" Obama’s is a totally government run system that in principle, does not like the private insurance industry and in theory, they would want the Federal Government to run the entire Health Insurance System.
LOL! Zero care requires folks to buy private insurance, just like Nixon's. There's no real difference, including the part about eliminating competition to run up the costs. Both of them are set up to benefit the industries and pander to their political customers by hiding costs and otherwise keeping them stupid and ignorant.
"pre-existing medical conditions, it is impossible for those folks to get health insurance, so if you have diabetes, heart issues, high-blood pressure, etc, many Private insurance firms will not even allow those types of folks to buy insurance.
It hasn't been that way for a long time. Zero care did not affect any significant change.
"Nixon’s Health Insurance plan if you stop and think about it is not in essence different from how most Retirement plans are used today."
Yes it is. No one is forcing participation. Nixon, the crook's plan forces participation just like Lord zero's plan.
"...these Defined Contribution plans are run by Private Equity Fund/Mutual Fund Companies who have accountability to their Shareholders"
LOL!
"step out of your libertarian theoretical worldview...
This is a religious thread, I will now return to the regularly scheduled program. Thou shalt not steal is not some rule of thumb to be compromised for cause. Good and evil are determined by referencing a moral code, which is a codified set of rules instituted for the purpose of protecting individual rights. For that code to be objective, it must protect the rights of every individual equally, w/o respect to posiiton, or any other qualification. Referencing the code obtains that stealing is evil, regardless of cause — unless you're at war with them.
"...and ask yourself this, which would you rather have in place. Nixon’s plan or Obama’s when one relied on the private sector the other was “Government run”.
Neither.
spunkets:
Ok, how many fortune 500 companies do you think do not have Retirement plans. So no company is required to have a retirement plan but how attractive will those companies be to potential employees?
And I did not say they were not similar, Nixon’s did not make everyone buy into the Government plan. And you are correct, this is a relgious thread not public policy or economics.
