republicans are just cry babies. they dont want it because they are in bed with the private insurance compaines lining their pockets on the side. dirty rotten republicans need to be overthrown as quickly as possible.

  • Barbaric, corrupted, lobbying/corrupting, ...I read an excellent article on the New Yorker about 5 years ago, and in it they explainned why meds in the Us are so outrageously expensive: they spent around 4 BILLIONS/year in TV ads alone. Now add all the media circulating, Newspapers, mags, internet.... All those idiots saying it does not work in Europe/Canada don't

  • Government controlled healthcare, my ass. The healthcare insurance companies already controll what they will or will not pay for. Surgeries they will approve of. Remember the deaths with HMO????????? Old man NIXON, " its free". WOW. Health ins companies controll your politicians that have STOCK in the companies. Don't get me started on drug companies. DAMN.

  • Over the next 10 years — from 2010 to 2019 — [these industry lobbyists] are pledging to cut the rate of growth of national health care spending by 1.5 percentage points each year — an amount thats equal to over $2 trillion.

    By an amazing coincidence, $2 trillion is just enough to pay for Obamas proposed government takeover of the health care sector. Who's is in who's pockets. As we the consumer will pay the price. GET GOV. out of Healthcare

  • Who are these bought and paid for politicians kidding? The profiteers' takeovers have already happened: The takeover of Congress, the takeover of both political parties through generous campaign donations, the takeover of our right to choose health care providers, the takeover of our freedom to leave a job we don't enjoy because of the health insurance tether, the takeover of our pocketbooks and good cheer as they siphon off profits from the system made to order for the good of their companies.

  • SupportWeThePeopleKB "the takeover of our freedom to leave a job we don't enjoy because of the health insurance tether"

    You just expressed an excellent case against the so-called Libertarians out there! The insurance companies do not just put our lives in jeapordy (as if that wasn't bad enuf), they block our liberty & pursuit of happiness too, for CORPORATE PROFITS.

  • It's important for all Americans know that the current Senate and House drafts have taken Single Payer OFF THE TABLE. We Americans cannot take this lying down anymore! We have to demand Single Payer Universal Healthcare for all, that is what the majority of Americans want, who cares what the insurance lobbyists want !

    Please everyone watch this video:

    /watch?v=mo_Z3loWE1A

  • yea this system works well for those in germany,

    if you get hurt you just got to the doctor. it free! yeahheee.

    but if you get sick.....you go to switzerland where you pay for the service of getting better, this is the same for canada as well. get your head out of the sand.

  • biomansoil bullshit. My friend was cured of OVARIAN CANCER by Canadian surgeons while she & hubby were vacationing in Canada from Oregon! Her husband left Canada with higher hotel bill than intended, but NO MEDICAL BILLS.

  • Could you please elaborate as per where do you get your info about european/Canada system? For everything you are stating here is UNTRUE.I am European, I live in the US and all my family are in Canada. hence, I KNOW what I talk about

  • I too would like to know the answer to that. I am American and have never been to Canada but I have met a lot of people from there and I have never heard them complain about their health care. Canada should sue them for slander.

  • Single payer a must

  • Republicans just regurgitate everything. They all sound the same as this fine video points out. WELL DONE.

  • luvlife347 Republicans are zombies too, as this fine classic film points out .

  • before you wish for the Government to be in charge of your healthcare I sugest you visit a few VA hospitals. people wait for 2,3,4 hours for treatment or just to see a Doctor. The quality of care is not great Doctor are ok but people that work there I swear could not get a job anywhere else. They make alot of mistakes.

  • quizerry lol, before you step your foot in dog do-do & stick it in your mouth again, Single Payer Universal Heathcare is NOT what VA is! VA IS Socialized Medicine with govt doctors & govt hospitals. Single Payer is simply nationalized insurance that cuts out the middlemen insurance companies of all the schemes for profit> high premiums, copays , deductibles, out of pocket expenses , referrals, pre-conditions, etc.

    With Single Payer everyone chooses their OWN private doctors..

