  • Obama = Idiocity that is continuingly to screw us all. Any followers of this idiot should have to pay solely for everything he's spent. MOST of America hates this retard. If you still want to follow this moron, then congratulations. You are now considered a minority.

  • Hmmm...sounds like Socialism to me...Obama Inc. needs to work on memorizing it's responses to "tough" questions like this

  • @supremacistkilla These guys dont seem to be looking for the answer, takes more strength to engage the brain in listning and understanding an answer, than to engage the mouth with mindless rants, and fatious comments.

  • @toxic2k7 Yes because spending one night in the hospital, with a 10dollar drip, creaky bed and a $900 bill the next day (personal experience) is better than staying three 3 nights at a hospital, constant treatment, books and entertainment (not kidding) and getting no bill afterwards.

    Do you guys ever do your own research.

  • @jdm8794 Actually he's answer was straight forward

    - The Entity running the public option would be automonous from the government in that it will have to raise its own capital, rather than be subsidised by the government

    -- And that many countries including the Netherland, have everybody covered (Unlike the US) but still have a competitive health insurance market

    -- Third point was that, many private instituions compete well and fare better than public institutions, i.e. UPS against postoffice.

  • DONT LET THEM MAKE AMERICA INTO BRITAIN! YOU DO NOT WANT AN NHS!!

  • lol he proves his own point in a very sick and unintentional way...

  • ..that wasnt even an answer!

  • Obviously he did not intend to point out the inefficiencies of government run programs. It was a mistake on his part. I would guarantee he would like a redo on that answer. Too late though.

  • How? He killed the kid's argument with one example.
