There is no free market in US healthcare: there is no insurance competition allowed across state lines, anyone over 65 must be on medicare, etc. Real free market would lower costs and improve product (care) as it does in every other industry.America likes lots of paperwork and a free market that increases wealth, not health.
Defunding Obamacare has claimed a victim.
Norman Orenstein, a scholar at the right-leaning American Enterprise Institute, is the book's other author.
He says Tea Party politicians "want a massive revolution, and if that means upheaval and catastrophe in the short term, and election losses, that is preferable to compromising. They have in part been convinced by their own self-reinforcing wind machine that default would be fine. It is not just suicidal, it is homicidal."
The current Congress has been the least productive in American history. Mann and Orenstein, in their book, say it's time to recognize Republican obstructionism as the cause.
The public though, has so far reacted with irritation and benumbed indifference. People seem to think the threats of government shutdown and default are just histrionics.
Perhaps. But it may not be a good idea to underestimate ideologues bent on glory.
Following the current US model in Canada does suck doesn't it? BC will be healing their system soon with the oodles of money they'll make exporting evil natural gas instead of solar power that will make more storms in Calgary that rotate backwards.B00Mski said:The Canadian Socialized Health Care Sucks!!!
Because of employers are required to pay for employees Health care in BC, Save-On-Foods, Costco and other BIG Corporations hire Part Time employees so they don't have to pay their Health Care and the BC Government requires you to pay for BC Health care if you live there..

Why would you cheer that on further in the US where people are losing their jobs and coverage?
Germany has universal healthcare, Obamacare is based on the Romney Model of increasing the rate of private insurance. The two could not be farther apart. Germany has a single payer (for about 85% of their population) so can negotiate far better prices.

It's a multipayer system
Actually it does both, although private hospitals (for profit) are about 10% or 15% of the entire health system, the rest are government or non-profit.
The don't have to pay into the other system like BC adopted either if nobody is working.
