Simply put it would be a better system if you can keep the greedy people from putting their sticky fingers in the money. People call it socialist, well look up socialism it may actually have some good points. We could learn a few things from it. Hospitals should not be setup to make money nor should anything connected to the medical fields should be considered a profitable enterprise. If you profit off of other peoples sickness you should be ashamed.

I am not interested in Mr. Obama's Socialised health care. If it's so great, why don't ALL the politicians sign up first?

Politicians don't want it.
Medical Professionals don't want it.
Thinking legal Americans don't want it.

Who is left?

mobley69, I looked it up, and I don't like what I found.

Socialism = a political theory advocating state ownership of industry.

State ownership. Looks like Mr. Obama is bringing back slavery. I don't want to be a slave, thank you.

"If you profit off of other peoples sickness you should be ashamed." But if you work to make them healthy, you should be owned by the government? No thank you.

I don't want a government who cannot even make "Cash for Clunkers" work to handle my healthcare.

No I do NOT support this Obamacare health plan because it will raise our taxes and plunge our country deeper into debt.

Cash for clunkers did work you knuckle head, where are you getting your info? And how is it socialism? Private insurance companies aren't going away. They have more than quadrupled their profit in the last few years, over 400% profir in fact look it up. Do you think the moment the new Health Care reform is passed everyone is just going to drop their insurance and go with the government run program, NO! You have been watching too much Glenn Beck(Mormon).That should tell you something.

Who told you this Nancy Powell? Where do you get your info from? Tell you what, go to some legitimate web sites, listen to some accurate news, not Fox. Then come back and talk.

I think we should take care of ourselves, and if we can't then we should exchange work for welfare.

I'm a taxpayer and an honest healthcare provider and I'd much rather assist someone's medical bills by paying taxes than by the "system" trying to work in other ways.
