I find the entire conversation surreal! Don't you?
Medicare has financial difficulties because gov't has made too little effort to question physicians judgment about expensive tests and fraudulent billing. Deny care??- Not that I have noticed! Yet, in the same breath people argue that Medicare is gonna kill your grandma by denying care AND that it costs too much. PHEW! Wait till the private insurers get their paws on Grandma: Grandma is going to be outsourced to Mexico....But maybe that is a good thing: warm climate, caring people, plenty of cheap pharmaceuticals.
Personally, and I do take it personally, I don't understand why so many people, here, don't want people like me to have health insurance. Its a mystery.
Yet no one has made these hypothetical arguments; they are again fabricated by you in an attempt to support the weak assertion that Government managed care will lead to better outcomes.
But alas, there are little in the way of facts to support this assertion. What I really want those who desperately support the Obama program to tell me is how this program will not add trillions to the already ballooning deficit and how this will not COST every single person in America even more.
Also answer the already asked questions that if this Government cannot even manage its own budget and protect our borders from illegal immigrants, what makes it logical that they can now manage 1/5 of this nations economy in health care better than the private markets?
I won’t hold my breath waiting for a credible well thought out answer to those questions because it is obvious you want to avoid substance.
P.S. No one is stopping you from getting healthcare, only you are doing that. What we are attempting to prevent is you and the rest of us from becoming dependent wards of the STATE which leads to higher costs, less choice and a growing bureaucratic menace that threatens the foundations of our liberties.