  • It is the first step towards it. Government run anything results in poor quality and high cost. Right now we have corporate managed Government run care that has driven up cost the past 30 years. It doesn't work. What makes you think more Government involvement will? Read the CBO oeport on this plan. Conclution is after spending upwards of 1 TRILLION DOLLARS 37million will still be w/o healthcare. Medicare waste $1 to every $3

    it spends, is that a plan worth expanding?

  • hummm, look at the dems, they just gave all that money to the auto indus. to keep them afloat, and now they have a say as to what can and cant be built and who stays and is fired. the rep never did that. if the dems get to chose on health care you can dam well kiss the quality good by. the dems want to control every aspect of your life.

  • You ever think abt becomin a prophet?

  • biomansoil Yeah who needs that pesky cheap efficient Singlepayer Universal Healthcare when we can have high monthly premiums for nothing, and more expensive out of pocket expenses when we are sick .

    I just luvs the way they do that, my insuruns cumpny really cares about me!

  • I hope they can control that part of my life called "insurance premiums."

  • I find it surprising the Republicans are trying to salvage what little is left of healthcare. It's not a bad idea to start from scratch and who know if we're lucky whatever we gain from it can be used and applied to whatever the Republicans are enforcing. I don't think the Republicans are bad people but i can't say i can agree w/ everything they do ;)

  • Obama is a coward.

  • you guys always want to think every democrat is a coward. even if he wasn't, you'd say he was. but on the other hand, you also seem really scared of him. which is he-the antichrist or a coward?

    like it takes balls to talk shit when you have the world's largest army, and a mob of secret service agents ready to take a bullet for you. anyone can talk shit with that kind of protection. but sometimes democrats don't think its smart.

    bush & cheney talked a lot of shit. it got us NOWHERE. grow up!

  • Ice Ice Baby!

  • I agree. It is the Republican Party that are the cowards. They only want to cause wars and more wars. They do not know how to actually sit down with anyone and discuss any issues. They only want things their way or WAR!!! They are really just the scared bullies of the America's playgrounds. What a sad bunch they are.

  • yea! it work real well with kim young in N Korea and Iran, now they BOTH have nukes, but thats just for peaceful means right?! wake the fuc up! the worlds not a nice butterfly place, they fucing people want to KILL u and me and our way of life they hate us. what will it take for you panseys to see the light. why dont u all move to india and sing kumbiwa!

  • biomansoil yeah, YOU and your ilk is what makes the world not a nice butterfly place. Geez, get a padded room.

  • Violence begets violence. Poor ignorant fool. All that killing and fighting solves nothing. And the World would be a better place without those of you who would use it to solve each and every issue you have.

    Jesus never resorted to violence. Are you saying that you are better than Jesus Christ? I would love you to say that to GOD's face.

    And why would I move to India, America is a melting pot. If I wanted to sing Kumbiwa, I would just hold hands with everyone here.

  • What a bunch of losers.

    Anyone who believes their bullshit should be sterilized.

  • Obama used fear to get elected with all his "this is the worst economy since the great depression" bull crap.

  • lol, so what IS the worst economy since the great depression?

  • The same old thing we keep hearing about "Oh just let everyone buy into the health care plan that government employees buy into is a bunch of crap." The reason? Because the government plan is like the plan you may have through your company that is subsidized by your employer. The problem is that the government employees are employed by us. So it is us who would be subsidizing the cost of any gov't funded plan. Costs won't go down, they'll just be moved from one group to another.

  • The difference is that doctors and insurance companies won't have the incentive to deny patients care.

  • They also won't have any incentive to provide high quality service.

  • They won't have the incentive to provide good care either.

  • they do in europe

  • Oh those crazy republicans! Can't we just exterminate them? PLEASE?!?!?!!!!

  • you'd make hitler happy with your hate speech. do you have your brown shirt pressed and ready to go?

  • This is hysterical! Funny that GOP congresspeople whining about socialized medicine, while they have one of the most complete socialized plans in the US. In the meantime, the US is something like 67th in terms of quality of health care.

    Before we reform the system, let's take the medical plan from Republican congreess members. Then we'll see how long it takes for them to "socialize" it.

