Is Government-Mandated Universal Healthcare the Best Way to Keep the Nation Healthy?

SINGLE PAYER

Seriously, it's not a debate.

Would you rather save almost 50% of the national health expenditure, or hope that greed doesn't get us into this problem again?

A single-payer system will work, I've run the numbers myself. I only used stats from the CMS website, a Harvard Study, and various other reports published through credible organizations. But if you're not into those things called "facts" then might I recommend reading the following quote "When there is an income tax, the just man will pay more and the unjust less on the same amount of income." So label yourself as unjust if you will, and perpetuate your psychotic idea of health as an industry that should be for profit. Just think about how you would feel if faced with back end of medical costs and your choices are debt or die.

Healthcare Reform

I hope these people that don’t want to change our current system of healthcare end up like me with cancer and get fired for getting sick and have their insurance cancelled by the company and told that they can get “COBRA” for double their previous entire salary if they want to continue getting care and end up loosing Everything they worked all their life for and they loose ALL their healthcare because they can no longer afford treatment and even IF they survive they can no longer get Any insurance at Any price because of the pre-existing condition, the way that I did! Actually I hope they don’t get Lucky enough like me to have a Wonderful doctor and staff that gives them the remaining chemo they needed out of their own pocket because they care (by the way, he lost his private practice recently because he went broke helping people like me and is now in with a group of doctors that have a ‘Board’ that approves requests that recently ‘Denied’ his request to see me and test me for free). The insurance companies and the congressmen fighting against reform for them surely don’t care!

Healthcare For ALL:

Healthcare for ALL American citizens is desperately needed and deserved! There are good and bad points of government healthcare in other countries but mostly good. Let’s use the good points and fix the bad so that we can have the best system in the world. If we do this right we will be the envy of the world.

Government Waist and Corruption:

Objection: Government agencies are wasteful and corrupt.

Truth: Of coarse they are, but people are continually fighting hard to eliminate the waste and abuses whenever they are found. Truth is that it is hard to fight against big money interests, but the fight does go on. No system is 'perfect' but government healthcare should be a Non-Profit public service system and the insurance company "Profits" is what make our current system so corrupt and expensive. As long as profits are the most important part of a system there will always be people that are denied the care they need because it is not "profitable", The only way to take the huge, unnecessary profits out of the healthcare system is through government healthcare policies.

That does not mean that there will not be abuses and waist, (All government agencies have abuses and waist, just like All companies have abuses and undue profits to top executives), but at least everyone will be able to get the healthcare that ALL Americans deserve, especially people that currently can't get any healthcare at any price due to pre-existing and on-going health issues. The waist and abuses must be addressed whenever and wherever they are found!
