If government control of health services is good for society then government control of all services is good for society. Hey, what ever happened to choice? For those that feel the need for government to manage their lives, say at 18 or 21 make an election. Herd animal or independent human being? In the absence of a national health plan in this country that covers everyone, health insurance should be mandatory. How that health insurance is provided is another question. Unfortunately, we have a private insurance system whose goal is not to provide good coverage at good rates, but to maximize profits, and, as necessary, the patient be damned. Perhaps, someday, we shall outgrow that sort of nonsense. The citizens of most modern countries don't face bankruptcy when a medical crisis arises. Too many Americans do. Since World War II, we've wasted trillions of dollars on maintenance and expansion of our military. If we had saved half that amount and spent it on infrastructure, on investments in our futures, on health care for all our people, we'd be a far stronger country than we are now. You are such a dumb ****... "Infrastructure, investment in our future"? Sure, we have heard all that before, no solutions, just talking points... dumb ****... More investments in infrastructure, on investments in our future (you know, science, technology, factories that produce goods people need, health care), et cetera, leads to a better country for all with more opportunities. I'm not surprised you don't understand that. Free enterprise will supply you with what you need. And if you don't want what they offer, then you don't have to pay for it. But with government, you become a slave because whether you want it or not you will pay for it. Never let anyone or any organization get any more control over you than need be. That includes governments, as governments start wars, tax grab from you for the lazy and the corrupt. In reality, big government is big slavery. After K12, basics roads, sewer and common law, the rest is pure waste and corruption. Pork for the rich and corrupt. With infrastructure, very little of todays taxes goes there. Very very little. Got money for war, got money to meddle in every countries business in the world, got money for corruption and corporate bailouts -- but no money for medicare.... I rest my case. Because government is already out of control and the very thing you worship is the very thing that keeps you down. -- I can assure you that the road to prosperity is not paved with fleabagger debt. |
