And this sort of thing is one of the myriad reasons why we communists have better health care for less money.
Why is the US so underpant-wettingly terrified of socialised health care?

Cold war propeganda.
Socialized anything = Godless Communism = Evil Empire = eternal slavery and/or nuclear annihilation.
It'll take three or four generations to wring this formula out of fly-over America - if it can even be done at all. |

We aren't opposed. We're just stupid.
Our government already pays half or a little better all monies paid for healthcare in this country (MediCare and Medicaid). The last I had actual numbers as a consequence of working for a non-profit healthcare insurance company (2000), the average American spent 80% of what he would spend in his lifetime on medical expenses in the last two months of his life. Since the average American was round about 72 then, guess who was picking up the tab? Our federal government via MediCare - among the most popular of all federal programs. My dad spent a week in the hospital before dying last July. I just saw his bill for that week: $167,000.00. 99% covered via MediCare and Veterans' benefits.
But, we're retarded as is evidenced here: http://politicalhumo...f-My-Medicare.htm Edit: My own retarded tpyo. |
