Hey everybody! We're 31st in life expectancy....with the amount of money the health care system spends, You'd think that USA is #1, not #31. The answer: Single payer, universal health insurance and to for-profit hospitals and clinics...

I have come to not believe anything when it comes to numbers being spouted off. Our healthcare needs some help, but not government take over and that is the end they are working for. I want government out of my life. By the Constitution the federal government was suppose to mainly have and control a military for mutual protection of the United States and that was about it. Then it was state law.

Bottom line - whether you prefer a public & national health system or private companies - the bottom line is, no one should be able to deny any health care for any American citizen based on profit margins. That is, the insurance company should not be allowed to deny treatment because it will cut into profits. Do we really want an America where the fee for mooring my yacht prevents you from getting kidney dialysis?
