Dennis Kucinich and 90 others are sponsoring a health care bill that would cover all of us and eliminate the need to pay for our own health insurance. It would cover medical and dental. Since Dennis likes it, I know it's probably very good and the right thing to do. But for the same reasons, since Dennis likes it and since it is very good and the right thing to do, I don't think our corrupt and "owned" Congress will pass it because they are traitors to the American people. Of course HR 676 might be a piece of crap too. I'm just going on Dennis's reputation.
One big advantage to this system would be that my kids would then have health coverage. They don't presently. America gave them the finger. Congress said they should go fuck themselves. The main thing our politicians deserve is a good whipping. They should all be hung by the neck until dead, like what would have happened had Benedict Arnold been captured.

I know nothing of politics but I just heard on the news that so and so many people in your country can't go to the doctors because of insurance, they can't afford to pay. I do think that is awful. Everyone should have the right to medical care. -

How does it work in your country? I know lots of people in America who have no health coverage and can't afford to go to the doctor or dentist. None of my kids have health coverage. -

Everyone, has heath coverage here. If you get sick and have to go to a hospital, you don't have to pay. It is paid in taxes. It is cheaper here to go to a dentist but can be bad enough for some people.
You pay when you go to the doctor's but it is not so much that one can't afford it. I wish I could tell you more. We have something like a social guarantee system which pays to old people and invalids. Could call it social security.
If we go to other counties in Europe, we can bring a card with us which guarantees that the heath service here will pay if we for some reason get sick or have an accident and have to go to hospital. Wish I could tell you more about this.

Your country takes better care of you than America does for its people. Your politicians are obviously not as corrupt and traitorous as ours are. That is one of the main reasons I have no patience for the American flag wavers who make a religion out of worshipping America. America is run by people who look after themselves and enrich themselves at our expense. America is not that big a deal. Greedy people ripping us off, that pretty well sums up 21st Century America. -

skald, how does your government tax to pay for healthcare? is it a tax on income/wages, or something else?
