The truth is; if there was no such thing as insurance, prices for services that rely on insurance claims would adjust to the average household income, thus we would all be able to afford the services.

July 24, 2009 at 12:00 AM #436040temeculaguyParticipantI quit worrying about this a few years back, I used to be opposed to it but now I figure that every other 1st world country has some form of it and it works at least somewhat, so what am I afraid of. Our poorest get free health care, our lower-middle seem to get the shaft, it seems out of whack a little. Every time I go to a hospital, there is no shortage of people of questionable citizenship or trailer folks, so how much different could free health care be.
No matter what direction we go as a nation, status quo, fully nationalized or somewhere in the middle, decisions will have to be made. Not everyone will get everything, some people will die, someone or some board will have to make the decisions, like they do now. Most European countries cut back on lifesaving expenses at about age 75 and just concentrate on comfort, we tend to spend a great deal of money on people that won’t get better or are gonna die soon anyway. I shouldn;t say this because I’m no spring chicken, but if the difference between 78 and 78.5 years of age is going to set the rest of you back a few hundred grand, just give me some morphine, kiss me goodbye and tell me I’ll be missed. Most of the UK and Canadian health stories about waiting and dying are anectdotal and rare. It works and people are happy with it in every other industrialized country, so I’m no longer afraid of it.
I would prefer to avoid copying the UK’s dental plan if at all possible, yikes!!
