Where I am up here in Alberta Canuck land, we don't pay anything. No
premium payment. Our system is not perfect but everyone is taken care
of. I understand U.S. spends more than us per capita on health care.
And many are left out? That is something I don't understand.
To me health care is service for the public, not profit generating
business.
You pay. It is just that your premium is hidden in the taxes.

In the US, the cost is "hidden" in everything purchased or paid for in tax
dollars. Wonder what would happen to small business if Workers Comp
suddenly disappeared, and just plain one-for-all universal coverage
replaced it? Is it possible highly profitable businesses, small or large,
would pay more than those less profitable? No more ambulance chasers or
insurance adjustors....ohmygosh, watch out for the horrible "bureaucrats"
from the gov.; they might shoot you rather than video-tape you, with your
bad back, up on the roof throwing bundles of shingles around )

Workers Comp. would be FINE if they would eliminate the fraud and fake
lawsuites...Strange how many that get kicked off welfare due to time limits
, marriage , kids over 18 , ect. end up on Workers Comp then SSI
Disability..It is a scam run right out in the open here in the Liberal State
of Maine.....The Republicans TRIED to ammend the healthcare bill with Tort
Reform....The Dems wouldn't allow it...We will STILL have the ambulance
chasers like John Edwards running around and suing for fake injuries....You
mean "bureaucrats" like the ones who CAN'T even run the Cash for Clunkers
Program or any other Government Program for that matter...See the SS adm. or
the VA...God help us....
