I was trying to get your attention and make you think rather than type another kneejerk response.
We are already paying for it - through medicaid, and through national health care if it comes to pass.
Then change the law and quit paying for it.
Its alot cheaper to have walmart pay for it and raise the prices on a few of their items to cover it, along with other businesses.
Get government out of the health-care business and they will have to pay for it.
Is that really too difficult for you to understand?
perhaps for "low level" medical care, a pay as you go model would work. and MSAs can help there. but for major medical and hospitalization, people will always need insurance.
our party needs some comprehensive solutions on health care - fast. because people who work in the private sector know exactly what is going on, their companies are shedding health care plans and retiree medical (totally gone in many cases) as fast as they can.
