    Sledog can't die soon enough...this is painful to watch.

    Not croaking soon. But I'll skid into that last parking spot pretty beat up. Life is hard, it's harder when you're stupid. Many of you poasters obviously live very, very difficult lives!

    Sad world when the supposed tolerant ones wish death upon others. I've seen death, I've caused death. Your stupidity scares me more. Our country is in deep shit!
    Kill yourself cracker.

    What definitely doesn't work is if you have to pay full freight for individual insurance. Then it is like leasing a couple of cars a month in payments for a middle aged guy with about ordinary coverage.

    Have to agree with you. It's expensive and the price keeps going up. We have to pay for 35 million lazy ass morons that think they are owed something because they were born. As the bible says: If you don't work you don't eat! It's one hell of an incentive. But now we generations sitting on their ass collecting every form of government assistance and making more than many job pays. Some states up towards 65K a year. That's why socialism has never worked and never will.

    Why do countries with universal health care pay less per capita than the US currently does?

    you've conflated high costs of medicine with being poor.

    I don't. The Bible is about charity not about forcibly taking peoples money to redistribute to the lazy who choose not to work or to pay for someones education, medical insurance etc. If you don't pay they put you in jail. Unless you're Al Sharpton. Hard work is always stressed in the Bible and it says idle hands are the devils playground. I give to charity. It's my choice. I give the charities I choose not those chosen for me.

    Now people think a starting job should pay enough to pay for a family of 4. Our country was never designed to work that way and any viable system can not function in that fashion.

    Because they don't have as good of health care as we do and you wait extensive amounts of time for procedures. They have no where near the number of MRI machines etc. My Canadian friend paid for a recent surgery to a private practice as the wait so long. Maybe you could tell me where it says everyone is entitled to healthcare?

    The fact that the hospitals and doctors charge more for those of us with insurance is to pay for those who don't pay. Tylenol doesn't really cost $10.00 a pill but your hospital bill might say so. So see we've actually been paying for everyone covertly. They went when they really had to go. Now they'll go for the sniffles and we'll pay even more.

    The quality of healthcare in most Western European countries is every bit as good as the US (which does have good care when you can afford it).

    Not everything needed to be outlined in the bill of rights, though you could argue healthcare fits somewhere in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
    So see we've actually been paying for everyone covertly.
    Right, which makes paying premiums to insurance companies retarded. Cover everyone with taxes in lieu of insurance premiums and everyone saves money. I care less from a humanitarian point of view and more from the fact that it has been proven to save everyone money. Allow secondary coverage for those that want it, and in the meantime we can git rid of over half of the annual bankruptcies in the US.

    We can agree to disagree on most things but if you think "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" means the government pays for it you're wrong. The founders greatly feared a strong central government.

    It means your life is yours not a kings etc. Liberty is yours unless you piss it away being a criminal and you may work as you see fit to make you happy.

    No other countries don't have as good of health care or there would not be long waiting times for what are really emergency medical procedures here. Now even here a friends father recently need a serious surgery and they had to wait to get approval to see if they would pay for it due to his age. But hey there's no death panels. I just saw a count of diagnostic machines and the difference between the US and other countries is staggering.

    What do you think Jesus's position on paying taxes was?
