Right now roughly 20 percent of the American population is on some form of government health care. The majority pays for the minority through taxes. But if we pay for a hundred percent of the population, how does that work? Right now it’s difficult. I have been on Medicaid and it sucked. I couldn’t get health care. I am now on my feet and I have private health care. I much prefer to pay because I get so much better care. So what are people thinking they are going to get when they get government care?

I have heard that the State of Colorado is going to try and get a law passed that will make health insurance be mandatory as part of your vehicle insurance (for those not covered by health insurance – we will pay). has anyone heard of this ridiculous notion?

Say you owe a hospital bill, and some day free health care kicks in, would the debt be forfeit?

If so, would there not be potential for abuse for people who can pay the bill? And if not how does this solve poor/uninsured people’s problem if they still have debt they can’t pay?

Are we struggling to build a good life for ourselves and hopefully an inheritance for our children but to be denied medicare or medicaid assistance that we have paid our entire lives for because we have paid our homes off and we have saved some money? What is this? But illegal immigrants and recent immigrants to the USA can get health care for free? Now tell me why a total overhaul of our health care system is not needed?

My father and mother are very ill, and their medicine and health care expenses are through the roof. My father barely gets any disability (he’s a double amputee). I’m trying to help them and was wondering how I could get medical help in Canada for them? Please only serious answers my parents are extremely ill.

I would like to know why some people outright refuse health care coverage in any form.

Socialized health care is what they have, right? What is the difference between ours and theirs?

Which one do you think we should have? Why?

This isn’t an essay question or anything, I really am interested to see people’s views on this.

Thanks.

When someone shows up with an AR-15 to a health care protest, what exactly are they trying to say. Why do they bring their AR-15s to health care protests, but not other protests?

Do they really think they are going to help the fight for second amendment rights by causing people to worry about their sanity?

The health care system in the United States is in trouble. Many people can’t afford insurance or go to the doctor. Many bankruptcies are the cause of health care cost. Something really needs to be done in the United States to improve our health care.

Do you think our health care system will change in 10 years? If so, to what kind of system? (universal health care, HMO’s, a partnership between government and the private sector, etc.). If you could change the system today, what would be the one change you would like to see enacted immediately?
