  • Excellent, very good video...but two problems later on, one, the somewhat fuzzy font hard to read lettering, and also right before that, "save enough money to cover everyone" is not explained.

    Most people haven't heard that private insurers are far more wasteful, bureaucratic and LESS efficient than government, they don't know that Medicare's 4% or so in overhead, compares with 15% to 30% more in overhead in private health insurance, as nonpartisan CBO and GAO &other studies show. pnhp dot org

  • Obama/Palin all the way!

  • This video is BS all the way

  • Insurance companies control health care. They make all the decisions and create rules to restrict care and gain money. They put your health at a price tag and give it low value. We need to eliminate this. In single payer all government does is give access to the health care system. All decisions are given to you and your doctor and treatment is based on needs not money. WAITS CAN BE CONTROLLED by making sure all treatments and care are on needs and not wants. So NO GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER IS CORRECT

  • in the philippines, if you broke a leg.. and you have insurance.. you dont need to pay anything.. its free

  • Yes the health care system in this country has major problems that need to be fixed. But getting rid of health insurance completly and handing over to the government is like cutting off your arm because you broke your finger. We need to figure out what the problem is instead of just looking to our government to fix our problems. This is not the governments job, it is ours. Lets take some personal responsibility America, and stop looking for someone to fix everything for us.

  • its funny because britain where i live is free i brake my leg i get a major operation 12 screws and cast for a week costs me ... erm nothing... americans it costs you 500-2,000 for just one god damn screw

    at last america in a hole filled to the rim with shit haha:L

  • I once got a blood test from a doctor. The private lab sent me a bill for $250, because the insurance company didn't cover those kinds of test. WHAT! MEDICAL TESTS! The doctor suggested I get a lawyer. That's the foul face of private heatlh insurance. We need public health ASSURANCE. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

  • NICE PROPAGANDA!

    SYSTEM FAILURE IS DUE TO THE GOVERNMENT!!!

    NOT PRIVATE SYSTEMS

    HEALTH CARE IS NOT AN ETITLEMENT OR A RIGHT!!

    GET RID OF THE 16MILLION Illegal Aliens and things might turn around.

    STOP the governemnt from taking over health care, get them out of education, BANKING, Housing and FOOD Trade!

    YOU STUPID PROPAGANDA FUCKS!

  • I am all for HR 676--single-payer health care for all. But I believe that in order for HR 676 to be enacted into law there has to be an Amendment Propsal to the Constitution that would state that health care is a civil and human right to everyone within the borders of the United States.
