@dignerds Because there is too much influence from corportate interest. Politicans collect on political campaign funds from corporate interest, and unfortunetly, this will not change.

@macdogq i dont know why conservatives dont consider the isreali model,where the free market and government programs reinforce each other,and contains fundamental roots in charity and personal responsiblity that advocates preventive care.we trust them enough regarding terrorism advise.there's no harm in looking in to some of thier solutions and see what could be worked with.

V.A. Hospital benefits are great!! I was young, dumb and so entered the military when I was 20. Just because I did that, I received LIFETIME SINGLE PAYER healthcare (and dental) for 4 years of being taken care of by the Army and trained on heavy equipment ops! So tell me again how single payer is bad??? I have perfect health and teeth because of it and oh yeah, when I am old, I can live in a VA nursing home plus be buried for FREE in a National Cemetery of my choosing with a 21 gun salute!!

If you want to take "Profit and Greed" out of the american Health Care system. Then lets move to a system like France or Japan. Where they have a combo of Private and Public Health Insurance and Health Care. Let the people decide.

Bottom line folks, if you are willing to fork out some of your earnings to Health Insuranc e companies, they at least should give us value for money.
It seems to me the money spent on them gets lost.
If you to WAlmart and buy a Lamp, you are keeping them in business.
Whatever happened to the Customer is always right?
Any answers?

Insuranc e Comoanies don't trust doctors anymore, and doctors should be the ones making the decisions. My Shrink said I needed at least 4 years of treatment, but the Insurance companies disagreed.
Like since when where Insuranc e companies experts in Psychology or medicine?
They never went to med school, don't doctors count anymore?

Now I am the Health Insurance comopanies arch enemy.
They rip people off. I say if you pay into it, you deserve treatment.
So now I use a Health Savings Account.
Health Insurance companies try not to cooperate with most HSA's because it takes the profit and decisions out of their hands.
If I could count all the heated arguments I had over the phone, I'd be a millionhairre by now.
They treatened to hang up on me, and I said, "No Bitch, you called me."

Well I know about Health Insurance Companies. I was treated for bipolar disorder, and for awhile my Insurance paid for it.
My psychologist knew what was best for me, butn the Insurance company said mental ill health is not a real illness and dropped me.
I paid thousands into the system, and they drop me.
Its like going to McDonalds for a cheesburger as a paying customer, and they turn around saying I'm no longer welcome as a customer.
I paid for the burger give it
I understand. But most of population would rather have free market system. But politicans both right, and left have corporate lobbyist backing them up. If people can vote in a leader that will ban all corporate lobbyist, Wahington can actually have a free market reform expanding more competition creating more jobs, and lowering cost of health insurance. Government only inforce control, by imposing more laws, and taxes creating job loss, and there for lack of tax revenue to cover uninsured.

Universal treatment access is a basic human right. Our system is not just broken, it is rotten to the core. Individual legislators need to account for every dime they have received from the "health insurance" industry. They have sold their votes to them. They are not representing us, anymore, they are functioning as insurance industry operatives.
