According to the World Health Organization, the United States spends more money per person on healthcare than any country in the world. However, countries with universal healthcare systems (including Canada, Britain, and France) have higher life expectancy and lower infant mortality rates, despite spending a smaller percentage of their income on healthcare.

if health care becomes like car insurance, I will scream

[SgtTravisBickle]

That's funny because the system works in other countries. We have enough money to start needless wars but not to take care of our citizens? Switzerland does. Germany does. Canada does. Japan does. Britain does. This is classic Fox spin-doctoring.

i agree with charles, but that also goes to obama. to make it simple, just vote for McCaine. believe me, he actually knows how to DEAL WITH HEALTH CARE. The US DOESNT need to become a SOCIALIST COUNTRY. how do u pay for health care? She sells the drugs more exspensive, and that's how shes going to pay off the health care, but she doesn't say that!

[ChiGuy1978]

Car insurance is not voluntary - it's required by the states for all drivers. That's a good thing.

Likewise, everyone gets sick and everyone pays for those who aren't covered.

Uncovered people who procrastinate on getting treatment cost more to treat and have less positive outcomes. Is it better that someone waits to check if that lump is cancer until it spreads to 3 organs and can't be eradicated?

Health care needs to be required, but people will choose from affordable private plans.

Hillary is too emotional and acts like a scolding school teacher, this is NOT who we need to run our country!!!! We need a leader and that leader is OBAMA. If she doesn't want to ruin her CLINTON legacy (for what ever it's worth) she 's needs to DROP OUT of the race. She's NOT going to win the nomination.

Hilary is simply spiteful.She should not even be voted for.
