Comments:
1. It's not TRILLIONS for the Iraq war, it's only a few
hundred
billion.

Probably more like a trillion if we're honest about all
the
costs
that
will continue (e.g. caring for the tens of thousands of
maimed
soldiers).


2. The current system is not broke. About 253 million
people
(out
of
300
million) have health insurance.

cite?




I haven't examined the data here yet. It may or may not
support
your
point,
or whatever HeySlob claims. Have a look, though.

45 million non-elderly insured is too many, regardless.

I agree. Going without insurance is foolish.

How much do you pay for health insurance, and in which state
do
you
live?

Enough. Why do you ask?


Because I want to know. When you come up with an actual number,
we
can
continue.

I came up with a number, let's continue;

How much do you make?
How old are you?
How much do you weigh?
What's your bank account number?
What's your SSN?
What's your mother's maiden name?

The price of your health insurance is in NO way similar to the list
of
information you responded with.

No different; none of your business.

If you believe the price is highly confidential personal
information,

No different.



OK. Then, look back a few message to the one where you said "going
without
insurance is foolish". Without presenting numbers, you cannot comment
on
what other people can afford. If you don't have a group plan available
here
(Rochester NY), and you have to buy your own insurance, guess what it
costs
per month for a single person.

A lot. More good reason to *NOT* let government have control over
any part of health care.

Go ahead. Guess.

I don't get paid to guess. I get paid to know.

Nonsense.

I understand. That's the best argument you've got, nonsense.

So, without having the balls to reveal a number, you know for a fact that
the number is one that ANYONE can afford.

8. There, happy?

Have some fun with this:

NYS is a socialist rat hole, one that has actively chased insurers
out (not just health). I lived in NYS for 20 years. Never again.
&Deity. help you if they pass "universal health care".
