#1 You're right Health Care SHOULDN'T be expensive (well as expensive as it is) but if the Democrats get their way they will look out for the people whose votes they want (the poor, illegal immigrants, college students, and solidifying their partnership with the SEIU) AND by "nationalizing" Healthcare they would create more Government jobs and more Government Unions feeding the beast of Democrat politics.

#2 As private companies in a capitalist system (well supposedly capitalist system) your job is to make money. Insurance companies get burned by customers and like any other company they try to negate that loss by passing the buck to other customers. Hospitals pass the buck to insurance companies too and Hospitals pass the buck to people that use hospitals too because Little Miss Welfare Queen comes in and pops out a few more checks....I mean "babies" and skips on the bill someone has to pay it and that someone is us.

The major issues with the Health Insurance companies is that they can cancel care if you're too sick or continuously sick....I think that's wrong. Insurance is best described as a gamble and that is like betting on black, it landing on red and you taking your bet off the table before the winner can rake it in. Also COBRA policies only last so long, if employers are going to provide healthcare then employees need the choice to keep that plan if they get fired or what have you, now a days you just get the boot. Also the paperwork is always different it burns up man hours and that in the end costs tons of money.

Healthcare isn't a simple fix, but it's simpler than Washington makes it seem. Because one side wants to watch out for the Drug Companies and one side wants to watch out for the Insurance groups and while that's goin gon nobody is watching after the citizens. While I'm at it, I love the private healthcare system.....and if a government system could run like this then fine but I KNOW 100% FOR CERTAIN it not so much can't but WON'T and that's one of the reasons I'm against this current healthcare bill.
