Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through

I don't usually make this kind of post, but I'm curious and I want to see if anyone responds.
Why is America seemingly so afraid of a nationalised health service?
What is so terrible about everyone being able to receive treatment, regardless of how rich they are?

	PaniAntosha August 16, 2009 08:35 PM PDT I am not at all afraid of it-I voted for Clinton twice and for Obama partly in hopes of getting it done. It will be the insurance companies and some doctors not to mention the drug companies-anyone profiting from the current system who fight it. We need coverage for everyone. I have known many people from Europe who tell me a national health plan works. I know my Scottish penpal didn't panic-with her 4 children yet-when her husband lost a job several years back. An American in that situation is in dire straits w/o money to "cobra" private benefits. Costs a couple of grand a month in many cases. The rich fear higher taxes. I'm all for it. It would give job changing freedom to many to have a healthcare backup at the very least. We will never all learn to get along-not in my lifetime anyway.

Darkness, Darkness, be my pillow, Take my head and let me sleep In the coolness of your shadow, In the silence of your deep In the silence of your deep In the - oh oh yeah In the summer baby come on come on come on baby...
