"Compulsory coverage and costs" Swiss are required to purchase basic health insurance, which covers a range of treatments detailed in the Federal Act. It is therefore the same throughout the country and avoids double standards in healthcare. Insurers are required to offer this basic insurance to everyone, regardless of age or medical condition. They are not allowed to make a profit off this basic insurance, but can on supplemental plans
I always get a real kick outta those who LOVE to impose their right-wing conservative thoughts about less government in other countries ..........yet live in countries that enjoy gov programs that work .......
BUSH purposely scared the crap outta Americans to make himself look like the great protector of Americans ....... So, knowing that ....Obama naturally didn't want Americans to look at him as any less. Besides, in order for him to get anything at all outta Repub house - he probably made that as a consession
It's a true circle of endless BS - that revolves continuously
We're all disappointed with Obama to various degrees.....but he's still much better than what we could have had .....
But that said, who would or could have stepped in front of the fan that the BUSH administration set-up and done better ? Obama was handed a nearly impossible task for recovery - and an American public who wants "instant gratification"
Canadian Health Care System ?
Hmmmm...Must be very conservative woods.......
