One solution would be to have tax credits to the families that need the insurance, and tax credits to the insurance companies who would represent them. Keep it in the private industry for maximim affect. The government really would screw it up like social security, and medicare. At this level, it would be suicide for many who would have to depend on our government. In the end, the government really doesn't care about the individual, they prove that everyday. What they do care about is us depending more, and more on them, this is not a good thing.
The secret to funding a full coverage health plan for all is to NOT ALLOW the young and healthy to opt out. If you work, you pay premiums, period, no exception. The problem today is those who do not usually need insurance opt out, all those healthy, single 20 somethings....that has to stop if the country wants universal coverage.
And that coverage has to be a high deductible with HSA, major medical, not full blown PPO we have today. Basically it pays for only CATASTROPHIC maladies, not head colds. That and full coverage for preventative care, like annual physicals and screenings.
Universal coverage is NOT possible without universal PARTICIPATION.
