[quote=briansd1][quote=sdrealtor]I would be happy to pay that. Once you get over about 100K you stop paying SS so this doesnt seem like such a big deal to me if it actually helps bring health care to all. [/quote]
I’m also thinking along those lines.

Unfortunately in the most wealthy country in the world not everyone can just head off to the their drs’ appointment.[/quote]
The irony here is that flu is the sick one, the leech that is sucking more out of the heath care system than he’s putting in.
The truth is that health care cost, as a proportion of the economy is an effective tax on all of us. The best way to reduce that “tax” is to provide coverage for everyone while capping or reducing health care costs, as a proportion of the economy.[/quote]
first off brian. fvck you.
second off, I pay for my health care insurance, both as being a w2 employer who provides my health care, and also by my supplemental insurance policy that I bought and paid for myself, and yes with the high deductibles and the high premiums I pay more for insurance than the insurance companies pays the treatment facilities. But it’s still worthwhile to pay for the insurance because they, as a private entity, negotiated the rates with the hospital and doctors.
But that’s exactly the point. People *should* pay for their insurance. Everyone… So don’t tell be about being a leech. you fvcking hypocritic, who don’t even bother paying internet sales taxes, you tax cheat…
Third, it’s too bad we don’t have a better universal health plan, because maybe there would then be a treatment plan for you… apparently you were born with your ass where your head is suppose to be.
