Also i'll note it was the government who claimed they fixed it, not you. Was in a rush had to visit my Grandma at the nursing home.
Anyone in the US who wants insurance should be able to get it. Currently the people who can't are mostly those who have preexisting conditions. Something should be done for them.
Private insurance and hospitals are better then public because they don't have to watch the purse strings because they're going to be paid. There isn't a budget that needs to be watched... your more likely to be overtreated then undertreated if you choose to have insurance.
There is nobody saying "we've gone through 70% of our cancer drug allowment and it's only March."
Even then the differences in healthcare treatment are hardly anything AND aren't nessisairly due to healthcare treatment.
Something people always and vastly overlook is the effect of culture on healthcare.
A good example is to look at Roseto.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/30/books/chapters/chapter-outliers.html
Italy the country Roseto came from is ranked by the WHO to have on of the best healthcare systems in the world, sicne just about the only useful stat they study is life expectancy. However. Their healthcare system is considered a mess by the people who live there. Overcrowded, long waiting, long lines.
So why is it so great as viewed by the WHO? It's got nothing to do with healthcare. It's culture.
