Yep, that's what the experts are saying. - VA = government-run health care.

to NOT have universal healthcare. Check out Germany's plan. That's a winner.
We have become a country of greed that only cares about money instead of people's lives. And many on this board are okay with that. When someone's ability to keep living depends on the number of dollars in his/her wallet, then our country has lost its morals and is just plain evil.
Abolish the health insurance industry. There will always be other kinds of insurance that they can sell. Healthcare insurance, the way it works, is just plain WRONG, with CEOs earning MILLIONS of dollars a year on the backs of those most needy. Money should not be an issue when it comes to staying alive.

The Myths Of The Single Payer SystemOct 26, 2013For all the people who want a socialized health care system (i.e. single payer system), it's not what you think it is. This is written by someone who has been working in the field for years and understands it. There are also people in other countries in this type of health care system that cross referencing verfies the accurancy of this information.

Single-payer Is NearMar 15, 2011I've been called a racist, hater, lair, Nazi, crazy, evil, scary, extremist, violent, stupid, homophobe, Islamaphobe, and fear monger (among other things) for telling people this would happen. Why am I not surprised this is coming out now? You have no idea how bad I wanted to be proved wrong. Sigh.

Single Payer For AllJul 26, 2017If we really want single payer it makes sense to include items that will reduce the cost for everyone.

Physicians For Single PayerJul 24, 2017The program would be funded by the savings obtained from replacing today’s inefficient, profit-oriented, multiple insurance payers with a single streamlined, nonprofit, public payer, and by modest new taxes based on ability to pay. Premiums would disappear; 95 percent of all households would save money. Patients would no longer face financial barriers to care such as co-pays and deductibles, and would regain free choice of doctor and hospital. Doctors would regain autonomy over patient care.

Anyone Ever Tried That Hair Removal System No No?Jul 29, 2013I believe it's called the No No??? It is a hair removal system that supposedly you can use for legs, underarms, and EVERYTHING.

Fraud In Health Care SystemMar 13, 2010It is estimated that there is at least 100 billion dollars health care fraud annually. There are truly needy people and they should be helped. But there are also many people who don't have health insurance because they just do not want to pay premiums, use their money for other things instead, when they could pay and are able to pay. This is just not right and this needs to be stopped, and that should make a dent in health care costs. Why not go after the health care ...

Question: Why Do You Think Americans Are (generally) Willing To Accept A Two-party System?Jul 29, 2013Here's the reason for my question: The two-party system is, and has been corrupt for a long time.
