The last time I had insurance the claims adjusers had Sarah Palin accents and nothing was payable. It was a PPO with $5,000 deductable. You had to use a network doctor. None of the doctors took new patients. The CEO of the company is one of the highest paid in the country. My friends in France go the doctor when they want for a tiny co-pay. The care is excellent.

Are people in your area required to use health insurance companies? I live in Ohio and it's my choice to buy into a health plan. I have one from my employer that covers most things, I pay for the rest. It costs me a couple hundred buck a pay period. I'm not forced into the plan and I know it's a for profit entity like any other corporation...so what's the big deal?

I love people who blame trial lawyers for problems in the medical field. Have you ever done any research into how few med mal cases are successful these days? Very, very few of these cases are even filed anymore, and even fewer are successful. Why? Because state laws make them almost impossible to win. If you want to find someone to blame, blame the malpractice insurance carriers who are charging premiums and deductibles so high doctors can't afford them. It's the insurers who are getting rich.

Hilarious video and oh so true, to quote an earlier commenter. Here's the final verse of my Raging Grannies comment on American medical care [sung to the tune of 16 Tons]: If Canada, Europe and Japan Also Sri Lanka and Thailand Could figure this* out, what's wrong with us Too polite and quiet, we don't make no fuss! *nationalized healthcare

I have worked for a health insurance company and now I work at a physicians office. Pretty neat to see both sides of an issue.

The President and congress have great healthcare. I don't hear any complaints from them and yet I see tons of insurance company assholes telling us we would not like it. Keep it as is. Take your nickel a post crap back to the insurance companies. Change is coming for the better. I would rather stand in line and get healthcare than get none.

The problem is the third party. Whether it is an insurance company or the government, he who pays controls the transaction. Right now, the insurance company controls a lot of transactions, but not under threat of criminal sanctions. If the government controls health care transactions, your care and choice will suck, and it can put you in jail. Don't get why people support a government which screws up pretty much anything it touches in charge of health care.
