drunknfaded | Why is it that all americans can not have health insurance? |
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17929063/ I was reading this and thought I should ask this question. I know it's a big money maker with the HMO's. But why is this not being changed? |

Why cant all Americans have a car? Their own house? a swimming pool? Cable Plasma TVs? 3 week vacations?
Being born an American guarantees you life, liberty, and the ability to pursue happiness. No where does it guarantee health coverage or plasma TVs.
As it so happens 77% of all Americans have health coverage. For the remaining 23%, there are options, some not so expensive. However if you cant afford health insurance, then you need to do something about it.
Get a bettwer education to improve your lot in life, and purchase insurance. |

Ours is a true democracy with checks and balances. Politicians take advantage of it in many ways. Adding pet projects to Iraq withdrawal plan, blocking affordable group health insurance rates for small businesses are some examples.
The candidates may promise universal health care to get votes, but do not expect anything to happen.
One solution is for all interest groups and individuals to join together, monitor health insurance bill voting patterns closely and support only the right candidates across party lines. The health insurance issue is a big opportunity if someone can set up a website and work for it. |

ask our government. also ask the lawyers who sue the crap out of doctors & insurance companies, that in turn drive the rates through the roof. making it unaffordable for everyone to have insurance. |

This is a horrible question to ask! It should be "Why is it that all Americans can not afford decent health care?" -- and not "Why is it that all Americans can not have health insurance?"
The question implies that health insurance is a good thing, when in reality, you pay 10 times what the actual care is worth. Insurance is a huge business that has taken over the medical industry. Sure I am an investor, and I understand capitalism, but I still think people's lives should always come before business. |

Not all Americans WANT health insurance.
The numbers in that article are off. Although 25,000,000 people in America (note, NOT Americans) do not have health insurance, HALF of those are here ILLEGALLY. Half of the remainder CHOOSE NOT TO BUY IT. They can afford it, it's just a financial decision to go uninsured.
The truth of the matter is, many people would rather spend $300 a month on cigarettes or booze than health insurance. Even the truly poor people in the US, WHO ARE CITIZENS, can get health insurance for free, via Medicaid. |

the american economy is capitalist not socialist so things fall by the wayside. if you have a decent job your company provides a health plan which by what i have seen is a better system than government controlled health care shorter lines and more attention after the visit. |

Consider that the 23% they say has no health care includes teenagers that work in a fast food joint and their parents have them covered from their work anyways.
My grandparents didn't have health care they paid as they went, you died young but at least you weren't wired up to a dozen machines amid a sterile atmosphere of white gowned strangers. My folks health care was still expensive and the doctor stopped by the house before going home.
My husband works for an HMO so its a given. When you have kids its really vital, after that well do you really want to live to a ripe old age so you can have a room in a convalescent hospital?
p.s. we don't have the tv or afford to go on vacation but somehow we manage ;-) |

All American CAN have health insurance. The problem is that all Americans cannot afford health insurance. But, nobody goes without health care here. It may not be quality care, but you do get care. This goes for illegal immigrants, too. |

I have answered this before. Taxes would have to go up, malpractice insurance would have to come down, bogus lawsuits would have to be thrown out. There is money involved in all of these. Those that live off of it do not want it to change. It will not happen in my lifetime. |
