I find it hilarious how they are accusing Obama of "buying votes" when Romney's expect to raise unprecedented amounts of money through his Super PAC. It was conservative judges who supported Citizen's United that allowed unlimited money in politics, and conservative law makers who support the idea of a super pac. Of course, Republicans usually accuse others of what they themselves are doing, so I'm not really surprised. It's a good political strategy I guess.
In any case, to reply to something earlier: public health care isn't cheaper because of reduced paper work. I think the inefficiencies of government bureaucracy that most Americans have to deal with kind of confirm that.
It's cheaper because public health care systems are not run for profit. They are run at costs. They don't have to worry about maximizing their profits every quarter, nor do they have to pay any executives or CEOs millions of dollars.
Of course, say what you will about how good or bad it is. I've heard nothing but good things about these systems from friends in Canada and the UK, and these systems lack things like corporate run death panels that determines who lives and who dies through things like "pre-existing conditions", but whatever. I'm sure a public health care system has its own problems, though I wouldn't know since I don't live in one.
