said by AricBrown :The US already has universal health care. You get hurt or sick anywhere in the country you can go to a doctor ANYWHERE. What YOU want is for the government (ie ME) to pay for your health care. That's not true and you know it.
As far as YOU paying for it . Leet me ask yo is peoel wthout health get sick and don't go to the doctor and misses work and that hurts the economy that's going to cost you a lot more. If they end up so bad the end up in the ER sure then you'll pay REAL big for their health care. $50 doctor visit or $500 ER visit you're paying for one or the other, CHOOSE. |

Oh and by the way since WE, the taxpayers do pay for the ER visit wouldn't it be cheaper just to pay for the guy to go to a regular doctor? Probably 1/10 the cost. |

1 day hospital bill $4,9xx with minor exams and a ER visit. BS. In 1994 I had a car wreck was in the hospital for a week had surgery on my leg and the entire bill was 16 grand which included the ambulance service.
Three year ago my son cuts open the bottom of his foot on some broken glass. ER visit which included stiches and return visit 2 weeks later totaled $700. Where in the fuck do you get $5000 grand for "minor" stuff? |

Uh, we do. What do you think Medicare, Medicaid and crap like SCHIP, which pays for "children" up to age 26 and in families with incomes up to $83k a year pay for? -- This isn't fair!
