Comments on: My Idea To Fix The Health Care System In The United States http://www.misanthropytoday.com/my-idea-to-fix-the-health-care-system-in-the-united-states/ Hating Everyone Since 2005 .............(This Could Take Awhile) Wed, 01 Feb 2012 01:10:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Sardonicus Amadeus Stanfield http://www.misanthropytoday.com/my-idea-to-fix-the-health-care-system-in-the-united-states/#comment-5031 Sardonicus Amadeus Stanfield Sat, 26 Sep 2009 23:45:21 +0000 http://www.misanthropytoday.com/?p=1971#comment-5031 Well said. I can't believe people still scream for it. All you have to do is talk to anyone from ANY country that has universal health care and they'll tell you really quick that it's a bad move. I mean, I have insurance, and I have a very expensive preexisting condition, which would normally cost me a $2,000.00 average per month to treat, and that's at minimum. If we had universal health care, eventually private insurance would be phased out, or too God damn expensive to be able to afford it. The government would take one look at me and say "you're on your own, you're not COST EFFECTIVE enough to treat." Well said. I can’t believe people still scream for it.

I think the point that most people are missing is that the government does everything badly and expensively. I've been to city state and federal (VA) hospitals and they all look like hell-holes. I'd rather more hospitals like Kaiser popped up and were like the fucking Walmarts of hospitals. The problem with liberals is that they're statists. They want the state involved with commerce. They want oversight and regulation and, subsequently, vast corruption. The two should hardly know each other (commerce and the state). I don't want to poison the well but one of the first things a government does when it is moving toward totalitarianism or fascism is start taking over companies. (Volkswagen and Mercedes Benz anyone?) So, if you're wondering why anyone would think that universal health care is a bad idea, that is why. And because we'll have to pay for it one way or another. Let Walmart get into the healthcare business I say.

Kaiser Permanente definitely gets points for sounding like some mustachioed dictator. But I would have to say it comes in second to COBRA... because it's COBRA in ALL CAPS.

Here in Israel we actually have this shitty free social health care. The thing is that no one ever questions it and everyone discards it as "just another way for the government to rip us off". It gets worse - if you need to undergo some serious opertaion, you will receive it for (almost) free only after you've proven that you have absolutely no income and savings. Meaning - first you have to pay for everything yourself and than sue the country in order to get what you deserve. It should take a few years. So yeah, social health care is bad. Huh.
