We need to get Obama and his cronies out of the government.

Fox news is not give impartial news. The US people must be completely ignorant if they believe this Republican funded news network & think it is impartial. Especially when they put a loaded poll on the internet. Australia has a successful Government health system which people still can chose private if they want for extras. US health care system is ranked as one of the lowest in developed countries. Health care is a nations investment in its people not a cost burden.

But it's still unconstitutional, let the market decide.

REGULATE HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES. VERY SIMPLE.

CREATE COMPETITION BY REGULATING THE INSURANCE COMPANIES TO PRODUCE POLICIES THAT ARE MORE AFFORDABLE. THIS IS SIMPLE BUSINESS 101 NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. WHY IS NEITHER PARTY OFFERING THIS GOOD BUSINESS SOLUTION, WHY? PERHAPS BOTH PARTIES ARE IN THE POCKETS OF THE GIANT HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANIES. LETS USE OUR VOTE AND MAKE THIS GREAT NATION, ONCE AGAIN GREAT, BY CREATING OUR OWN SOLUTIONS AND NOT FOLLOW THE FAILURE OF EUROPEAN HEALTH CARE.

As a health care provider I can tell you a lot of Canadians come to the US for major surgery--CABG, Neurosurgery to name a few---often in this case because Canada doesn't have the surgeons skilled enough to perform a lot of difficult brain surgeries. Most recently a leader of one of the Provence's chose to fly to the US for his heart surgery.

could you support your claim of "we have canadians coming into the u.s. just to see doctors" and "because they would have to have been on a waiting list in canada" I Lived in Canada for a good portion of my life and when i went to the doctor i never was placed on a waiting list of any sort. I was even hospitalized for a short period, and again no waiting list. please show me the statistics of Canadians seeking health care in America.

@philateliceun uhm no it wont work here..since u dont live here u dont know that becuz of the way the plan is set up, which is just the like the healthcare canada has,we have canadians coming into the u.s. just to see doctors..why? becuz with the government controlling the healthcare they are not worried about you, or what ur problem is. Canadians come here and say they need surgery now, because they would have to have been on a waiting list in canada

I am confused. In Europe it works, I see that from my ow experience and from the data. Now, maybe it works different for your country but why should our policy not work in your country? And don't give me crap that it doesn't work here because it does. Look up the data for yourself.

Your right. The GOP's relentless attack rhetoric will ultimately blow up in their faces again. We've already seen the horrible mess they've made of this country, socially, militarily, foreign policy-wise, and economicly. So it is no surprise they are now trying to tear down someone else's efforts to rebuild this nation.
