I am..........disturbed.

Who pays for universal healthcare for 300+ million Americans? Comparing uk healthcare to the us is ridiculous. Does the uk have 30 million illegals immigrants? Does the uk have an entire class of generationally welfare addicted people? I’m not willing to take home less so do nothings can have more. first off, not saying I am for universal care......but the illegals can get care......the welfare crowd can get care...paid by those with a job and their taxes....like mine. where would the money come from?....how about we stop giving billions away to other countries.....that would fund an awful lot. its going to go universal sooner or later.....the repubs, should get out in front of this......pull their heads out of there asses...come up with a plan where the health care field is payed generously....doctors..nurses...ect ...get rid of frivolous lawsuits...etc if they could pull that off....they would be in power for quite awhile...….not saying that is the way to go ….just another angle.....bob

So... wasting 7% of the US GDP is fine, because you dont want cheap healthcare, because somebody might get more then you?
Question, how much would insurance and healthcare be, if it where a completely free system that you lot want... 3% of GDP?
2% of GDP?

" knows" that all other 1st world nation has their own "Medicare for all", and it works MUCH better then the current US system Works great if you dont die before you get worked on. Typical commie chit. dave Healthy Canadians boast of their healthcare system, right up to the point they actually NEED it. Fact. The well-to-do ones, I see them in the US when they've tired of waiting, paying out of pocket. Total knee? MRI 6mo's, see surgeon sometime, be 12mo's wait before it's over. Need chemo? Hold one while we check... keep holding please... are you still there?. Here? If it's truly important, it'll get done this week, next at the latest. Elective? 4 weeks. And this is in rural America, not even the big city. ) A year ago, a surgeon from Canada came to our area to explain in great detail why he left their allegedly GREAT healthcare system. His 35 years as chief surgeon at a major Canadian hospital was a nightmare. So he's dedicating the rest of his life educating us here in the good ole USA about the dangers of socialist medicine.
And as an aside, I have a friend in eastern Ontario who went in to have a leg pain treated. For weeks she put up with a lot of pain.. Took them wonderful Canadian docs six MONTHS to find out she had a broken leg!
Yeah, Northnuts, let's bring on that wunnerful socialist bullchit.. There are two major Heath Care facilities here in Northern MN. If ya wanna know how great the Canadian Socialized Medicine works, just take a walk/drive through the hospital parking lots. They are flooded with vehicles with Ontario Plates. Why would that be? Visiting sick US relatives? Hardly. Then on their way back to Ontario, many will stop at Sam's Club and the Liquor stores. Don't know if they pay duty on all that booze or not, but when I was in college my room mate from Ontario would have a dedicated 5 gal gas can in his vehicle. He would buy 5 gallons of Vodka in the US, pour it into his special gas can every time he went home to visit and bring back the empty can.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

2% of GDP? We don't want it, dumbass! If you do, go somewhere it already exists. What I don't want is anymore government confiscation of what I earn and redistribution to folks who don't earn anything.

How about if you can afford insurance for YOURSELF great, if you can't you don't get any. The rats need incentive to stop breeding. How everyone somehow feels this in an inalienable right is beyond me.

The ones that would re-read it don't need to and the ones that need to re-read it, won't. It doesn't need to be re-read, it needs to be reinstated.
