you may be spot on, and im not afraid to admit being wrong about health care or not totally accurate, i just want the truth. but the fact remains this health care bill is in the TRILLIONS not billions but TRILLIONS i agree everyone should have health care but there is alot of bullshit going on too for it to be that high amount of money needed for a change to only help a small percentage of the population
and the truth remains obama=image politics and just wants to jack up taxes and not looking to create more jobs, unemployment is up
obama still giving no incentive for kids to learn anything in schools, we need to give young children manufacturing jobs as school learning curriculum ( not stupid ass english, spanish and math classes need to know basic math of course) and other types of jobs at a young age and these kids should get paid for it , this will give young kids incentive to learn TRADES
Any improvement to our Healthcare system will be an improvement in savings. We already are paying more per capita and the number one cause of bankruptcy in the United States is due to medical bills. Now I do not agree with the current proposal as I think it does not go far enough nor is it single payer. It still is a for profit healthcare system and I believe healthcare should be a right, not a privilege.
Because of the administrative complexities in our current system, over 25% of every health care dollar goes to marketing, billing,
utilization review, and other forms of waste.
Single-payer financing is the only way to recapture this wasted money. The potential savings on paperwork, more than $350 billion per year, are enough to provide comprehensive coverage to everyone without paying any more than we already do.
Under a single-payer system, all Americans would be covered for all medically necessary services, including: doctor, hospital, preventive, long-term care, mental health, reproductive health care, dental, vision, prescription drug and medical supply costs. Patients would regain free choice of doctor and hospital, and doctors would regain autonomy over patient care.
Now with that said, any improvement will be better than what we have now. I wish it went further. Remember, there is ALWAYS money for War and bailouts, why not direct that money towards the people.
