Do you like:
Going to the DMV?
Visiting the post office?
Calling the IRS customer service line?
Dialing any government office?
Going through airport security?
If the answer is a clear NO, why do you want the government to run your healthcare?

Say what you like... people in the UK are not turned away from hospitals simply because they can't pay up front. You mistake a poorly run national health service from one that is fit for purpose. Private health is not the answer. If we paid what the US pays our service would glow

I'm in Aust. The idea that someone would be turned away because they can't pay is abhorrent and very inhumane. It really isn't right. America needs to sort this. Maybe socialist healthcare systems work, while socialist govt very bad.

How about the fact that it's stupid expensive? Or the US health care system would mirror that of the V.A. ironically enough, the V.A is looking to expand to allow outside doctors help with vets for medical care. It'll only get worse if we allow the government to control it.

As much as I hate big government. We have excellent healthcare in Australia. Majoeity of it free. As we earn higher incomes people choose to pay. I don't know what the answer for US is, it's so different, but Bernie has a point. Perhaps balance.

EVERYTHING! First they determine how long we’d live by how soon we “deserve” to be seen based on our Age & Med condition. At age 60 a diabetic could wait up to 1 year to be seen, in contrast ages 20 or 30, less wait due longevity. Who wants Govt making these decisions for US?

Not true. In Aust old people are given priority, and extra coverage for glasses, screening etc as they are vulnerable. Same as children. How is it that Americans can turn people away from an emergency department due to $$?
