Healthcare is pricy and everyone is concerned. Why are these guys so insistent on putting health care into the hands of private coorporations?

Because those same coorporations Phizer, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and Merck just to name a few are FOR PROFIT. They keep prices up to make a profit. Why do we have a system that profits off people who are sick?

ALL HEALTH CARE whether its a drug company, health insurance, nursing home or hospital should be non profit. That immediately drives down cost. If it takes Government run universal health care plan to do it, so be it.

The only gripe in Canada about universal health care is about wait times for major operations. Well if thats the only problem sign us up. Im sure there is enough brain power to fix that one flaw.

How many would sign up for knowing that employed or unemploted we could walk into our doctor's office and not have to worry about paying for it?

I think what really scares people about the thought is change and having to go through the changes it would take to create that system.
