We have the best health care in the world already here in the U.S...fact. Do some things need fixing...yup. A little competition by letting us cross state lines and "shop". But like anything else that benefits us and not the government, it gets shot down BY government. It doesn't really take a 1000 pages of legislation to fix the few things we need fixing, that's the real problem. They also lie about the numbers of who is not covered, many get health care free already, illegals as well...all free. Millions of people don't want it at all...they add those numbers in too. In many cases our doctors out there don't make as much as our people in Congress...GO FIGURE. They go into debt 150K because they want to be a docotor and some shmo in the White house makes a bogus comment about how they always just yank out a kids tonsils because it's worth more money. Wow, a slap in the face there for docs, Government needs to create a bad guy, guess it's the doctors now. I would like my doctors and surgeon to get paid a whole lot more than Congress or anyone in government myself. They are worth more, much more. Yes, we already have the best health care here, we just need to tweak it some, not let government ruin it like they did the pilot program...Medicare. Medicare is government run. You can ask my son what he thinks of government health care..LOL!!!! The military people will tell you, it's a joke, they can't even write down the appointments and get it right, let alone pay for anything much with all that regulation. There is a good example of rationing and quality right there for all to look at. Ya...let's exapnd that.
I personally don't care what other countries have until most of the news media and people all agree there is something better out there, but so far we are the very best in the world, and the people coming here from all over the world prove it, there is far too much information in the world that tells us this. Congress knows they have the best there is as well..they won't sign up for what they give some people out there, bank on it...they have the best as well, private doctors of their own choice. They won't have anything to do with what they offer their "subjects"....
That my friends...is what it's all about in a nutshell...look no farther than what they give themselves, that is all you need to really know.
If they put together a package that Congress will take, and the President and his family....then it's a good one.
That is pretty much the truth of it, if you boil it all down to simple terms and forget the complications the media and politics of it all.
