No rushed vote for healthcare bill in house

why do people insist in getting the government and corporations involved with healthcare?

Everybody thinks the grass is greener in other socialized countries.

Lol makes less money BUT its still nice....lmao...
Thats like going to work and getting a pay cut BUT at least you still get a check.

If a single payer system is so terrible, why does every other First World Nation have one? Why are none of those countries contemplating switching to the US model of healthcare? Why do every single one of those countries consistently beat the US, and in many cases handily, in healthcare rankings?

Yeah, look at Norway. It's just rocky and white!

a reply to: MissCoyote

actually, I would rather take a pay cut and work for the government...but Im just saying they will not be able to make as much money bc they cannot over-charge anymore.

a reply to: veracity

With a government pension they might actually end up making more in the long run.

Im also sure they would rather see their bills get paid and also treat diseases before they get too serious as well.

less stress

Not to mention the your school loans would probably be forgiven and your malpractice insurance would at the very least be subsidized. Which in turn makes med school more appealing since you won't be drowning in debt for the first 10 years or so after you graduate. Not to mention it will open up the option of med school to a lot more people who can't afford it currently.

so many wins, no wonder they would rather move to single-payer

What I don't get is the logic. If it passes and so many people loose coverage, whether it be higher rates, loss of Medicare expansion, pre existing conditions, etc, don't they realize how demonized they ( the Republican party) will look? Crap, as an independent voter, I'll damn sure will vote Democrat next election just to try to get it repealed.

What do they care? Even if they get voted out they're set for life. Odds are Trump alone is going to cost them some seats so they might as well makes things as cushy for themselves as possible.
