Japan has extremely low amounts of violent crime, drug addiction and obesity...their costs are lower because they are healthier. They also pay their doctors a fraction of what a doctor here makes. Now you COULD simply ignore the poor health of so many Americans and assume that putting in a single payer system would result in the same 9% of GDP being spent but who would be THAT naive? Oh, that's right...Joey would!
What liberals like Joey don't want to address is that the majority of the new people being insured by ObamaCare have health issues that are going to be enormously expensive to treat. The poor have far more obesity...they are more apt to be addicted to drugs...they are more apt to smoke. Then there are the people with pre-existing conditions. Think that THEY are going to cost the same to treat as those who did not have pre-existing conditions?

Right. And everyone else who spends the same amounts with single payer, they are all healthier than we are, too.
Hey, dumbass, has it occurred to you the reason why we are so unhealthy as a nation is because we treat health care as a consumer commodity instead of a public service? Has this occurred to your tiny fucking little mind that if you are paying for every pill and doctor's visit, you aren't going to spend as much taking care of yourself?
Oh yeah, Japan's doctor pay vs. ours.
General Physician Average Salary Income - International Comparison
US- $ 8,189
Japan -$ 5,401
I guess 2/3rds is a fraction, but Japanese doctors aren't starving.

Yeah, FUCK THEM POOR PEOPLE!!!
You know, Dog Style is one of those Republicans who watches "It's a Wonderful Life" and cheers for Mr. Potter.
Why don't those Poor people just die already instead of whining to us with their health problems.
Man, guy, do you realize just how fucked up you sound most of the time?
Go down to your local Walmart and take a good look at the average American going through the checkout line, Joey See what's in their food cart. Check out what kind of shape they're in. Then tell me the the poor health of the country is because we have had a private healthcare system.
Typical liberal response when someone points out that their policies won't work in the real world.
Japan is a very nonviolent society. We are not. If I lived in Japan I wouldn't need to carry a gun for self protection. I don't however. I live in America where people like Michael Brown roam the streets taking what they want because they're bigger than someone else.

Oh, boo-hoo, you had to wait behind some lady with an EBT card at Wal-Mart. This obviously scared you for life...
The lady I waited behind was about 5'2" and probably weighed 250 pounds. She didn't "scare" me or scar me...she simply reinforced my belief that we in the US are teetering on the edge of a healthcare catastrophe because of things like chronic obesity. If you're passing healthcare legislation without taking that into consideration then you're naive, Joey.

Wow, dude, you must have been seriously traumitized by the scary fat woman.
You could try to ask the big agribusinesses to stop putting hormones and shit into the food that causes obesity, but that might deny a rich person a profit or something.
Again, plenty of money out there to pay for single payer. We just need less greedy corporations and more compassion.
Like the Germans, Japanese, Brits, Canucks, etc.
That's correct, if you redesign the system and spend it correctly, neither of which Americans, the I Got Mine People, are willing to do, and the powers that be don't have the balls to.Plenty of money out there to pay for single payer...
It isn't what their largest contributors AKA- the Rick Scotts of the world want them to do because it will cut down their obscene profits that the shit stain- Oldstyle thinks republican jesus guarantees them.That's correct, if you redesign the system and spend it correctly, neither of which Americans, the I Got Mine People, are willing to do, and the powers that be don't have the balls to.Plenty of money out there to pay for single payer...
Plenty of money out there to pay for single payer...yet the Governor of Vermont couldn't swing it? His problem...and yours, Joey...is that once the Middle Class figures out what THEY are going to be expected to shell out of THEIR pockets to pay for it...they are going to be out in the streets with pitchforks and torches looking for liberals to run out of town.
