Is it our goal to make everyone buy health insurance or is it our goal to make sure everyone gets the health care they need?
An observation:
Fixating on making sure everyone buys health insurance is actually depriving people of health care.
A comment:
Having health insurance is no guarantee one will get the health care they need.
Several obstacles are involved with the delivery of health care through health insurance companies:
1. High premiums.
2. High co-pays.
3. High deductibles.
Another question:
Why has the government allowed doctors to refuse to accept Medicare and Medicaid? Allowing this is sabotaging these programs.
Another question:
How come the government can force everyone to have health insurance but can't force doctors to accept Medicaid and Medicare?
Another question:
How can the government force everyone to buy health insurance but can't dictate to pharmaceutical companies the price they charge for medications?
Comment:
The private for-profit health care system has failed the American people... the time is now for a National Public Health Care System... there is no other alternative that works to provide everyone with health care.
