arguing the merits of the govt health care plan doesn't mean one thinks some should not be entitled to health care. i've interviewed people for jobs where i work, and unfailingly they say oh great when i say they can get health care. then when it comes time to apply for it, they turn it down. they want it, but they don't want to pay their (minute) part of the premium to get it. and then i get to hear how life isn't fair when they have to go to the emergency room.
one lady finally got it a year or so after she started working there-which meant she fell under the pre-existing clauses. a couple years later, and i still have to hear her complain how the ins won't pay for something that she got treated for before getting her coverage.
what worries me about any proposed plan is what happened in hawaii. they passed a plan to cover more kids, so a lot of folks who had coverage for their children cancelled and put them on the state plan, thus bankrupting it.
