What makes you think the federal government can provide health care at a lower cost?

health care
Not You asked:


Everything they do turns into a money pit. Wouldnt the usual government waste cancel out any saving from removing profit from health care?

What have you seen the federal government do that gives you enough confidence in them to believe they can efficiently run health care for 300 million people?

      Our current federal government would not be incapable of doing it. However it could be done by a competent government that was not corrupt and controlled by corporate America.

      What lower cost? He’s spending over $600 Billion dollars on it. How the hell does that lower cost?
      What can the government do? Lower wages of health care workers? Lower equipment costs? Lower the price to run a new drug through the FDA gauntlet?

      They plan to use the same tongue depressor to examine both oral and anal cavities of the body and feel one tongue depressor wiped-off can do anywhere between 50-100 different people….that is quite a savings in the long run and should add up fast in real medical equipment savings regarding 3 million people! Any more questions?

      Obama thinks the Nationalizing Health care will help America however in reality the government will get to chose what kind of medicine you will get by how expensive it is, Imagine being able to afford a medicine that might save your life and the government say no you cant have it. Also with nationalizing health care you need something to pay for the “free health care” and that’s where the tax increase comes in and guess what, we will be paying for it.

      Nobody makes a greater mistake than he who does nothing because he could only do a little. Something must be done because so many people are without health care, this situation is unacceptable in the greatest country in the world.
