So, you're talking about expanding a gov't program to include all. I'm for it. "Expand Medicare" Besides, those who do have coverage are at risk of losing it should they lose their job, and they're at risk when insurance companies refuse to pay. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

Cobra is great, but some employers don't offer insurance, so no Cobra. and they're at risk when insurance companies refuse to pay. Refuses to pay for waht? Platic surgery? Breat enhancements? Viagra?

Or get a compensation package that allows them to purchase their own insurance? and they're at risk when insurance companies refuse to pay. Refuses to pay for waht? Platic surgery? Breat enhancements? Viagra? Quadruple by=pass on a 96 year old? There are many instances of insurance companies refusing to pay or burying people in red tape. I'm sure you can find plenty of examples! And is nationalized / socialized insurance is any better? Bureaucrats are bureaucrats regardless of whether they are with private insurers or work for a govt. Canada is a great example of how nationalized insurance fails. They offer all the problems of private insurance amplified by a non-responsive govt bureaucracy. Keep in perspective that Michael Moore is in business to promote his film. |
