I didn’t say uninsured people is the only reason of spiraling health care cost. It is one of the reasons, don’t ya agree?[/quote]
Yes, I totally agree with this. It’s definitely one of the causes. Why else are hospital below the 8 bleeding cash while hospital above the 8 tend to have profit.
[quote=dbapig]My understanding is (since nothing in firmed up yet) that if you don’t have insurance through employer-based one, than you have to participate in non-profit and/or govt sponsored one.
The fine is an incentive to make sure everyone shares paying for the cost for providing basic health coverage for most americans. I don’t think you need to be scared by the word ‘fine’.[/quote]
I personally don’t think we NEED a non-profit and/or govt sponsored option. Have you tried to go to the DMV lately? I’ve never seen private businesses that offer customer service, work so slow. I had to wait almost 2 hours just to tell them I need a new driver license, pay, then get a printed paper temp license.
