Here's the difference between privatized insured health care and government. Profit.

Private insurance companies are in it for pure profit and don't give me any altruistic crapola because we know this is so. So patients, instead of living beings become "bottom lines". If you don't believe me, talk to any MD who deals with private insurance adjusters and claims handlers.

The government (us) isn't in healthcare for profit. Sure, both systems are problematic, but thanks to the failed trickle-down-devil-may-care systems, we will be forced to tend to the crises in a socialized way.

And speaking of socialism. I've given you clones quite a few opportunities recently to join in my bemoaning of the recent bank/insurance co. socialist bailout. Haven't heard hardly a whimper about it.

Apparently those socialist programs that benefit the already super-rich aren't as "evil" as the ones that bail out the working poor eh?

[QUOTE="Sihouette, post: 69601, member: 1186"] Here's the difference between privatized insured health care and government. Profit. Private insurance companies are in it for pure profit and don't give me any altruistic crapola because we know this is so. So patients, instead of living beings become "bottom lines". If you don't believe me, talk to any MD who deals with private insurance adjusters and claims handlers. The government (us) isn't in healthcare for profit. Sure, both systems are problematic, but thanks to the failed trickle-down-devil-may-care systems, we will be forced to tend to the crises in a socialized way. And speaking of socialism. I've given you clones quite a few opportunities recently to join in my bemoaning of the recent bank/insurance co. socialist bailout. Haven't heard hardly a whimper about it. Apparently those socialist programs that benefit the already super-rich aren't as "evil" as the ones that bail out the working poor eh?;) [/QUOTE]
