Of course, who do you think is going to pay for it, the government, lol.
Actually, I keep hearing crap about Obama wants people who have health care through their employer to be able to keep it, which is all well and good, but the poor people who depend on the government run insurance sure can’t pay for it. The way I figure it, I’ll be able to keep my insurance buy have to pay taxes to pay for the medical plan as well – screw that, I’ll drop my insurance and go on the dole as well.
Hmm. We have socialized medicine in Australia too. If I had a heart attack, was airlifted to a cardiac unit, had a triple by-pass and was hospitalised for a month, then discharged with meds – I’d pay —–
absolutely NOTHING. The active word there is SOCIALIST which the US seems to be paranoid. There is a downside to this system of course – there can be long waiting lists for treatment, you do not have your choice of doctor and you have to go to a public (eg government owned hospital). We have private health cover as well. Since it is so expensive, a lot of people with insurance use the public hospitals, which leads to over crowding. The government here is now means testing income, so this does not occur. My father was a travel agent and would advise clients who travelled to the US to get the first plane back to Australia if they were ill (obviously, they couldn’t if the illness was severe). I have even heard of pregnant women flying to Australia to have their babies – because as I said, it’s free. It sounds like you have seen the film `Sicko` by Michael Moore – I was horrified by it, no one should have to pay for cancer treatment. It is a cruel system, set up for profit.
