Health Care and Rational Debate?

I keep seeing libs talk about how unwilling Republicans are to have a rational debate so my challenge is to them. All I've seen is verbal attacks against the opposition and ZERO reasons why we should adopt a Government Health Insurance plan.

If we are to have a rational debate, please cite WHY you support Obama's vision of Health Care -- and don't cite "reform" -- everyone wants "reform":
1. How has private insurance failed?
2. Are you insured? Have you ever been denied treatment?
3. Is Government really going to bring cost down when they're a primary component in the high costs of health care?
4. Is Medicare a beacon of "hope" or just another failed Government insurance program?
5. What specifics in the bill do you like?
6. Are there any parts of the bill you'd change?
7. Do you think it's a short-term solution or long-term solution?
8. Do you see it leading to single-payer?
9. Does rationing affect your decision? Medicare DOES ration...all insurance policies do...the question is, do you want Government in charge of those decisions?
10. Do you think business owners will drop their employees from the employer sponsored plan and opt for the Government plan? If so, how does that affect cost to the rest of us?
11. Does it worry you that Geithner and Obama have been avoiding the Middle Class Tax Increase question -- saying "all options need to be left on the table?"
12. Is it the Government's job to teach you how to raise your children?
13. Is the Federal Government taking on too big of role in our lives? Do you see that expansion impeding on State rights?
14. Mass., Oregon, Hawaii and California's attempts at Government health care have all failed -- do we keep chipping away "hoping" we'll get lucky?
15. Do you understand how insurance works?
16. Do you feel responsible (as an individual) to mitigate your own financial risk?
17. Do you know what the UNFUNDED liabilities are for the program? Is it safe to base a long term decision upon short term estimates (10 years)?
18. Is emotional rationale a big part your decision?
19. Is health care a fundamental right?
20 . Do we cripple the poor by "giving them a fish" rather than "teaching them how to fish"?

Let the rational dialogue begin.
 
Rational dialogue rests on the premise of the discussion. There is no HEALTH CARE bill. There is a HEALTH INSURANCE bill. Who is against a 'public option' HEALTH INSURANCE venue? Answer: The HEALTH INSURANCE industry. Follow the money and the answer is clear who's against a public option and no amount of propaganda to the contrary can change that fact. How do we know? The HEALTH INSURANCE industry spends MILLIONS of dollars on lobbying firms and even more millions in direct 'contributions' to congress members to insure that NO REFORM of the HEALTH INSURANCE industry EVER becomes law. ALL of the above 'questions' are red herring arguments as NOBODY has EVER suggested changing the HEALTH CARE industry. The government isn't going to own the hospitals or put doctors on the public payroll....the reactionaries know this, but they want you to believe otherwise. How sick is that?

Health care actually is a right....that's why there's a federal law that insists that ERs treat all comers insured or not. Does the guy that asked this 'question' think that law should be repealed? I'll bet he does.....how sick is that?
 
Well said , but way too rational for the blind and deaf Democrats who look only to the new Potentate to think for them . They have an unused portion of their head that is now filled with ideas that were used back in the early 1940'a by a man wanting to be in charge of the world and who was very charamatic.
 
Libs and Chicago messiah does not want debate--they want you to sit down, shut up and send him all your money--Period--
They know they cannot win this if the true fact come out (CBO has volumes on the disaster this is)--This is Chicago Style Politics--Mobster tactics is all Barry O knows--the Liar he is and always has been.
 
Libs haven't read the House version of the bill, obviously.

Now, why is it that I can read the 10th Amendment but our Fearless Leaders only see a blank spot in the Constitution where it used to be?
