As Ronald Reagan said, “Government is the problem, not the solution”
I can’t believe how narrow minded and uninformed so many Freepers are. All you have to do is look north to Canada to see how successful government is in the health care business.
But no one bothers to do so. The life span in America is at it’s peak, as is the quality of it’s health care. It’s obvious to anyone who is watching that you and your ilk will have their way.
What a shame, 100 years average age was within reach.
After reading your post I have to ask myself if you read mine. What ilk exactly are you referring to?
If you, even for a moment, don't think that America's health care delivery system is broken, I'm not sure how in touch with reality you are. Even the most conservative Congressional representatives acknowledge that there's serious problems with our health care system.
When Reagan was President, the uninsured only made up less than 8% of the population. Now, some estimates have the number as high as 38%. If it ever gets to 50%, which may be likely depending on how prolonged this recession becomes, radical change will be a certainty
If this oblivious sect of the conservative movement (apparently like you) doesn't stop denying the obvious an engaging the problem, we will surely end up with a Canadian solution to an American problem.
