Backdoor to socialized medicine?

[quote=investor]I don’t, but I got this from a person well connected to high ranking individuals in the health insurance field. We will have to see where it all falls out. I do think that health insurance companies are worried about thier financial existence right now.[/quote]

As well they should be. Why do people need insurance when everyone has access to health care? All you need at that point is a bunch of clinics, hospitals, and doctors. I’d much rather see government money go to that than to a bunch of no-value-provided insurance companies.

Insurance companies getting worried about their existence? I hear in Germany, they are prohibited from making any profit (that’s right, 0 profit) but they still do business.

Don’t be afraid of doom scenario – because it can’t possibly be worse than this.

I wish republicans played a more constructive role in these debates – like limiting coverage exploits and excessive malpractice lawsuits… but they stopped being a responsible party long ago. it’s a shame.

You’d expect there to be a balancing period where insurers and the health care administrators juggle the numbers until the penalty option no longer becomes viable. Universal health care, in one shape or another, is very likely going to become a thing of the future, and transitioning may be a little bumpy, but the US will be the better for it. It may not be a perfect solution, but it will provide more cover to more people, by reducing costs which is really what this is all about. The inverse is true for the current (now past) system, which was headed in the wrong direction. It will all be water under the bridge in a few years, and the bill’s detractors will eventually acquiesce. The task for the future, will then be to ensure future voters make health care a priority to keep future governments on their toes. What will be interesting is, who will be better at it, the Republicans or the Democrats, and will this change the political landscape?

Looks like these health bills are not as popular as one would seem.

http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/03/25/congress.threats/index.html?hpt=T1

Washington (CNN) — Shots fired at a congressman’s campaign headquarters. Windows smashed at Democratic offices across the country. A coffin placed on a lawmaker’s lawn. Hate-filled voice mail messages left on members of Congress’ phone lines.

Those are just some of the incidents reported since the House passed historic health care reform legislation Sunday — a bill that became the law of the land.

wow, never thought that folks would be that extreme and mad.
