Free Healthcare

Yay! Hilary Clinton and the liberals have a plan to get us free healthcare! This is great! Now we will be just like England and Canada!...I am tired of hearing about this crap. Plus it has been amplified by that fool Michael Moor's new film, 'Sicko'. People see this film that is full of false facts and twisted truths, and suddenly think that is the answer to all the problems we have with our current health care system. When in fact that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Not that our system at present is even close to being what it should be, but this avenue of universal health care is far worse. I read a nice article about this type of healthcare trying to be established in Wisconsin. Needless to say it is not the rosy picture the liberals try to paint it as. First off the “free” healthcare will not be free at all, our taxes will skyrocket in order to pay for it. Second the quality of the health care will quickly decrease due to the lack of competition, drive, and monetary incentive. Just look at Canada, their doctors come to the U.S. all the time to make a living and to have procedures done because they make jack up there. Third it will take forever to get anything done, whether it is a major thing or not. There are countless stories from England and Canada where the patients had to pay to come to the U.S. to get heart surgery or cancer, or any other kind of major operation done. And that is because they have to wait months before they can even be looked at, and after that they must wait months before they can be operated on. Why? Because since it is “free” anyone can go to the hospital for anything they want because they don’t have to worry about paying for it, thus extremely long waits. Last and maybe the most important reason this healthcare plan sucks is because it will be run by the government. The government can do few things right such as the military, and maybe the mail. But beyond that, don’t hold your breath. It is arguably the easiest way for socialism to get a strong foothold in our country. And I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to be a socialistic society, unlike the current socialistic liberals heading the Democratic party.
