Not me. I say that once health reform care passes, we forbid everyone who opposed it from having insurance at all. I'm quite confident that the various charity organizations/free clinics around the nation will take good care of them. ;)
the fact of the matter is that the current system is broken, and i dont think its becous of regultion. the people in charge make obsean profits whilst people die. not only people without covrage, but people with covrage. bonuses have been awarded for denying coverage and people polcys are only checked when thay get ill (and are then denyed for achne). the systems broken, and i dont think helth care componeys have your best intrestes in mind.
What does? I'm sure tort reform's part of it, but not the whole. You Megan McArdle article was good reading, but it occurred to me by the end of it that she had still completely failed to offer a solution that adapted to the conditions she laid out.
countrys with singal payer seem to do well, i love the NHS witch has served me in good times and bad well, and other countrys with highly regulated insrunces systems seem to do quite well. would you prefer strong regultion?
'Cuz it works so massively suckily for all the other countries that have single-payer, that they all voted it out and are now all paying ultrarich megacorporations for their healthcare instead, and getting denied care and coverage for ridiculous pre-existing conditions that aren't conditions at all.
Oh wait, no they're not, because they're not morons.
Hmm, let me think. The unwashed masses of the United States, heavily brainwashed by our capitalist-marketing-driven media, vs. all the people of all the other industrialized nations on Earth. Let me think:
Wal-Mart McDonald's Subway sandwiches actually being thought of as "food" American beer American pop "music" The state of the print media The state of televised media The comments sections on YouTube
Yeah, um, yes. I'm sure they're not all morons compared to us.
