Why not? Hospital fees would fall drastically! Funny how no body really knows what the hospitals charge... And funny how socialist countries are ranked above U.S.

Oh yeah and I love how doctors in U.S. are pill salesmen.... Pathetic.

Eliminate Health Insurance and guess what!!! Healthcare will be affordable!

I hate insurance companies. Not sure if you're saying the government will pay the docs and hopsitals .. no one would stand for it. We can't even get acceptance of something called the Affordable Care Act. It's NOT insurance but everyone thinks it is.



As for all the people talking about supply and demand ... did it occur to any of you that the demand in THIS case is not a WANT it's a NEED. There a difference in how markets can work in those two very different types of demand. Everyone wants to be able to receive treatment when they're ill. They're not going to sit around waiting for the price to be right to have a cancer biopsy! Some HAVE to go without but it's not like deciding you can't afford a big screen TV for crying out loud.



The Affordable Care ACT puts some regulations on those assholish insurance companies when it comes to health insurance. SOMEONE pays for those who don't have health insurance and it's the GOVERNMENT or PAYING PATIENTS (in the form of rising costs to cover the underinsured and the uninsured).



So .. why is it so bad to ask people to pay for health insurance .. particularly when it's being made affordable for many more people.



If 1/2 the people against the ACA/Obamacare actually UNDERSTOOD what it does, they'd likely be in favor of it. If you want to continue to believe it's some awful thing because some wealthy politicians WITH HEALTHCARE of their OWN tell you it's bad feel free! Just be aware that you ARE benefitting from it one way or another.

Obama wants to punish people who dare to buy their own insurance but not because of health. It is about control and grabbing your life by the B@lls. They want to know where you are, what you are doing and they want to be able to deny you what you need to make you follow their plan and stick with the program.

Health insurance is a good thing. But if you are an illegal alien you don't really need it.

What is it with Americans accusing everyone/everything of being socialist?

Don't you people have (or know how to use) common household dictionaries?



If more Americans did that, fewer Americans would embarrass themselves and their nation with nonsensical talk of nonexistent socialism because nobody anywhere is actually socialist.



Universal healthcare is a social program.

Social programs are NOT socialism. They're two VERY different things:

-Socialism is where there's no government and the people own & control everything themselves.

-Social Programs are public programs & services paid for by governments.

In the case of Universal Healthcare, it's a form of health insurance whether you realize it or not.



Canada has universal healthcare. And it's absolutely capitalist, not socialist:



'Canada: Richer than America and more economically powerful than Europe'

'The most prosperous nation in the Americas, Canada ranks first in personal freedom'

'Canadians getting richer, average net worth tops $400,000'

Canada first and only G7 country to recover all jobs lost during recession'

'Canada to lead G7 nations in average growth for next 50 years: OECD'

'Canada Trounces U.S. In Best Countries For Business'

'Canada leads North America in economic freedom'

'Americans moving to Canada in record numbers: report'

'Look out, Americans, average Canadian is richer than you are'

'Study: Canadians Live Longer, Healthier Lives Than Yanks'

'Canadians pay less tax per person than Americans'

'Americans enjoy less economic mobility than their peers in Canada'

'U.S. students flocking to study in Canada for cheaper fees'

'U.S. Unemployment: Canada Sees "Dramatic Growth" In American Job-Seekers'

'Americans are the latest economic refugees, and they’re heading to Canada'



You want to save $$$ on healthcare, move to Canada or Europe.

Because the vested interests in US healthcare (HMOs, insurance industry & etc plus their lobbyists have Americans so screwed up that it's the 21st Century and despite instant access to information via the internet, you people mostly think universal healthcare somehow = socialism.

You're like cultists that need extensive deprogramming in order to smarten up.

No it won't, Health-care will only be affordable if you take the free-market approach out of it(basically make it a state-run institution).



The medical industry is build on symptom treatment, instead of healing these days, which means they won't be affordable, just because you can't pay, they want you to struggle, it'll make their service more in demand, and higher demand, higher prices.

You can move anytime you care to. No one is forcing you to live here. There's always Costa Rica or Puerto Rico .. No ones saying we had the best Health care before but we had a choice. Sure, we need to revamp our healthcare system. Heck, we need to revamp all of our systems here. We certain are going to revamp our new "entitlement" program....I'm guessing but you can't be a citizen of the U.S.

No, how about we allow the doctors and employers to decide. health insurance is very costly due to all the people who need it, that's supply and demand.

This is stupid simple and I am disgusted by the human race for accepting bullshit arguments. If you are sick you receive treatment from medical professionals and medical organizations - doctors, nurses, pharmacists, pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, etc. All insurance does is take money out of the system.



Think about it. You are a patient. You get healthcare from a doctor. What does the insurance agent contribute to the system? Nothing!! They don't contribute squat to your health! What is wrong with people? Seriously!?!!!
