The American Health System is one of the worst in the world

there you go yapping about shit you have no idea about other than what you see on the tele or movies. classic republican? riiight.

i never said OUR healthcare system is healthy. as a self-employed diabetic of 25 years i have 1st hand knowledge of the issues with it.

and i have absolutely no problem with people who have experience with our healthcare system criticizing the system, even our neighbors to the north, although it's interesting that 1/2 think we go there for healthcare and the other 1/2 think they come here for healthcare.

but you're just a coward hiding behind a keyboard bitching about something you've only watched a movie about and posting about here because you still think it's cool to come here and bash america

i'd wager you are still on mommy and daddy's healthcare plan and don't even know/understand the healthcare system in your own fucking country.

again- what country are you in? i can dredge up shit about it in a few moments and start a thread bitching about how shitty your country is, that's easy.

Again, check this thread, nazi. The american health system is totally destroyed. Read what your fellow patriotic Americans are saying. Even CUBA is better than USA in terms of Health.

I have my own healthcare plan. I'm sure your mom pays you yours. Anyway, keep paying 10k per month in extra fees dude or switch over to some decent country where they don't play with your health.

Bye idiot. All said.

Viva Michael Moore!

i see reading comprehension is not your strong suit.

& obviously too much of a coward to answer re: what country you are from.

um, don't mean to burst your bubble there.. but you have the best doctors because they are paid the most.

If I moved over, I would still keep on paying my universal health insurance, just in case I would get seriously ill or something.

For 70 $ a month I get everything covered, I pay just for my dental, which is still about 10 times cheaper than in US or western EU, meds are pretty cheap too (most of the very usual meds like headache killers etc. are below $5 ), quality of service pretty good.

Yes, there are longer waiting times indeed because of lot of senile geronts in the waiting rooms who haven't got shit to do, but overally I was always pretty satisfied with the service, always bringing my laptop with me to the waiting room so I can work.

we have the best doctors because we have the best schools, and a lot of them. even if another country paid doctors more than they make here, there would still not be a mass exodus of medical school grads to that country, not enough to upset the balance anyway.

besides, doctors are the problem, the system is the problem.

We pay a lot for employee health insurance... Employees with families get the best BCBS at a cost to the company of $1300 month, single insureds are around $600/month. It's real money, folks.

That seems real high. We have a pretty good company plan at United Health Insurance. For individuals it's under $300 and families under $600 I believe. It's not their best, but the 2nd best.

Have you checked out ehealthinsurance.com? You can call them and they'll run quotes on half a dozen companies for you.
