The insurance companies HAVE to be broken up. It's too much power.
Oh they will be broken up alright. They will be totally destoryed in favor of a Single Payer system, as that is what the Liberals are really shooting for.
do you put more trust in a corporate health insurance company that has the bottom line of making a profit than an entity that is non profit...with lives of human beings at stake?
Yes, it is getting scary for the simple fact that some of these people are going just a bit overboard and I think it's going to get worse.
And David, that sure is a precious little one you have there!
I believe that a for profit company will do more to control its costs since it gets the reward of increased profit. So for profit companies create better competition.
In all the bashing of the protestors at town hall meetings and all the race cards being played I think people are losing sight that these corporations/lobbyists are backing both sides of the issues. The only winner in all this will ultimately be them. The gov't and these corporations care about one thing and one thing only, protecting their bottom line.
Main st is basically warring with itself at the behest of the powers that be.
Routine visits and ER visits covered by some sort of public heatlhcare system.
Well I would gladly spend 1.3 million per day to protect my company from being disolved by a Socialist government. Wouldnt you?
What anti-trust laws? The ones which are routinely ignored by a multitude of large industries? Or the anti-trust laws which are routinely not enforced by the Government?
No one seems to answer these questions..instead everyone just rails against the opposite of what they want....
Both alternatives are completely unacceptable.
Not to mention...another huge problem with universal health care....it could possibly pay for abortions...which to many people would be COMPLETELY unacceptable.
Anyway, politicians have been trying to get government run health care for 70 years now. No one had succeeded, because no one has come up with a REAL alternative.
