I was confused about his plan, then I had a thought. I couldn’t understand it because it was mistranslated from the original German, or Russian, or Chinese….

You know, he is smart. He runs around, taking in money and making stupid comments.
I mean, he gets paid for saying foolish things like this, big money is flowing in.
Man, what a racket. Who needs a job?

Edwards is a pseudo environmentalist, yes?

Think of all the trees to be sacrificed for all the paperwork needed to administer his health care plan.

Of course, people in the filing cabinet business would do very well.

What happened in 1994 after Hillary-Care raised it’s ugly head? This is Hillary-Care to the tenth power. It is a looser bigtime and I would love to fight the dems next year on this one alone. The soundbites from him so far on the issue are enough to bury him.

In 1994 you didn’t have nearly the energized 18-29 voters, and not nearly as many of them living at home off of mom and dad, without health care because they won’t “lower” themselves to the abundance of jobs out there. They will vote to be able to sit on their asses the rest of their lives.

In most Canadian provinces, the gov’t healthcare is subsidized to the point of free for low-income earners, but if you “opt-out” by not filing the appropriate paperwork, the gov’t assume you to be in the high-income levels, and so you get no special subsidies (aside from the obvious ones that get you gov’t health-care in the first place) and they charge you full rate, whether you use the facilities (so to speak) or not. You then amass a whopping great bill which will eventually be garnished from your tax-return, even if you left that particular province years ago. (you may have guessed, but I’m speaking from experience)

…I always wanted to get my healt insurance at a library.

aclark on November 27, 2007 at 10:41 AM

Better yet the DMV. Why not – the same people at the DMV will be making your health care decisions for you….

I’m sure hymen repair surgery will get a higher priority then, say, knee surgery. After all you don’t need to work – you can always go on welfare and be dependent on the democrats.

The country is more ready for socialized medicine than they were 14 years ago. The cost of healthcare has gone up by 4X since then. That sh*t hurts, and a lot of people are fed up. No matter that we get the best, most advanced care in the world. But yeah, some of those soundbites are over the top.

We hate it, sure. But it plays well to the Dem base and he will sell it hard to Seniors. My parents eat this crap up. They love this guy. I can see Seniors, young people, and the ill-informed (liberals) eating this up. Look at the polls; Edwards polls better against the Republican candidates than Hillary does.

Where does choosing one’s healthcare provider come into play under this system?

I want to know where they’re going to find any doctors to provide this health care once this “law” passes and every single medical student says, “Ah, #&*$ it.”

You don’t suppose this would lead to, say, overworked and underpaid government-employed “public” doctors for the masses and “private” doctors for the “winners of life’s lottery,” do you?

Turn your head and cough and say “Two Americas.”

How do you tell the difference between a hooker and a candidate?

right2bright on November 27, 2007 at 11:21 AM

A hooker is more honest and doesn’t beg for money.
