Somehow... we seem to have a miscommunication.


Right now... as it stands currently, everyone has health care.   Everyone does.   In fact, as a percentage, more than 100% of Americans get health care.  How is that possible?  Because Hospitals are required to treat everyone that comes no matter what, even illegals and foreigners from other countries.


So not only do ALL Americans get treatment whether they have insurance or any ability to pay or not... but ALSO... all the illegals, and even people who fly in from other countries, all get treatment, and then never pay.   I read about 5 years ago, how hospitals on the east coast had a problem with people flying here form Africa, getting treatment and leaving.


So as it stands, more we have a higher number of people getting health care than we have people.   So this idea that 'more people are going to get health care' is a joke.   We are already about 100% of the population getting health care.


Further, we seem to be missing the source of the problem to begin with.  The people who pay for health care, are paying for all the people not paying for health care (or paying for the government programs that don't pay).   So the idea that we are going to add the extra cost of more people to a system that already cost to much because of people not paying....  Do you not see how this theory is going to make the problem worse?
