I know it's a waste of time to talk to you, because you're irrational and you don't care about truth (or you wouldn't have made it to this age still adhering to your wrong philosophies). But for the benefit of others reading: When one "company" [the govt] has a monopoly on the use of force and can control all the other companies, it isn't a free market or competition. The govt is not allowed to compete with the private sector. Forcing some people to pay for others is SOCIALISM.

(1) LIMITATION ON NEW ENROLLMENT- (A) IN GENERAL- Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day of Y1.
Real good option there. you can't get new insurance after the program starts.

Reps and corp jerks: The Obama plan hopes to offer a public option, it's called competition, the thing Republicans claim to support. It's what you have in a truly free market, you have choices, and if the people choose the public option the private Insurance companies will have to lower their prices to compete, or they go out of business. That's called a free market: what part of that do you not understand?

An interesting take.

I'm lucky to have health care but whenever I have a question that doesn't involve a doc, I've been checking out this great health care 2.0 community called Healia, where there are health pros reading and answering questions.

I'm sorry you are on the wrong end of a defective system. But if you think your father would have gotten the quality of care from a socialized system your sorely mistaken. He would have been placed on a list in order of how bad his condition was and would only have gotten treated if it worsened drastically for many that decision comes to late. You may have big bills but at least he's still alive.

Now you're claiming nurses can't do stitches in a socialized system?
Sigh, you clearly don't get it, and you probably never will, so this conversation is done. I've taken up way too much space with my comments already. And I hope for your sake you never end up in a situation where you need medical help but can't afford it.

Competition is what made America successful? Really? Gee, here I thought it was things like liberty, justice, and equality.
I suppose I could tell you about how my parents almost lost their house (they still might) because my step-dad got laid off and lost his insurance when the company he worked for shut down, and later he had to get quintuple bypass surgery and there were complications, and the bills totaled over $100,000. But I'm sure you're fine with that, you know, free-market and all.

It takes a rocket scientist to do stitches? I think not a nurse is well capable. I don't know why you envy Socialized health car as I've said before I've had it and its crap.

thats quite a rant very little of which is making any sense. I'm sorry you think the government should over see health care considering the mess they've made of most everything else. I'm sorry you don't like competition thats whats driven America successful and is slowly being destroyed piece by piece. I don't even know where the cheapest doctor comment could come from but the fact that you think the world will end if we don't socialize medicine shows the state of mind you've been put in.
I like the message, I like the bill. I like one less thing that makes people wage slaves. I like being able to say "fuck you" to an awful boss without worrying about my health insurance.
