I still wonder who is going to pay for it? Adding entitlements costs money. One can't deny that when the government replaces private enterprise the service erodes. Simple logic... bureaucrats aren't pushed to improve and maintain excellence? Competition breeds improvement.
I've pointed up the waiting time and rush to go to the doctor with minor ailments is increased in England and Canada.under a socialized system?.
Whats this utter crap about our system forcing poor people to be unhealthy? Nonsense! Give me some general examples of people being turned away from emergency care? Have you forgotten Medicaid?

grandpa I don't know how corporate facism relates to Healthcare? I think most of the larger corps and a good percent of the smaller ones in the USA pay for their employees basic heaslthcare? Doesn't Medicaid pay for that of the poorer populations? Are we saying that non of us should pay for our Healthcare or suscribe to a insurance company ? Let the government do it?

winterwind..I suggest you come down off the Peak and breath more dense air..Ride the ferry over to Kowloon..

Again in the words of Deng Xiaoping "It doesn't matter if the cat is black or white, only that it catches mice". I honestly couldn't care less if it were democratic, socialist, or Wookie, as long as it works, I don't care.
I do care! I'm proud of our system! Lets compare it to the shabby healthcare in China?
If you are an American citizen you would be concerned at any changes to the basic tenents of this country. Free enterprise and a relatively unfettered syatem which adheres to the IX and X Amendments. I cant find anything in the US Constitution that mandates Federalizing Health care? Augmenting it, maybe?


Thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.
