I agree. I think we should increase it. (People forget that i'm pro-universal healthcare.)

The problem is when you decide to pay for it by being predjudiced against one group that makes an easy target rather then having the country as a whole roll up their sleeves and say "Lets get this done for our country and our poor."

The first kind of thinking really promotes forming different castes and having them beat each other over the head, rather then a society that works together to get through it's troubles.

 

But you do not like the NHS right?

You could make it work well though... Medicaid sounds like a good program, how come you guys don't pull it out in debates more often?

Medicade, like the NHS, doesn't work too well. That's why we don't bring it up in debates that often. Medicare is the same way. We have multiple governmental programs for healthcare for the poor in our society...They're very expensive, and the results really aren't that great. That's why some of us dislike the way the system is handled.
