OK, with the out of the way, proceed with our regular program, Government health plan bashing.  |
You may cal it Goverment health plan bashing if you like, I call it history...................
Look at the goverment's history of running ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Postal Service
Social Security Administration
VA Hospitals
Medicare/Medicade
The welfare system we now have.......
What do they all have in common????? Broke or going broke!!!!!!!!!
Why is the postal system broke and UPS is not??????????
Answer: because the goverment runs the postal system and not UPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Past history proves the goverment will not be able to run health care 1/2 as good as the private sector......
Look at the other countries that have goverment run health care (ie Canada/England), 2 to 3 months waiting for an x-ray for your broken leg,same for most other ailments, lack of doctors/nurses to staff the hospitals......wondery why????? why should anyone want to become a doctor to work for the goverment making 60 grand a year after 12 years and thousands of thousands of dollars in schooling????? same goes for nurses.........
Did you ever wonder why 1/2 or more of the doctors in any hospital in America are from a foreign country?????????? Go ask anyone of them why they practise medicine in America and not in their homeland, I think you'll have your answer.........
What part of all of this do you not understand or comprehend?????????
