Frank 41 said: (quoted from post at 17:58:53 11/03/13) I think some one is watching TOO MUCH FAUX NEWS. I have gotten screwed by Blue Cross for about the tune of $60,000 over the years. I got diabetes and could not get any other insurance because of that. Now being on Medicare, I have 3 plans and have to see the dr more often. Yet I have a hard time just getting 3 months supply of meds. I guess they think you will soon die and they don't want to waste them.
Like one of the others said, we are one of the few countries that do not provide health care for all. Do other countries have health plans with donut holes in them? I have been self employed most of my life, so I did not get FREE or very low cost insurance.
For all of those that think the pubs have all the right answers, why don't the rest of us have the same health care the politicians have?

I'm sorry for your condition Frank, but it's not up to the rest of us to pay your bills. And for the record, in a lot of those countries you think have "free" healthcare, you'd be just as poor because your' taxes would eat up a lot more of your income, if you even had a job. Many countries have no healthcare coverage at all. In others they'd let you die or offer you euthanasia because you're too big a drain on the system.
Healthcare is not and has never been some sort of "right". It's a responsibility, not a right, and the responsibility rest on the shoulders of the recipient and his family, not on the "collective", that is, your fellow countrymen that pay taxes.
