Nanker Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I like the Canada system , but that's just me Then perhaps we should send our needy that don't have health insurance across the border to Canada to get their treatments. That's what the Canuks do to their people who need, e.g., open heart surgery. They ship them over here to get the treatment they need because it ins't available from their own healthcare system.

IDBillzFan Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Should everyone have hospital and catastrophic coverage ? That would be my recommendation, yes. I also think the moment you are married, have children, and/or buy property, you should get a living trust. Oh, and I also think people who drive slowly in the fast lane should get a ticket.

keepthefaith Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Should everyone have a Porsche? Having owned 2 of them I'd recommend it yes, but you'll need a good health insurance policy for the car to cover the maintenance and repairs.

B-Man Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) Those who claim that the Graham-Cassidy bill is being rushed through the legislative process should know that they’re making time Monday night to have a televised debate on CNN between the bill’s namesakes and Sens.

ALF Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 4 charts that explain what Graham-Cassidy will do Big states are, not surprisingly, affected the most. Texas, which rejected Medicaid expansion under Obamacare, would see an increase of $35 billion in federal dollars headed its way. California and New York, two massive states whose governors accepted the Medicaid expansion, would see dips in funding of $78 billion and $45 billion, respectively. http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/22/politics/cassidy-graham-charts/index.html That couldn't be right ?

Nanker Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Kalifornyah, Nueva York, Mass, and Maryland take 40% of the federal dollars dedicated to Medicare. Graham's bill is aimed at evening out the federal spend so it's equally applied to everyone. One person, one vote. One person in any state gets the same share of the federal dollars. Sounds fair - doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds fair - doesn't it? I heard that this morning, and I could only laugh. First time I can remember that Democrats are against "fair" redistribution of wealth to those in need and for states' rights.

TakeYouToTasker Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'd like to see Trump and Obama debate since it's ultimately their bills. What purpose would that serve?

Magox Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Overall funding over the next decade for all the states combined would only have a reduction of about 6-7% from it's current baseline. It really is not a Draconian proposal. But as I said earlier, since there is nothing concrete to look at, because the states have to design these systems, the opponents can paint it any way that they'd like. Which of course if you are against it, that would be the way to do it. It's easier to attack the scary undefined unknown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
