President Obama's healthcare plan (simplified)?

Update:

Did you watch the video?

I never said anything, at all, about other government programs.

What do you think about this simplified example of how this new "free" government healthcare will operate??

    Nothing beats competition. The public should have a chance to pick their own plan. You guess who doesn't want competition.

    First of all, Obama is not going to bring in universal healthcare, a fact that many people (including those who voted for him) seem not to realise. He wants to make insurance more available to all.

    Second, of course universal health-cover sucks. That is why we in Western Europe have it. We think, hmm, our healthcare system sucks. I know, lets keep it. I guess that is the same with Japan and Canada as well.

    FACT - the USA spends more on healthcare PER PERSON than any other nation on the planet.

    FACT - the US has higher death rates for kids aged under five than western European countries with universal health coverage.

    That means that a dead American four year old would have had a better chance of life if they were born in Canada, France, Cuba, Germany, Japan etc, all of which have universal health coverage.

    Now, I guess you can find some stories to say how universal healthcare is bad, but the facts above tell the truth. Now, if you want to keep the death rates of kids in the USA, keep the system you have. If you want the have the death rates of Western Europe, or Japan, or Canada, then you have to think about change. Because staying the same is killing children, many of whom would be alive if they were born in Western Europe.

    Like the stimulus package (S) they guessed wrong by Biden's own admission and it is a good bet hey will guess wrong on the health care issue. But once it becomes law it's too late to do anything about it. Obama and his lemmings are guessing at every turn, they don't really know what they're doing but it all sounds good. I hope I'm wrong, very wrong but I don't think I am.

    Oh brother.

    Obama's "health care" plan is intended SOLELY to provide medical benefits to the electively unemployed, lower class blacks, at the expense of the working whites.

    In other words, "REPARATIONS."

    Here's a novel idea - if the chronically unemployed welfare mooching blacks want health insurance, how about mandating FULL TIME JOBS so that they can provide for themselves!!

    As for the illegals currently getting better health-care here than many AMERICANS, passage and enforcement of the MASSIVE DEPORTATION ACT will send these bottom feeders back where they came from. As for the low level jobs they vacate? Exit Mexican, enter black welfare "parolee".

    Obama's "plan" is doomed to fail, but he'd rather compromise health care quality for white Americans so that the low class blacks benefit WITHOUT having to work for it.

    WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

    Show me that every other government branch is running smooth first, then we can talk about healthcare (that is if we don't go bankrupt from all the spending/deficit)

    particular, it is going to in all probability artwork ok for you as long as you don't get something serious incorrect with you. for sure you will in all probability would desire to schedule 2-3 months forward to make certain your universal care giver. yet once you get something serious incorrect with you, want a definite scientific technique finished or want particular drugs, you ought to be in serous difficulty
