Poll: Doctors Among Public Option's Biggest Fans

here it is for me, and im sure i'll hurt some feelings or even be banned. hell yes i wish every child in the us had good insurance, yes i wont the older retiries that have busted their asses for all these yrs just to have their retirement washed away with the economy to have good insurance too. and insurance for all the good folks in between that even though they work 2 jobs but just cant seem to get it done. i myself wouldnt mind paying alittle extra for that and i sure the majority of the nation wouldnt as well. but what really chaps my arse is all the lazy jerry springer watching bums i see every ******* day that continue to suckle any handout the govt will give them..its the billions upon billions that the us will spend on that worthless lot that ****** the average person off. and dont sit there and tell me that they wont give free care to illiegal aliens, cuase i know they will, the vote factor is just to great. i just cant stand paying for dead wt...you dont contribute to the country except for making babies and drink colt 45, no insurance.

Interesting theory you have here for insurance reform. The main problem with your suggestion is it brings us back to square one. First- How many people can pay $150 office visit, $100 lab fee and not to mention any scripts that the doctor orders all at one time? What about a family of four? Thats why cost sharing was brought about at the same time. The main way your suggestion can work is for doctors to charge less-and as we see from the huge outcry of government run insurance-people don't like to be told what to do. How can you tell a doctor to charge less so the average person can affort this... Thats like asking a healthcare professional to give up their Mercedes back to that college Buick because the American people want reform. Get it. So its back to the same square of telling people what to do. In a perfect world, sure we could all afford primary care out of pocket, but thats a real reach, I must say!
