Doesn’t it sound familiar? Hospitals (ERs) making up their loss from (uninsured) ER patients by billing higher amt to their insured patients?[/quote]Same problem, totally different solution. The government doesn’t offer a public option for auto insurance… Why? If your argument is uninsured people are the caused of spiraling health care cost, then why not force everyone to buy health insurance, like auto insurance. If you don’t, you’ll be fined.[/quote]
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?
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’.

July 28, 2009 at 11:28 AM #437899dbapigParticipantI just find it unbelievable that a country like South Korea can provide reasonable national health care for its citizens AND people of Korean ancestry holding foreign citizenships.
And US can’t.

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.

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.July 28, 2009 at 11:32 AM #438112anParticipant[quote=dbapig]
