A good explanation. This was passed on to my wife by her doctor.

At least it came from a disinterested third party! Or not........
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.

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.

Free enterprise has ****ed this country and tens of millions of its
workers over royally. And now you want more of the same?
