wow stupid post all around, insurance companies help the healthcare industry, they supply money for drugs? LMAO. Do you know the markup on xanax for example it's in the 100,000 percentile, it's robbery, all other businesses have a 90% mark-up cap, but not the pharmaceutical agencies, they can do as they please, profit more then any other business in the world and still offer shit and doctored studies. Healthcare for every citizen makes sense for the collective good, money should never be worth more then lives. You're very idealistic and this bill FORCES this idealism on people who have worked hard for the money they've earned. This bill also highlights a cultural problem in America right now. Nothing is free, folks. There's a very real price to be paid here: its called an increase in health care recipients, but a decrease in the quality of care. Prepare yourself for long waits. Sure it sucks for run of the mill illnesses, but that kid with neuroblastoma with no money can now have a chance at living, insted of dying on the street in the name of profit. Run of the mill businesses? What's a run of the mill business? I might work for one, based on your definition. Doctors should have the patients interest in mind, any doctor in the profession to make money is a bad doctor. Doctors want to have a nice lifestyle, it's what kept many of them going while they were working 36 hour shifts as an intern. Most of them have worked EXTREMELY hard to have that MD after their name, and this bill is going to reduce the incentive to become a doctor. Getting fair pay is fine, and we deserve it but if thats your motive then gtfo. I dont know seeing sick kids with cancer kinda skews my view though, perhaps your right, only those who work hard should get the benefits of proper and urgent healthcare. Oh wait, isnt SES a risk factor for poor health, oh shit it is.