  • Yeah when has Government ever done anything right, like our army, that doesn't work at all. And obviously this is a government takeover of private business, just like the post office took down UPS, and DHL, and Fed Ex. And now I am going to have to talk to bureaucrats, how awful, I mean when my dad was dying of cancer he was arguing with his HMO about whether or not it was a pre-existing condition, which delayed the treatment two weeks. But no government bureaucrats, as God intended.

  • welfare is charity, pay for your own health care. free means someone else payed for it!!!

  • onemarktwoyou, You're an idiot!!! FREE MEANS WE ALL PAY FOR IT WEEKLY OUT OF OUR PAYCHECKS!!! It's cheaper than what we've been paying for years!!! You obviously have a computer so RESEARCH IT DUMBASS!!!!!

  • you must be one of those who lives off the work of others. stop being lazy and get a job that pays your bills. or does a real job scare you? grow up and move out of your parents basement!!!

  • You just described yourself? I'm at my OWN BUSINESS WORKING RIGHT NOW I employ 1437 people who all make more money than you! You must thing a real job is minimum wage at Taco Bell!!! Or maybe you work at Walmart!!!

  • imtang-tell the truth, that many people? and you have time to be on you tube all day long. your not telling the truth. tell your mom you love her, and your going to help with the bills. since i must have hit a nerve, you do really must live in your parents basement.

  • I never sign out. And being the C.E.O. of MY company I can do what I want, when I want. Unlike your loser ass!!! BTW, my mother has standards and never plays with no-class crack whores such as yourself!

  • imtang-you can't take it. you lied and your caught! all you can do is call people names, i don't know your mother, but i have a feeling you could have been a better son. please for the love of god move out, and give her some peace. i hope you don't use that mouth like that when she is around

  • First off, I could never be a better son because I'm female and secondly, my mother is a circuit court judge who has more than likely sent your ass to jail once or twice!!! Maybe if your nice, I'll take ya for a ride on my yacht! Go to bed LOSER!!!!

  • imtang-first your full of it. second you seem to lie about everything you posted. your full of hate, and one of those people who think you can push people around and get your way. GROW UP!!!

  • I'm not the one picking fights because it's the only attention I can get THAT'S YOU! REMEMBER!!! You must be out of your meds, right?

  • imtang-you started this by name calling and not having an idea of what your talking about. then lied about who you are. on your reply if you disagreed i could respect that, but you went straight to insulting, and trying to piss me off. didn't work. but i hit a nerve, the truth hurts.

  • You're OBVIOUSLY the one who needs a job! I would offer you one if you weren't such a douche bag!!!!! Maybe you should put your pants on and go look for a job LOSER!!!!!!

  • imtang-why are you acting like you have a high paying job? you such at slams, because of the words need to use. name calling is a sign of someone who can't make a point. "hows the living in your parents basement working out? does mommy bring you breakfast in bed too?" that is better way, i didn't need to use name calling to slam you. just the truth.

  • ummm newsflash....the US healthcare system is already destroyed. Im suprised people dont notice it.

  • it cost me 560 dollars a month to get dental that's more that what i pay for rent !!!! Then I have asshole that make millions a year and have GOVERNMENT HEALTH CARE!!!!! THE whole congress has telling me is gets free government care

  • Go to your local Registry of Motor Vehicles or VA Hospital and see how the government runs something. A Bipartisan solution is necessary and simply not spend and tax.

  • I have 2 family members who work for the VA hospital, and they report that it is very efficient and well run. Yes, they have their problems (just like any other hospital), but as a whole they do a really good job.

  • REPUKES are the reason that this country is so fucked up...

  • scared old white men, your ship has sailed...

  • 300,000,000 people

    225,000 doctors

    when everyone has full access to doctors they'll take advantage of it, the very day of this reform can you imagine THREE HUNDRED MILLION people thinking "well since medical is free I think I'll go see a doctor today"?

    rofl no fucking way in hell you'll been seen for at least a couple months with 1 doctor for every 2,000 patients

    need a transplant? roflmfao its not exactly the same as waiting to be seen for a checkup, expect to wait at LEAST 6-8 years

  • You are funny dude. You miss the fact that every other country who has universal health care does fine and that America is the laughing stock of the rest of the World when it comes to healthcare.

