I work in healthcare and deal with insurance companies all the time. I also deal with the insurance side of our business and it is ridiculous the cost involved. The cost of the insurance is our fault, the government and our lack of ability to hold them accountable. The public is constantly ripped off by the insurance companies check your EOB's those have a huge error rate. We have healthcare for everyone right now no one wants to admit it but it is financially ruining us as a country. That is true that there are people out there who are in great need and are not lazy but this is not the majority. Majority is the other way around. If you really need help you can go to charities and all that there are a unbelieveable amount of prgrams available.
Affordable & sensible healthcare is a right & I don't mean going to the Emergency room when you have a fart crosswise or a hangnail like the illegal Aliens do because they think theyre entitled & that prices most people out of health insurance because the cost has to be paid out of somewhere.
Children of citizens under the age of 18 should get a reasonable amount of health care. Why punish a kid who can't move out on their own if their parents are &*%$heads who won't pay for insurance?
Once a person reaches 18 they are able to work and can pay their own insurance. Exceptions would be someone who is physically or mentally unable to care for themself and these people should get the care they need.
here is what I think.
I don't think anyone working for the city, county, state or federal government should be able to get healthcare for anything cheaper than I can get it working for a small company. They work for me and shouldn't get better coverage at a lower cost.
Health care providers need to put out a plan and a cost just like any other comodity. It can't vary by how big or small of a group you are in.

You can call it a right or priviledge whatever.
As far as I am concerned one of the main purpose of gov't is to provide TEMPORARY help for people, not a living. And also help out when things happen out of a person's control. Noone can protect against getting sick/ill. And stuff like that should not bankrupt a person who worked hard all his life. Besides once they go bankrupt, they get free hea;th care anyways. So how about not letting them get to bankruptcy.
You cant be productive if you are not healthy and healthy people will make for a productive society

See how easy it is to convert people to socalism simply by giving them something for "free".
The Constitution says the Federal Govt has 1 purpose....National defense........NOTHING ELSE!!!!!!

i happen to live in ny which is awful for health insurance, but for about 90% of the population they can buy catosttrophic coverage for like 50 bucks a month in case something awful happens
other than that if you get the flu ever 2 years and it costs you 200 bucks boo hoo
most people who have 0 coverage could come up with 50 bucks a month if they sacrificed some unessasary crap they are paying for
It's already been a right for a long time. Somebody needs treatment, they go down to the hospital, and the hospital is obligated to treat them. If they have no money, the hospital gets fucked, and it is an uncollectable debt. So the poor have free health care, and the rich don't have any concerns over the cost. It's the middle class, those with assets but not wealth......we are the ones with the problem. I have no problem with Obama's plan, but passing it is going to be another thing altogether. Letting the private sector run the care, and having gov't group health insurance available to everyone.....well that sounds like a damn fine idea on paper. We already have gov't health insurance.....it's called Medicare. There is no reason why we can't have a huge gov't group health plan. The system is fucked up now.......you get medical problems and you become uninsurable, so you have to be on a group health plan for the rest of your life to have the protection that you need. You couldn't start your own small business, even if you wanted to. That's fucked up.
