Same place they come from now...
Where we won't waste money- 9 Figure CEO salaries, dividends for stockholders, unnecessary ER Treatments for the poor, six people in every doctor's office trying to figure out all the insurance plans... These things add nothing to health care, but they cost money.
Also, because people can get prompt treatment for things, they'll treat those ailments a lot earlier before they blow up into somethingmore serious.
Wow, yes, trolling old white racists on Twitter is just the same as genocide.
1) You will still get your procedure, unlike 25% of Americans with no or inadequate insurance.
2) Taxes would be a lot more fairly apportioned than payments are now.
It was my fault Cigna cheated me? How does that work?
Never said they "earned" it. I'm sorry your reading comprehension skills are so poor.
If a kid shows promise in HS, then, yes, he has earned the right to a college degree. The problem is, we don't make it available on merit, we make it available on ability to pay for it... and that's the problem.
Sure, and lots of people think government is their only hope because that's what government's been feeding them for 40 years. Point is, lots of people don't agree. "This is why we can't have nice things!"The reason socialized medicine won't work in the US is because there's no consensus that it's what we should do. Lots of people think it's a bad idea and are willing to fight against it. Even if the majoritarians manage to slam it through, the opposition will work to undermine it - as we've seen with ACA.
Lots of people only think it's a bad idea because the insurance companies have been filling their brains with bullshit for 40 years.
Yeah, I know, you guys always threaten violence when you don't get your way...
Taking it over is easy. You can keep paying your co-pays or you can sign on to this government program... and oh, yeah, we are going to stop letting your boss deduct your insurance costs because we have the government program now.
Bullshit, and you know it. Society doesn't change unless there is broad agreement that it should. Government follows society, not the other
way around.
You're actually throwing up a chart from 2002 to prove your point? Really? You're a joke!
Here are the current FACTS. Read it and weep!

I am not sure if he is lying or if he truly is that clueless about how money works. I guess both.
One thing is for certain, he wants to fuck the entire nation so there is no reason to believe anything he says.
You claim to live in Chicago, which explains a lot of your ignorance.
Here in Florida: The Bright Futures scholarships, or simply Bright Futures, are a set of merit scholarships for Florida students. There are three main types of award: Florida Academic Scholars (FAS) : This award covers 100% of the cost of tuition for an associate’s or bachelor’s degree program from a Florida institution, or up to 120 credit hours.
If you don't have such a thing in Illinois, that is your problem, not mine, a taxpayer in Florida!

Guy, the fact is, 70% support medicare for all.
Big insurance will squeal and cry... but screw them.

You tell yourself that buddy.
Do you know why we are going to get single payer? Because business is tired of carrying that weight.
Oh, yeah, and see below....

When you have to go to ToonHall to get your numbers, you're losing the argument.

Guy, this is where you are confused. Big insurance screws the nation. They've been screwing us for decades..
It's why we spend more than any other nation on health care and get the absolute worst results.. Like Third World Awful results.
Life expectency, infant mortality, we lag behind the rest of the industrialized world.
Many of us don't have access to employer plans. We are on our own. I pay $900 per month just for myself. Not counting the deductible and out of pocket. And that insurance sucks.Deductible are big. And most pay thousands a year even if they don’t get sick. We have a problem. I believe everyone should have access to care. I’m open to how that happens.Something in the middle is much more comfortable to accept.Yes the insurance industry loves to rob us, Our system is not good, something will change and repubs offer nothing.
GOP concentrates on lower pharma costs. Democrats want to go nuclear. Someone needs a middle ground. I agree the system is ridiculously complex and stupid.
I don’t think many go broke from pharma, though it’s more expensive than it should be. I think emergency care and surgeries are the real cost drivers.
You'd be surprised. Pharma costs could be as high as $300-400/month and many cannot afford that. Insurance companies also F*CK you when you need long term care for diabetes or cancer. If you get into an auto accident and need major surgery, 99.9% of insurance will cover you minus the deductible.
#1) Yes, they are but some employers offer better plans than others. Most pay for auto insurance and don't get into accidents. That is how insurance works.
#2) Why?
Should most people have access to free plumbing or free food too? Explain the rationale.
Except for Rand Paul, he went to Canada for surgery.When push comes to shove the wealthy from other countries come here when they have a serious medical issues. Why is that do you think?

Insurance should not be tied to your employer.
