AFTER ALL, WE NEED QUALITY, AFFORDABLE, UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, TOO!
Government involvement isn't needed for that to happen. YOU are more than welcome to fund healthcare for anyone you wish with YOUR money not mine. That's the problems with you asshats. You say something should be done then spend all your time trying to figure out how to get someone else to pay for it.
We need a plan which YOU can feel comfortable with as well.
Unless you are an automaton and will need no medical care, ever.
I've recently had a need for medical care. The difference is I paid for mine either as part of my compensation or what my employer doesn't cover. Those receiving subsidies have done nothing to get them.
An enlightened, civilized and Christian-esque attitude is agreed upon by most Americans on both sides of the political divide to provide for those who can't provide for themselves.
As for health care, the days of a High School or college student entering the work force and staying with that employer or maybe another one as well over the course of a 20 - 30 year working life is gone.
People are no longer able to depend on their employer for health care.
And a plan needs to be created by SOMEONE, some entity, Insurance companies, the individuals, health care providers, churches and other civic organizations and yes, the government might need to play a role as well.
We need A PLAN which reflects your situation as well as those others who need health insurance they can afford and care which is of a high standard.
I agree also that a revamping of the entitlements program is in order.
And we need to bring a halt to the entitlement mentality in this country, but in any event the GOP WILL draft a plan which will try as best as possible to address the needs of most of the people without making taxpayers bear the lion's share of the costs.
