Typical bully, sits in his Ivory Tower and pretends to superior to all of us commoners. Where is your answer. What free market solution will cover people with cancer and incurable diseases?

I understand the Free Market far better than you ever will and unless we answer this question we are heading straight for Nationalize HC. Cruz will never answer it. After all it is how he won Iowa.

Do you have cancer pools where people pay $30K per year for $40K of coverage? What is your answer?

This is the difference between talkers and doers or Marxists and Capitalists.

I have heard that Australia has a mandatory medical plan...it is three tiered, a gold plan with total coverage plan and you pay accordingly, a silver plan, which doesn’t cover you 100% and is cheaper, and a bronze plan which provides minimal coverage. You can opt for any coverage. But with this plan, the young and healthy can get by for many years on a reduced rate, up it during middle age, and get top of the line when they are elderly and more prone to illness. Maybe medical coverage needs to be provided along those lines? Maybe better minds can hone something more practical for our citizenry. I was horrified when I heard Obummer, say that 80% of the medical costs were (in effect wasted) being spent on 20% of the population...a dig I am sure that was mainly directed at the elderly. You get up in years, you do need more care. I would hate being denied medical care because some medical panel thought it a waste of money to treat me because in the scheme of things I was too old and a “useless eater”. And since Obummer’s election medical services have been denied elderly patients...open heart, hip replacements, and preventative things like mammographs after a certain age. Obamacare was just a way to get more money out of people. Those who could not afford care got it via welfare. And they still do. Everyone else, and the young who seldom bothered to carry medical care, are now being mandated to pay via their tax statement every year.
