    per #32

    In my post #32 I expressed the opinion that
    the Health Care industry will implode in
    ten years or fourteen years depending if the
    Health Care bill passes or does not pass.

    What I did not state in my post is what will
    happen after the Health Care (HC) industry
    implodes.

    When the HC industry implodes the U.S.
    government will, with hat in hand, ask the
    Canadians for help. Since they are so nice they
    will help us. It will also would be smart to take the best from the Europeans’ health care plans and add these best parts to the Canadian health care plan.

    When all the work is done we will have our
    single payer health care plan.

    For their help the Canadians will send down
    lots of moose burgers for us to eat-just kidding
    vegans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    In conclusion, we have three possibilities for
    who will run our Health Care industry:

    1, health care insurance companies (run by the
    Repukes)

    2. the government

    3. space aliens (this is for all the anti-Health Care Reform Retards)

    I vote for ‘the government’.

    Check out the Jan 2010 issue of National Geographic. They have a graphic showing health cost against life expectancy. Only two countries shown don’t have universal health care – the US and Mexico. In the US average health cost per person per year 7600USD, in mexico 800 USD a year. In terms of life expectancy they are fairly close.

    The Uk is 2000USD and is in the middle of the group. Switzerland it was around 3000USD. They both do better than US in terms of life expectancy.

    Soooo… better health care, for everybody for dramatically less can be yours.

    I’m in a rather positive mood, taking a very long view, on both the health debate and financial industry reform. The conventional wisdom has really shifted on both issues. Because insurance companies and big banks are politically connected they will be able to fight a worthy delaying action, but it is only a matter of time.

    Too bad Elliot Spitzer had a zipper problem, because he could have really helped move things along.

    Now, as they say in politics, to my esteemed friend Obamaforever. You have obviously mastered no arguments, facts or figures. You can marshal no blistering offense and cannot mount a convincing defense.

    When you see an argument that you disagree with you ought to respond to it with rhetorical strength AND poise.

    What you’ve got right now is without content. There are a bunch of people here who I disagree with completely, but at least I respect their ability to explain(or have) a viewpoint.

    I think you are right. But you should cover more on this topic.
