I think Canada has the right idea where health care is concerned. Free for all citizens.
Unless you happen to work for an employer that provides health insurance, or you are one of the very few who can afford insurance out of pocket, you're screwed.
Single women with children can apply for Medicaid. But what if you are a single woman, without children and between jobs? Then, my friends, you are royally fucked.
If one of the candidates offered a universal health care plan that I knew would make it past Congress, they'd get my vote in a New York minute.

I know this is going to burn like your weiner after sex with your dog but how about the crazy idea of taking some personal responsibility? You know, get an education, get a job and pay for healthcare yourself! Wild idea I know but how about not picking my pocket and stand on your own two feet? :shock:
You knowingly and willingly live in Canada and you think I'm retarded? Meet a mirror Corky.
I didn't say that the state paying for your healthcare expenses is "good". Now pay attention, I said that it's ridiculous to say that someone was poo-pooed and "sent home to die" because they did not have an HMO or PPO, etc. As I stated, I was in between healthcare providers (uninsured) and was treated as well or better than every other patient in that private hospital. There are programs for the uninsured with serious illnesses, I'm not saying a doctor is going to come to your house or you'll be living in the finest rest home but they cover your care and treatment. Believe me when I tell you, blood sucking HMOs are more likely to laugh evily and watch you suffer and die than a state or county run hospital.
All of that aside, seriously, if you incur $10,000,000.00 in medical debt declare bankruptcy, not a big deal, believe me. The medical establishment will get a big fat write off and you'll make it out alive.
Use your brain.
Jesus hates you, by the way.
You're both on crack.
If I've said it once I've said it a hundred times, competition breeds excellence.

They why does almost every major industry in the US like the airlines, telecommunications, power and health care industries all suck ass? BTW, all 4 were part of the major deregulation by Ronny, and all have experienced catastrophic financial downfalls which resulted in bankruptcy, and or bailouts by the taxpayers.
I've always heard that people who live in countries with universal health care have to wait a really long time to see a Dr for non-life threatening illnesses. Is that true? I know that if I get an earache or toothache I can get into a Dr's office in a day or two and sometimes the same day here.
No shit. The government already spends too much of my money. They need to find ways to reduce that, not increase it. They have already fucked up public education, mass transit, and social security. No need to add another on the list.
I didnt?
*ROTFLMAO @ the Admins having deleted my posts PWNing the US healthcare system*
Admin abuse? OWNED! Bwaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa! And not a single TOS broken.
Let me get this straight, the industries mentioned were deregulated by Ronald Reagan, yet only NOW do they fail, and yet they were not responsible for their own demise? Fuck, but you are a moron.
Canada has heavy regulation of our airways, yet STILL Air Canada, and other airlines have suffered. Stupid fuck.
I absolutely believe in regulation, HEAVY regulation, but do NOT for a moment blame deregulation soley for the demise of the above industries. Blame American stupidity.