  • That is true. The world laughs at it.

  • R.I.P.ubliCONS and funny enough, the ppl posting negative comments here almost never even got out of this country

  • Your right ! the more the Govt gets involved the more it cost and the the quality of care is a joke. Its amazing people think this is a good idea.

  • fred,

    Are you implying that the present system is a good idea? Do you suggest an alternative is NOT a good idea?

    You must have decent coverage.

    (My wife and I pay upwards of $16,000 a year on health insurance, and without it I'd already be dead.)

  • Japan are 22nd in the world, below the US/UK/Canada etc, for the number of doctors per 1000 people. And yet:

    Consultations with doctor per year per 1000 people:

    Japan is number one in the world with 14.4 (the US is second with 8.9)

  • So in a country with socialised medicine, you get to see a doctor more often than in the US. And you cant cry (as usual) that its because the US has 10 or 20 times the population because we aren't talking about Sweden or Norway here. Japan has over 120 million people.

  • hehe, republicans are not in an form of power.

    In fact they are powerless. If the dems can not get somthing through its not because of republicans but other dems.

  • This video is retarded - look up Hillary Clinton.

  • How do the Democrats respond to Republican tasteless propaganda?

    With more Tasteless propaganda.......

  • This is not tastless propaganda. Universal health care works in europe and it works in Cansda. It is proven.

    The current system in the U.S. is barbaric and it's idiots like you that cannot see it.

  • poseidon, I just posted a comment and I look forward to his respponse. he must be on the pay list of pharmaceutical industries too. it's ridiculous the amount of money they charge here in the US. The highest , the most costly in the world.Outrageous. These companies (the biggest ones) are Europeans too. But here in the US, they do whatever they want. It's just a matter of "lobbying/corrupting" teh right Senators.Majority of them, ...

  • When I found out about the American health care system when I was growing up, I was shocked!

    It's like..."You have no money so you can just die, but this rich guy with the splinter can just walk over your dead body to get it removed."

    The U.S. health system is barbaric at best.

  • understand we, tax payers, end up paying for the uninsured here when they become critic and go for emergency rooms.Doctors here are not medics. They are merchants. Did I tell you about a friend of mine having a heat stroke in Florida, staying in the hospital for 25 HOURS and getting a soaring 19.000,00 bill? To which he rightfully stated: screw you all. I'm not insured and don't have money to pay

  • That's the point. Up here the taxpayers pay for everyones health care, unless you are a tourist.

    There is nothing wrong with it.

  • In Europe even if you are a tourist and gets sick, you still get help. My brother had brain cancer and passed away 14 months ago in Ottawa. He was hospitalized for 16 months, taken to Montreal to be operated by one of the best neurosurgeons there, was constantly being pampered, lot's of TLC....All these lying pieces of crap here don't know what they are talking about! Peace out

  • Don't get me wrong, we take care of the tourists, but we bill them. Either them personally or their insurance company.

  • I paid for when I got sick in Canada. Yet they charge NORMAL fees.85 nucks for an appointment. If you compare with almost 400 they charge you here n this insane country

  • Comment removed

  • A government bureaucrat or an insurance industry bureaucrat... take your pick.

    From where I stand, the government bureaucrat looks a heck of a lot less scary. For one thing, he/she isn't looking to make a buck off my personal suffering.

  • Socialized Medicine!!! We should BE so lucky!!

  • Hopefully you will be.

  • RATIONED HEALTHCARE!!!! Good Lord! Hey, you GOP fascist douchbags: tens of millions of Americans don't even HAVE health coverage in the first place!!! You people are beneath contempt!!

  • Republicans are a TOTAL JOKE!

    Fox News, Hannity, O'Reilly, Rush, etc, etc....are making total fools of themselves! They are like whining little 4 year olds....Finger-pointing & complaining constantly......

