You whine that you don't want to pay for other peoples problems but you're all for liberating the people of Iraq. Fucking ass hypocrites. What you don't realize is that you pay regardless and its more than if there was a national health system. People with no health care do not get regular checkups, and when problems do develop they wait until finally they have no choice but to go to a govt subsidized hospital and the cost ends up being far higher than if they caught the problem in the beginning. Guess who pays for that? Us taxpayers. You're still paying for it but you're to damn stupid to realize it.

Even with health insurance there are still issues. Most if not all plans have a cap on what they will pay. I had a friend about ten years ago that had one of the best health plans available. He found out that he had bone cancer. He went through treatment (surgery, chemo, etc) for a couple of years, then discovered that his medical costs had exceeded the million dollar cap on his policy and so he no longer was able to get any treatment whatsoever. So for the last 6 months of his life he laid in bed suffering without any treatment until he died. So fuck all of you ignorant assholes who let the govt and insurance companies get away with this shit.
