No it's not So, if I was a US citizen and for some weird reason got shot, I couldn't count on getting professional help unless I had a proper insurance? wrong again Or if my kid got cancer, she wouldn't get help as long as the insurance companies could find a way of avoiding it? Is that how it works? For real? No that's not how it works And what did Obama suggest instead, in plain english? Obama has never used plain English. He is a liar. Always watch what he does, not what he says and what someone said earlier about companies... very true. their goal is to make money. Duh, you finally got one thing right. There is absolutely nothing wrong with making money. Contrary to what you've been told. or, to be more precise, to make the value of their stocks increase. kinda sick system where the long term is not taken into consideration at all. it's not even about tomorrow. it's all about today.What is truly sick is stealing from me and mandating what I must do. You are not the one thinking long term. This bill will destroy this country. It will bankrupt my children, my children's children, and beyond. You are the one thinking short term. You only care that you don't have to pay for your health care.

I realize you are from Sweden and not America, but your thinking is poisonous, and I will not accept it.

Jimbo, you're being a major ass. I asked those questions because I wasn't sure how your system worked and figured you guys might as well tell me instead of me continuing to assume things based on piss-poor TV shows.

I have pretty much the same opinion on your system as you do on ours.

Well I thought you were being a major ass yourself. It came across that way as I read it. If that was not your intent, then I apoligize. I really don't think I was being an ass though. I answered the questions, and I never called you any names. I told you the truth, and you don't like it. I still stand on my comment that your train of thought is poisonous to a society. There just simply is not enough money. Taking away personal accountabilty, and responsibility only destroys a man. If those like want "free" health care, then you can pay for it with your own money, and leave me out of it.
