Why would anyone be AGAINST national healthcare???

Especially in the US, we have some of the smartest doctors in the WORLD. They are sooo expensive though. No way could we afford to give everyone free healthcare. Look at Canada's taxes...they are ridiculous. I'd much rather just pay for my own high quality healthcare than be taxed out the ass for shitty healthcare.

If it weren't for me having health insurance when I was younger (Thank you to my Father's job), I would either be dead right now or in so much debt that I'd be paying it off for my lifetime. I remember we would receive billing statements from the hospital for totals greater than $100,000 and we would just send them off to the insurance company and voila...they are gone. I'm sure the insurance company HATES me...but I love them.
 
No one on here has attacked Obama more than I. My reason was for the exact reason you pointed out. My mind was changed when I started watching the debates and noticed that it wasnt Obama or Biden spouting the slogans anymore, he was actually talking about what was fucked up in amazing detail and how he planned on making an attempt at fixing it. Now its McCain/Palin who are full of slogans. Maverick! War Hero! Drill Baby Drill! Joe Six Pack, Hockey Mom! Its painfully obvious in these debates whos out of touch and whos not.
 
But what the article in your quote doesnt tell you is that places like the UK that get better HC for lower than what we pay now is because their property, disposal, income, and sales taxes are through the roof.
 
I stopped reading right there b/c you are a dumbass. You need to research or work in healthcare before you make statements like that.

I equate you to the black people that are voting for obama simply b/c hes black. you're pointless
 
Waited for 5 days? Sounds more like propoganda to me than anything else, its not a perfect system, but it works a hell of a lot better than that article would indicate.

France has socialized medice and is one of the top rated medical systems in the world, I think in 2000 it was rated the best on by the WHO, and I believe also Sweden has a very effective socialized medical system.
 
Why do you think it would be different?

US Government pays VA doctors like crap, but if they had to pay for EVERYONE'S doctor they'd all of a sudden pay them well?
 
Doesn't change the fact that there should NOT be universal healthcare...
I am under Tricare due to my job, which is to say the least, not that great.

You do not want the rest of the country on a Tricare like system.
 
ok seriously, thats just grabbing at straws. that is the worst argument i've ever heard. by that logic we cannot eat anything that we do not grow in our own backyard so we can make sure nothing gets added. Oh wait!! Its in the soil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111one

just die already, or move to Cuba
 
Jesus fucking Christ I have no idea what your trying to sputter along with but I think your saying that any company that isn't government controlled and has to compete with the market for like minded services is going to rape you. I just have to ask if we took profit out of the picture and gave it all in taxes to national healthcare where is the incentive for quality doctors? Where is drive to best other companies and provide a quality product? It may not be perfect now I will agree on that, but having the DMV take over is not the answer.
 
Wow I was going to respond to this but nevermind. If you want to turn control over to ONE corporation that will be a government money pit for taxes i'm glad your in Canada.
 
Who said anyone is dying? if you are sick you go to the hospital your not denied service guy. If you would stop jumping to the false extremes as points your arguments might hold some weight.
