The problem is that if we go to national health care then every year the hospitals and doctors will have to apply to the government for funding of new equipment, new facilities, repairs to facilities... staffins...supplies... etc... And congress is going to sit around and dole out the money as they see fit.... probably often where the best votes are.
Do you want you hospitals to be at the whim of Congress?

Ag had better live in a state that votes for Obummer, or he's screwed.
agman: There is no reason why healthcare should be a business to make a profit. Some patients require extensive care and others much less. So do we scrap patients with extensive care because it cut into the bottom line. Really folks, making business out of healthcare is a bad prescription.
Yeah well that way...the herd gets thinned out and only the rich can survive so ya see...there is a method to their madness....genetic perfection!!!!!!!!!

we'll all be screwed...
The other problem is that there is absolutely no evidence that anyone has actually worked the numbers in terms of what it would actually cost to provide health care for everyone. Once people THINK its "free" they will start turning up in emergency rooms for every little thing and the system will be completely overloaded.
It's frighteningly irresponsible to embark on this plan without TONS of research.
Ever think about what is going to happen if they dismantle the existing system... convert to the government plan... and then find it doesn't work????
Then nobody will have any health care insurance and might be "cash only" for a few years...

Apparently not...Canadians get their healthcare down here.

That exactly what would happen when the government plan starts failing... Only those who can afford to pay in cash will get the good services and medicines as everything will be in short supply

Hell, we may have cubans rowing over to get free healthcare, come to think of it.

Between now and January you will see a huge outflux of money to other countries where it's safe from taxes. I tend to think that's some of the reason for the stockmarket's drop. The market is always looking ahead, not behind.
Indyfella: What happened to our favorite dude?Hopefully not in jail for hate speech (that would be toooooooooo funny)
Homeland Security got him for posting BS lies the "Saviour" was promising.. I think they put him in a rubber room, surely anyone believing that crap needs a rubber room..
Hugz_n_Kissez: He went to help out for the election and he's gonna ride in the limo with Obama after he wins...grattitude for being his biggest foreign supporter....
Naaaaaaaa.......I could see Obama throwing him under the bus like the Reverend. I'll stop there.
