need for natioal health care

[pellaz]

... The US does not need universal healthcare ...

All of the developed nations have health care. We need to look at what is working or not for other countries. What ever we do we wont be creating anything new.

granted government programs are spastic but:
-did you ever submit a major health claim to your insurance company? Say like a broken leg? Not a lot of fun, the paperwork goes on for months and there are hidden costs. Better not crash your car while on vacation. This is no better than dealing with a government agency.
-what happens if you have a pre existing condition the insurance company dosnt like, your gone.
-costs are out of control, its not like health care professionals are under paid.
-It takes years for medical technology to trickle down and not have a Thalidomide scandal
