The Week Private Health Care Was Saved?
The Week Private Health Care Was Saved?
Posted by Doug Bandow on 06/20/09 11:56 AM Last week might be the week when private health care was saved. Obviously, the current system has problems. We spend more than we should because of perverse incentives created by government. But the American system possesses enormous strengths, including quality of care and choice by patients. We have to defend these from any government takeover. What may have saved American health care was the Congressional Budget Office coming up with honest estimates of the enormous cost of the legislation now being proposed by leading Democrats.

Re: The Week Private Health Care Was Saved?
I think that for-profit health care is a travesty.
We all have a right to proper health care. No one should die because they can't afford treatment to live. If you support private health care, what's wrong with you? Do you actually enjoy paying bills when your insurance won't cover critical treatments? I need an inhaler at all times. If I can't cough up $30, I don't have one That adds up over time. I don't care about the ObamaCare sticker shock. We have spent far more on wasteful wars and no one seemed to care that much (the general population that is). Suck it up and make it so that everyone has health care. I want my taxes going towards it. |
