you arent listening. I said fines or taxs breaks. Either way cheaper and more efficient then if the government controlled everything. I'll say fined or heavily taxed if they do not provide ins. All the gov't would be doing is regulating...a division like the FDA, FCC etc...
canada - I pay taxes to the gov't they pay for med bills unless you have cancer or some other serious or rare disease then I go to the US and leach off of them.
my way - i pay taxes, my boss pays taxes, my boss buys insurance, I buy insuance. I make money, my boss makes money, the insurance company makes money. The gov't fines/taxes to compaines that do not provide ins.
the constitution is still in tact. supply and demand tells me that with all of these companies having to buy healthcare the prices will go down and everyone lives happily ever after
