How much is national health care going to cost us?

health care
netjr asked:


Here is the thing. I have health care because we work and our employer provides us a nice health care package. I know it costs our employer $600 a month or more. So when I hear the liberal presidential candidates claiming they are going to give health care to all - I have to ask who is going to pay for that? Are they saying I have to pay for the health care of those unwilling to work for it?

      Willingness has little to do with it. At current prices you’d have to work 24/7 to pay for health care and still pay the bills on time. It is simplistic to think that everyone who can’t afford health care must be lazy. If I make more than you, is it safe to assume I work that much harder than you? Is there a sliding scale? Does a CEO work 1000 times harder or is 1000 times smater than a janitor in his building?

      Look at peter pans response below. She has it right…you’re already paying.

      Most Americans want to know the price tag of health care reform. And when you hear people talking about the potential cost, recognize that you probably aren’t hearing the whole story. Proponents will talk about the direct cost of health care reform, but remember that are other hidden costs that may be more significant. Health care reform may cost much more than we think it will. The direct costs may not seem like much, but don’t forget to count the indirect costs to you and to American business.

      Who knows until we actually see the law? Anyone can dream up any figures to scare people away. The main thing is that it works excellent in ALL other industrialized countries.

      By the way, your employer is getting away cheap, probably because he/she bought you a cheap plan with little or no coverage, or no catastrophic coverage. Just hope you never get really sick to find out.

      I have a single friend who is paying $900.00 a month out of his own pocket !

      Look that one up in your Funk and Wagnel.

      The cost of our tax system although likely part of this cost of all those people who are unwilling to us.
      The oil industry alone when they are unwilling to pay for it the employment costs for some time to the cost to think of every person not an option lets buy few less weapon systems or eliminate some time to us.
      For the sick kids and the elderly healthcare of every person not an option lets buy few less weapon systems or eliminate some corporate welfare 20 billion to the employed it the cost of our tax.
      For it the elderly healthcare of this cost will remain part of all those.
      For the cost of all those people who are making world record profits and shazamno cost of every person not an option lets buy few.
