Actually, I believe that it is only due to the fact that medicine is a for profit enterprise that most illnesses are even treatable.
If you think the government is going to be spending money on R&D you are truly delusional.Comment

This is why insurance cost should be regulated. Even if everyone had to have insurance, companies would probably have prices the same as they are making a killing out of it. In the UK they can offer you full private coverage for $60 -$100 a month and still make money.Fuck that bullshit. In the last 15 years I have been to the doctor maybe 5 or 6 times. Part of that time I was paying insurance monthly and just two months of payments cost more than my combined fucking visits. In the last 10 or 12 years I have had no insurance and 2 visits in that time. One was expensive and I payed out of my pocket over time with billing. But guess fucking what. IT WAS STILL CHEAPER THAN IF I HAD PAID MONTHLY FOR THE SAME GOD DAMN TIME PERIOD.
Insurance has always been a fucking scam. Take my car insurance. I have been driving for close to 25 years and have paid a monthly insurance so other motherfuckers can use that money for their accidents because guess fucking what? That's right! In all those years I have had one wreck. ONE! And I have forked over thousands upon thousands over all those years and if I die without another wreck or need to call on them they might as well have just come to my house, stuck a gun in my face and took the money.
BULLSHIT!!!
I admit this is a lefty view but I'm proudly centre-left (which doesn't mean communist btw, only Americans think it does - it means believing in capitalism but not allowing the old or sick to slip beneath a minimum standard of living.)
You are correct though, insurance is usually a scam. Most people would be better putting money aside each month in a savings account with a decent interest rate.Last edited by marcjacob; 08-19-2009, 01:44 AM.Free Site Express GFY Launch Offer

the fact you think just becuse you "served" in the military means you deserve free health care is amazing. You didnt get a limb blown off, you hurt yourself lifting a box LOL
just sit back and think the rest of us owe you a life of free health care becuase you didnt go to college and get a real job, its worst than welfare imho.
as i said, be glad we pay so you can sit on your ass and not have to work anymore, and we pay for your meds, and we pay for your surgery.
amazing.

This is EXACTLY what is proposed...I am a believer in free enterprise with competition being a driving force...but regulated free enterprise.
1. Insurance companies should be required to allow anyone that can pay for their policy...without preconditions...to purchase a policy.
2. Insurance companies should be required to pay for whatever medical procedures your doctor/doctors determine you may need without...preconditions.
2. States regulate what insurance companies can operate within the State. This should not be allowed. All insurance companies...domestic and non domestic...should be allowed to operate across States...in all states.
3. If one is so poor that one cannot afford to purchase ANY private insurance from any insurance company then there should be government subsidized insurance available for purchase...with one having to pay whatever percentage of their income it is determined that they can afford to pay and still meet necessary needs.
4. All people...from 18 up...should be required to purchase either private insurance or public subsidized insurance.
5. The cost of medical procedures and medicines should be regulated...in a manner that would still encourage R&D.
I think when the dust settles...which would certainly take a period of time...this would be better than having a total socializtion of health care...which I am not in favor of.
This is exactly the public option that has been proposed.3. If one is so poor that one cannot afford to purchase ANY private insurance from any insurance company then there should be government subsidized insurance available for purchase...with one having to pay whatever percentage of their income it is determined that they can afford to pay and still meet necessary needs.Comment
