if our healthcare system is so flawed then why are other countries flocking to use ours which is the best in the world. no where in the constitution does it say the government needs to provide healthcare.
umm we're the only industrialized nation that allows thousands of its citizens to die because they don't have adequate health insurance.
and no where in the constitution did it say that slavery was wrong, or anything about public education. and yet one of those became an amendment and the other one promotes 'the general good'
Well, take into concideration that the United States has paid for most of these countries security for the past 60 years and that is why they have had extra money for health insurance.
Keep in mind, all of this free stuff the you all want go give away is not free. I hope you all like living a lower standard of living than you parents did.
Preach on brother! Our system is sooo broken its pathetic! We are letting our americans die and that is wrong.. that pre condition shit needs to be illegal.
Ain't nobody coming here... shit, if that was true why did ontario come down hard on americans trying to get covered in "Canada" dude you need to wake up! These college kids know our ruined system.. I'm going to call and say "public option"
Doing nothing is not an option. But forcing all Americans to buy healthcare, thereby transferring wealth from all Americans to the healthcare industry you proclaim to hate is even worse.
You do not have to settle. We should have universal healthcare in this country. The House bill doesn't even come close to fixing our health system. It leaves millions uninsured. You need to pay more attention to what you are supporting.
Believe me, moocowsforever, that we have payed attention. We understand that this is less than ideal, but we also know that something, anything, needs to be done. an individual mandate, if paired with a public option, would hopefully not send millions of new customers to private insurers.
H.R. 3962 & "DOC FIX" Legislation CBO.. NET INCREASE in FED DEFICITS.. $425 BILLION in Medicaid & CHIP $605 BILLION in FED Subsidies SUB TOTAL.. $1,055 billion in subsidies by exchanges & related spending! + $245 BILLION "DOC FIX" = $1.3 TRILLION TOTAL! Offsets - $167 billion in penalties paid by individuals & employers 10 years. NET reduction in fed budget deficits of $104 billion over 2010-2019 period With "DOC FIX" GRAND TOTAL of Health Care Proposal? $ 1,196,000,000,000.00!
"Dem leaders hoped to PASS THE PROPOSAL QUICKLY, so as to DISASSOCIATE it from the larger health reform proposal."
"Were doing the doc fix (formula to pay doctors treating Medicare patients) first so as not to get it confused with health care reform," Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) said.
"Were going to try to pass it as an emergency-type of spending so that it DOESNT CONNECT to the health care reform bill & FIGURE IN AS A COST OF IT."
yeah who is going to pay for this? They are spreading the wealth around.
