If he was he would know rich people can’t get private health insurance either when they have a preexisting condition.

Rich people have their treatments rationed through “excluded treatments” by the private health insurance industry too.

Rich people also have their private health insurance company telling their doctor what he can do for them.

Furthermore Rich people who own businesses have to choose to hire only employees that won’t raise their health insurance premiums instead of the best skilled employee.

If less poor people would stop pretending they thinking like the rich we would all be better off.

The National health Care system catalyzed the national causing economic growth with the huge numbers of new doctors and medical personnel being trained and the huge growth of the medical economy.

National Health Care helped lift Britain out of economic collapse.

The time for US National Health Care is NOW partly BECAUSE we are in an economic crisis. National Health Care can be the economic recover engine that causes the high wages jobs and taxable business growth we so desperately need.

Would you rather have an economy based on pushing fraudulent paper on Wall Street or one rebuilt on growth in medical technology and personnel fueled by a large new demand driven expansion of the high tech high job need medical industry?

And medical costs controls actual INCREASE innovation.
In Japan they actual set maximum prices for certain medical procedures such as MRI. this prompted Japanese technology companies to redesign the MRI so it could be made more cheaply to increase profits. The resulting Japanese MRI machines is so much cheaper and more effective than previous MRI machines that the Japanese MRI is now taking over the market in other countries like the United States where it out competes US designed MRI’s which had virtually no cost pressures due to our skewed healthcare system which excludes those who have lower incomes.
Now is the time.

Freedom works, coercion doesn’t.

Right, but why this? Just because it’s a solution, doesn’t mean that it’s a good solution. Everyone thinks that the insurance companies are at fault, so the best they can come up with is to create another insurance company? Even full socialization of health care would be better than adding another insurance company to the market.
