why does the federal government need to come up with a plan for the uninsured? it's established that many of the uninsured can afford health insurance and choose not to purchase it, many are illegal aliens, the actual numbers of involentary uninsure is quite small in comparison to those currently insured and happy with the current system, it has also been well established that this entire debacle/plan is nothing more than a trojan horse sent to put the entire health care system under the control of the federal government, many of the uninsured can be covered by relaxing all of the mandates state to state including allowing high deductible major medical policies which many states restrict or do not allow, I've had one for years...tort reform and loser pay as they have in England...emphasis on individual policies rather than large brokered deals...I refuse to accept the premise that healthcare is broken and the insurance companies are just greedy bastards which is the curent montra from the supporters....this is about creating a massive government entity and with it a direct revenue stream to fund bigger government...you can argue about and study the details
but in the end this is simply a question of whether you want more government involvement in your day to day life and to a much larger extent, your children's lives as they will bear the burden of all of this, more government intrusion into your personal life and the decisions that you make and the government demanding more and more from you to pay for all of their intrusion into your life...
