What? Free? Me thinks not CM, why do you suppose we have the privilege
of paying some of the highest taxes in the world? You and I and the rest
of the middle class pay the brunt of the cost.

Eventually . . .if the examples of Canada and England are to be followed. I
recall the medical community in British Columbia shutting down and heading
South for the winter whent he funds ran out. I also recall selling a lot of
supplemental, high deductible catastrophic care insurance policies to
Canadians. My largest customer base by far. Your example is truly great . .
..especially if you are more equal than other pigs. My $230 a year
supplement, for example, is military retirement insurance. The base plan
(no charge except 20 years of work) is so good it's not accepted in many
places because of the difficulty in getting paid in something reasonably
approaching a timely manner. That's why I add the supplement, DAN, and
union insurance. To the extent it does work the gov't insurance is fine . .
.. .but then I have all of you paying for it. A large economic base is
needed to support a small amount of users. Ask the taxpayers of Oregon how
well it works even when prioritized and limited.

Sorry . . . .the theory does not match the reality and the number one reason
for increase in cost of medicine is government intervention. Do you really
think we union workers are going to give up our good coverage for another
failed government program? Even the government union workers aren't that
silly.

So when you go to the check out line and are asked "Paper or Plastic?"
Answer them, "Doesn't matter I'm bi-sack-ual."

Not completely free, but an excellent example of what we should
look at when reformulating ours. Ours does have some benefits...
more hi-end research is funded and there is more disclosure of
problems to name two.

I don't spend my money on food. I spend most of my money
on women, porn, booze, and recreation. The rest of it I just waste.

And not only does everybody pay they pay out the ass
not only for medical care but for the giant and ever-
growing government bureaucracy that develops around
so-called free health care.

If you want health care then step up to the plate and
pay for it yourself. Since when is it MY job to pay
for your bad health most of which is self-inflicted
by bad habits you're too lazy or too stupid to correct.

In Horass' case, I agree. He should pay for his social diseases
himself.

Yeah that's right ... you guys are so friggin busy suing your medical
practitioners that they are forced to quadruple their normal fees just to
cover the insurance premiums. No wonder you couldn't afford national
Medicare!
