| Who is paying for healthcare now? Taxpayers (out of their pockets directly into large corporations hands). The only difference using a universal health care system would be a collective purse that lowers each individuals cost. Instead of paying say $200 a month for health care out of your own pocket you might pay say $50 tax into a collective. The beauty of everyone being covered in your society is security and stability. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence. | |||||||||||||||||||||

| If I saw you lying on the side of the road I'd run you over and then back up and do it again and then laugh all down the road. That's all you are. Roadkill. | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Although I don't agree with hevusa's ludicrous point of view, I don't think you should be saying stuff like that (alias). Everything's better in France. Except the government. Still, vive la France ! | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Thanks. I think it makes a helluva lot more sense then 30-40 million Americans not having any coverage at all. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond.

Approximately 46 million Americans, or 15.7 percent of the population, were without health insurance in 2004 (the latest government data available).

Of course not! That's a number they conveniently omit - because they have an agenda. Never mind though... You don't want to see that. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

I doubt you could provide that information or that it is a significant chunk of the above mentioned. This is a HUGE problem that affects the health of our citizens and stability of our society. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond.
