Thank you. I just wish I had the talent to express the thoughts in fewer words. Anybody viewing this video has to be looking for answers rather than looking for a fight. If someone more articulate than myself wants to take this idea and run with it, I welcome them to do so.
You did not pay attention to the video. There would be a public health insurance option in the VHA for uninsured individuals. I concur that the VHA is like socialized medicine. How do you figure that turning the private health care sector into a system like England or Canada is any better? People would still have the option of belonging to either system this way. Otherwise there will just be two socialized systems. I do not believe that you understand the problem.
I don't believe we should turn the private health care sector into a system of socialized medicine like England. I think we should keep the health care system private, and make the insurance system public like in Canada. England and Canada have two different systems. England is socialized where the government runs the all the hospitals and clinics and employees the doctors and nurses (like the VA). Canada has private hospitals and doctors, but the insurance is public (like medicare).
So basically you feel there should be a public health option in the private sector that would become like medicare, and at that point you would be happy that our health care system would become just like Canada's health care system. Is that right? Iy you don't mind, I would like to ask you a question. Are you presently insured?
We need public health insurance option. The VHA is not health insurance, it is socialized medicine like they have in England. Medicare is a single payer public health insurance system like they have in Canada. Our country would be best served by a single payer insurance system like medicare.
Great video! These are great ideas!

Thank you. If we all work together as Americans, we can come up with the best idea for ALL Americans. This should be about health care, not politics.
