Why do Republicans think we as a country are too stupid to insure all of our citizens and for less money? Why do Republicans let France shame us when they can insure all of their citizens for 9% of GDP while we only insure 80% of our citizens while paying 17% of GDP?
France rates #1 in overall health care while the Greatest Country on Earth rates #37.
Ofcourse due to the opposition Obama never persued the single payer option that could have saved this country hundreds of billions, instead he went after this more expensive system and even though it pretty much keeps the status quo Republicans have gone rabid.
If you have plenty of money the U.S. health care is #1 by far. Rush Limpbrain and Shaun Insanity both get #1 health care. They are deathly afraid their tax rate may go up so that a 25 year old single mother with cancer can get the proper care. Rush and Shaun are actually upset that insurance companies will no longer be able to deny or charge higher premiums for someone with a pre existing condition (and they are quite often at an economic disadvantage because of their illness). They equate it with good drivers and bad drivers and if everyone pays the same rate the good drivers will become sloppy drivers. (stupid huh?) How can anyone in their right mind equate car insurance with health insurance? Well, Rush and Shame are not in their right mind of course.
The best example of Republican thinking is this caller on a talk show. He said he was a “Minister” and a Republican. He said, “if people want health care they should go to school, get an education so they can’t get the kind of job that provides health care”.
For my fellow thinkers out there you will see the stupidity in that statement right away (education is always good) however the Ditto heads are saying “RIGHT ON”.