  • "Wasting the labors"??? I think you're over-interpreting that. The insurance companies are most certainly wasting our labors. Paying a tax to the government is not wasting a labor when it would cost a lot less than an insurance premium, deductibles and co-pays. Get an education, pleeeeze!

  • If Thomas Jefferson was talking about health care, which he was NOT, then he would be an asshole.

    Keep your ancient quites out of it. Universal health care is proven and it does work.

  • Funny

  • Is it really too much to ask that the American people have the same insurance options as those they elect into office?

    If the GOP hates gov't insurance, why don't all their members get rid of their own damn gov't insurance then? Then they'd know first hand how hard it is to find a private insurer willing to take on a 70+ year old with a history of cancer like their last nominee, McCain. He couldn't even get a policy!

    Give the American people the same options as their own elected officials.

  • Look, don't start providing facts now. You know facts will make their heads explode, and out spews liberal/socialist/marxist/comm­unist/stalinist goo.

    But seriously, I expected nothing less. They are acting like the last 8 years didn't even happen. They think America is stupid.

  • Nah, we just think people who scream about communism without actually knowing what it means is. ;D

  • .... and who scream about Socialism without knowing what THAT means! Spot on!!

  • I have not had health care since... Last September. Why? Because it would cost me about $400 a month.

    That's a wash.

  • We lived the neocons horror show for at least 8yrs or more, and now they want us to believe it's the Democrats who put America in this miserable situation.

    Health care in needed for all, that's the bottom line.

  • We have universal health care in Canada and it works just fine. It's ethical and corporations do not get to exploit it.

    That's all the rerublicans want. They want people to rely on corporations for their medical needs, like they do now.

  • I love to hear things like this from Canadians and Europeans. Republicans like to say "You have to wait months for procuedures in these countries!!!!" and of course people eat it up.

  • The wait might be a bit longer, but at least the rich don't get privilage before the poor. Besides, the U.S. has more Doc's than Canada in many places.

    Everybody deserves health care.

  • Poseidon500 We are in a nightmare of the living dead in the USA. I hope you thank God every day you pledge allegiance to the Canadian flag.

  • Well, the U.S. might have all the money and a big military machine, but I sincerly believe that my nations ways are more advanced and civilized.

  • Poseidon500 Canada is absotively more advanced and civilized than America, as a matter of fact , Canada follows US Constitution more than the USA does!

  • Canada enjoys more freedom than the U.S. ever will.

  • Poseidon500 I am arguing with a yank idiot on another singlepayer vid who thinks our US Founding Fathers are on the insurance lobbyists side and against "lazy & weak" Americans who can't buy their crap .... are there less or more idiots in Canada, per ratio ?

  • There are less idiots up here. We are not educated with propaganda.

    I have yanks who argue with me saying that they one the war of 1812. LOL

  • Poseidon500 Well , I don't know who won at all, so I'm not dum enuf to say who did !

    LOL

  • The U.S. tried to invade the whole of North America and Canada beat them off, went to Washington and burned down the whitehouse. We could have pressed on, but did not want to destroy America.

    Technically it was British North America at the time, but that eventually became Canada.

  • Poseidon500 And I googled it , didn't even know that our Star Spangled Banner was written during the War of 1812!

    Wow, you mean if you conquered us back then, we would have Universal Healthcare today.... DAMN!

  • Yes you would. Also, you would have been involved in ww2 right from the start and Hitler would have been defeated much earlier.

    We did not conquer you. We fought the U.S. off and taught them a lesson. We could have destroyed the U.S.

  • Poseidon500 How ironic! Well , you wouldn't have destroyed Florida where I'm at, I know a little bit about Canadians , eh?

  • Poseidon500 I got a very important question for you and I hope you will be able to answer it fully, because we do not know how to convince the stupid people in America that #1) private medical insurance is a complete joke and for profit , NOT for patient

    #2) Single Payer is NOT socialized medicine (govt doctors )

    How did you convince the conservatives and even the ultra-conservatives in Canada that Universal Healthcare is better than anything USA has?
