Healthcare Passes in the House

Well Here is the thing, both US and Canadian systems have problems. Wait times can be worse in Canada, but I think that is most likely because of the price difference. Health care costs more here in the US, if it was cheaper more people could get it, which would lead to longer waiting times. The way I see it, this argument was formed by people who could care less about those who can't afford it.

Wiki article

Fact is both systems have huge flaws, but personally I prefer a system that gives people an equal chance for healthcare than one that favors the rich. Canada got ranked at 30 out of 191 nations while the USA was ranked 37 for heath care systems, but at the same time overall health in canada was ranked 35th while the US came in at 72nd. I see a decent point in favor of a canadian like system right there.

Lmao, I love how dramatic people are about things. XD
I love how you're too blind to realize the hell that will ensure if the Senate passes the bill.
A better America.
After the revolution.
What revolution?
The one that will ensure sooner or later. Because a lot of people will make sure some poor *censored.5.0* pays if the Senate passes the bill.

Because who cares about thousands of lives when some rich dudes have to pay a little more for health care?

Those thousands of lives could actually begin working. |: Granted, there are some out there who are complete exceptions. Most are not and are generally lazy and just want a dammed handout, which is pretty much what they got from that "Stimulus" Bill. Tell me, what good did it do besides put us in further debt?

The stimulus came far too late to be effective. By the time it was out, we were climbing out of the recession, there by wasting nearly a trillion dollars.

So then tell me, what do you think will actually come out of this Bill other than debt and higher taxes?

Just FYI, you won't get anywhere with Perry. He's a faaaaar left Democrat.
And when I say far, I mean he admires socialism. Seriously. Not making this up.

The healthcare crisis, unlike the economy, isn't going to magically fix itself.

So you believe this Bill will actually work?
