“Nobody benefits from our current system except for the insurance companies that inflate the cost of health care. The poor, the jobless, and the youth of our nation have been victimized for far too long.”

David, I don’t mean to sound harsh… but have you seen the insurance rates for a health policy for a “victimized youth”? Its less than $100 per month in most cases. Most college kids I know have weekly bar tabs far in excess of this!Or they elected to by that V8 powered sportscar… they are young and healthy and therefore not concerned about healthcare…. how many of the “40 million” uninsured are uninsured “BY CHOICE”.
Yes indeed, in a free country they have the choice.
Please dont talk about “victimized youth”

Have you ever seen a government system well operated David? Any branch? Medicare?
Even if I did go with your assumption that the greedy insurance companies were the problem… Would you rather trade that for an incompetitent government program?

Of course medical coverage in this country needs to be fixed… but government run healthcare IS NOT the answer!!!
