It is 100% misdirection VinMan.
Think about it...How many times have we read or been told on the news that insurance companies are spending so much money running ads against it?
Guess what? I've never seen even ONE ad from an insurance company against the Health Care Bill. Not one.
And on all the news talk shows on CNN...I've see the Health Care bill debated by politicians. But not ONE Insurance Company guy. Not one.
This is total misdirection bro. And even though you may not want to think you can be fooled just because you're an intelligent person...guess what? You are being conned and led by the nose.
If I'm wrong...then WHY didn't the full Democratic White House, Senate, and House simply go with single pay?
Because they CAN'T. All of them are under the thumb of insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies.
This is about business. Don't ever think that any politician gives a damn about any of us. It's about money.
You're ignoring the fact that the insurance companies are now going to have hundreds of millions of new paying customers. Oh, you're 18 years old...healthy as a horse and over the next 40 years you didn't end up going to the doctor but a couple of times when you had the flu?
Well that describes how the vast majority of guys lives play out.
But now...you are gonna pay the insurance company. Oh yeah. And you're STILL gonna end up getting taxed to the ground on top of that.
It's a numbers and money game. Period.
And I wonder how this whole thing is gonna play out when the forced mandate (so anti-American) comes into play...and unemployment is running high with people struggling just to keep their homes.
The govt. needs to step the fuck up and stop the medical industry from ripping us off and shut the insurance companies down and go "single pay" if they really want to do something.
