youngfarang Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Simple, he'll lose everything he has earned in his life paying the bill, at a much higher price than an insured person would be charged. Assuming he couldn't cover it, he'd either be paying it off forever, or else it would get dismissed in a bankruptcy, and the result would be those with insurance would have to pay more to make up his share. This happens everyday in this country. What I don't get is all these government employees who are fed off the taxpayer tit, and or retired and living off it, not wanting the other taxpayers to have what they have. I have worked almost non stop from the time I was 18, paid my taxes etc...if I lose my job, I lose my insurance, never mind the Cobra plan etc, I can't afford it with no job. Why some people don't want me to have medical insurance/coverage in this event is baffling. Equally as baffling is why these same people don't want to have any medical coverage should they be in the same position. All I hear from these people is "I don't want my tax money going to pay for illegals and those who don't work..." forgetting this already happens, and they are already paying...Every other developed nation has some form of health care for it's citizens, yet "the greatest nation on earth" does not... Don't worry OH, if you lose your job you can apply for medicaid. Get a good taste of how "Universal Health Care" works. Then I can hear you BITCH even more about healthcare.

youngfarang Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Second side note, people seem hell bent on making Obama fail at any cost, how unpatriotic is that? Sorry OH, can't have it both ways. You can't talk shit about Bush and then tell me how unpatriotic it is to challenge the fuck-up we have in office right now. If we were to judge the patriotism of people by the way they talk about their president, you, BT, SD, and Chappie would be the most unpatriotic people I know.

Does that mean you are going to join the Marines tomorrow? Or are you going to apply after the war is over? When do you have to join the marines to prove you are patriotic? I guess that you must have felt that the only way to be patriotic was to join the services? There are plenty of other ways to be patriotic but I think your too dumb to figure that out. Thats ok I kinda thought there was something wrong with you mentally, you have confirmed my suspicions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AH, but, if I had NO insurance, than even crappy coverage would be better no? Depending on what old person you talk to, medicare/medicaide/mediCal is either good/efficient, or it sucks...trouble i see is the buracracy with it...same as with any medical insurer that doesn't want to pay. But for people with nothing, it is better. Have you ever been in that situation? no job? no money? no medical coverage? NO family to help you? I have, it sucks. Now lets say you were riding your bike to the sandwich shop you work at, fell off, broke your leg, and needed surgery to stop an infection/fix the leg...no insurance, no money and NO family to help you...what would you do? what would happen to you? oh, and add to that no taxpayer to suck medical from...now what? get the service and skip the bill? go in debt the rest of your life? well...?

WHY?!?!?! Get your picket signs BT, we need to stand outside the Whitehouse and ask the prez why he never put on a uniform of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA over and over and over again.

rchapstick Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 I thought not ... You tend not to think at all most of the time. Lame response YF. Again, if you are so concerned about deficits, than why weren't you bitching about Bush's war, and the deficits incurred then? Also, if the US's healthcare system is so swell, then why is it that 50mm Americans do not have access to it? Sure, we have great doctors, and great technology ... just a lousy, inefficient delivery system. Don't hurt yourself while you try to come up with your next witty, but evasive reply.

KimDidMeGood Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Get a good taste of how "Universal Health Care" works. I've heard that "socialist" western-Europe countries that have a state-based universal health-care system spend 2 to 3 less money/inhabitant for health-care compared to what USA spends, for a wide coverage of everyone. I've even heard American citizens who happened to live there stating how reluctant they were to come back to the US of A after enjoying that kind of system for many years.
