I write up every reply, individually. A link isn't well received and won't be used, unless it's corroborating the posted text of your reply.
to fit my likes:
1) my medical history stays OUTSIDE any federal databases.
2) the national plan is for everyone. No exemptions, no tax credits, refunds, etc.No unions or corporations get a pass to stay outside the system, etc. If they want more medical coverage than the national plan offers, they can buy it, of course, but EVERYONE is in the national plan if they are a citizen.
Non-citizens are not in the plan, and can't join the plan. They don't get free medical care on our dime, as is currently the case.
Without a broad base of healthy people, any medical insurance system will go broke, or have to charge exorbitant prices, before long.
3) no "send Grandma home with a pain pill instead of a treatment". "Grandma" gets the same good treatment as the rest of us, if she's in the plan.
4) we pay the same prices as Canada, and the rest of the world, for our drugs. Having us forced to pay 2 to 5 x as much, is a travesty.
5) no changes can be made to the national plan, without a 45 day period of consideration, AFTER the bill is proposed, IN FULL.
No more of this "we'll find out what's in the bill, after we pass it".
I'm quite familiar with the VA hospitals. Their policies nearly killed my dad.
