That's the kind of choice left when "You like your Doctor/Plan, you can keep them" comes to fruition. It's also hard to afford better plans when the $2500 a year in savings turns into $2500 a year more in premiums... and then you have to pay thousands in deductibles before you can even "use" your insurance.
Oh yeah... the Government Option is a real winner.
Wait... I know... lets go to the VA model where people aren't dying... while on waiting lists... and the administration spends millions on Bonuses, Art Work and Vacations.
Lack of choice? That's from lack of ACTUAL 'free market competition'.
Taking away more choice and removing more competition isn't the way to solve the problem caused by removing choice and competition.
The worst thing you can hear? I'm from the Government and I'm here to help.
- infinite8s 10y agoDo you want a choice of health insurance or a choice of health care? If you actually want choice in health care, then single payer makes the most sense since you can just go to whichever doctor you want (since they will all be part of the single payer system).
- wernercd 10y agoI want the government involved as little as possible. Two things don't happen with the government: Affordable and easy access. "Free" might sound affordable... until you have to pay the taxes that drive "free". And government run anything? Yeah... how about a big ole glass of no. With a double dose of hell no. Look at all the cost overruns, crappy care and red tape surrounding the VA, Medicare, Medicaid...
