        Endless debate.Canada has universal health care. Our wealth is about 9% of USA. Greed degrades a nation. Healthy public= prosperity.

        I won't call you any names. I'm still stunned you find it hard to believe that poor people are up against it when it comes to health care.

        So Kimmel was wrong on more than one count. He said prior to the ACA babies born with pre existing conditions not covered, not true.

        A lot of the reaction to you comments comes from the utter denial that the health care system treats the rich and poor differently.

        Facts: Medical services exist; humans need medical services; Republicans politicized who can get care. Single-payer would fix this.

        High-risk pools have failed across the nation. Pooling sick people together drives costs UP; that's why you want a mix of sick and healthy.

        The debate is much bigger than handling the "cost of these catastrophic events". Including whether health care is a right in America.

        New bill will charge ppl in 50's/early 60's 5 x more for health ins & pre exist into high risk pools. The bill is a disaster for millions

        Also there is a huge gray area on what insurance coverage defines as necessary services for children’s physical or mental health.
