As someone who is uninsured and has paid high medical bills some years, I feel very qualified to say that I do not want to be forced to buy health insurance and this bill is not for me. I have been forced to buy car insurance since I could drive, of course, and that has never worked out in my favor. Pure insurance company bailout to add a little more sugar to what they already gave AIG. |

You are correct about one thing, "anybody could" is wrong, clearly you're to stupid to understand it.. |

Yes, says the idiot who uses "anybody could" as an argument. And the only time I've seen anyone address you on this forum involved some sort of an insult, so maybe GFY ignores threads the minute you start typing? I sure as hell know that when I'm in threads that don't involve you, they are lively. Time for a career change=>(I know you're too stupid to understand anything that was just typed). Btw, the word is too, not to. How sad it must be for your kids, knowing they're smarter than their adult father. |
Let's try TheDoc logic here. Hey kid, anybody can see that you're an idiot, therefore you're an idiot!

But at the end of the day... it's not universal health care. It's a start, it's what our Country needs even if it's not the best start. Getting it going today will save us trillions down the road... just like it has every other nation with social health care. |

You're okay paying out $10k's a year for medical costs vs. less than $2400 a year? That's crazy, what you paid out in medical costs for 1 year could have paid for your coverage for your entire life... |
Someone fails to realize that the money for universal healthcare has to come from somewhere. And that only works if you're running some kind of a surplus, not all deficits.

What world do you live in where health insurance is -$200 a month? I want to live in that world. |

Here's a good read for people weighing the Pros and Cons.

"A Canadian pays less taxes than an American... yep, sux balls.. And it's free, it's a natural born right that you don't pay for, then... but when you start working, or you can opt-out of it.."
A canadian in British Columbia making $120k a year pays a grand total of 43.7% of his income in taxes. That is considerably more than most Americans making the same amount are taxed, depending on the state that they live in. |

Right. That's my point, that your health care is not free, it is covered by your higher taxes. I'm not arguing that we shouldn't have health care available to everyone I'm the first person that thinks all humans deserve equal access to healthcare.
But don't fool yourself into thinking that it's free. That money certainly has to come from somewhere, and there is no way to do it without everyone sharing in the burden. Canadians pay for their social services in the same way that we do. More social services = higher taxes. You also have HUGE sales taxes. anywhere from 5-15%, with 5% only being in alberta. The average is about 13%. |

Overall, Canadians take home more money than Americans.. twist the tax, state fees, whatever... you clear more money personally in Canada than you do as an American working the same level of job. Companies... that's a totally different story, they rape Canadian Companies. |
Best of luck ...

http://members.forbes.com/global/2006/0522/032a.html Educate yourself before spewing more bullshit. There's no evidence whatsoever that Canadians make more money than Americans. |
"Overall, Canadians take home more money than Americans."
median household incomes for canada and US: Canada - $53,634 CAD $51,973.08 USD United States - $50,233 USD Not that much more. |

I have a Canadian Company and American (porn and product based) and lived in Canada legally as a company owner/worker, for 2 years.. I have a great deal of first hand experience between the two countries.. I will admit, I was "shocked" when I learned the truth... |
Listen, if paying 10% more of my income to taxes meant that everyone on my country would have equal access to health care, I would be all for it.
But I hear this smug argument all the time that Canadians have universal healthcare, and it's free. Nya nya nya..... I'm just here to point out to you that you are paying for it, you just don't realize it. |
"Nope not much at all... but just remember, they have Insurance costs built in - so we gota add ours on top :/"
Now you're just not making any sense. Basically what you're saying now is that Americans and Canadians make about the same, but canadians pay about 10% or higher in income taxes to cover health care costs. Gee, that's what I have been saying all along. |

"So if our tax is about the same..."
Our tax is nowhere near the same. Oy. I give up. |
