Agreed, so tax them for their own good basically and make a proper healthcare system. I agree with the Wealth thing as well. The system is broken, but I doubt forcing people to have isurance (kinda like cars, but a lot worse) will do much.

See.  I'm fundamentally against taxing people for their own good.  I think people have a right to be as stupid as they want to be.  I'm more interested in universal healthcare simply because... healthcare hurts US buisnesses.

Also... the way the government works.  I don't believe government run healthcare would run smoother then the US' current system.

We need to come up with a system of healthcare that would take the politics out of it... some sort of bidding system or credit towards purchasing insurance... or something.

If government was given the ability to set prices.  They'd probably just use it to give their friends reason to give them some of that money back.

 

As long as the money comes from the government, I really don't care how its dealt with. As long as it's efficient too, of course. Can't spend the most and be so low on the list you know? I can udnersand spending a bit for logistics and all, but not 1st and 37th.
