Let's start with whatever amount, as a nation, we spend on healthcare.. Now, if we SUBTRACT whatever amount the health insurance industry takes, and APPLY it to actual medicine, I suggest we can cover EVERYBODY for EVERYTHING and have money left over for an aircraft carrier or two. Easy peasy. Yes, I feel bad about those insurance workers.. I also felt bad about all those cotton gin workers.excon  less

If we STOPPED denying services, there's NOTHING for an insurance company to do.  If the government will cover EVERYTHING, why would I hire an insurance company who ISN'T going to cover everything???  I wouldn't, of course.  Nobody would..  SO, since we won't need insurance companies any more, ALL that money we've been paying them can now go for health care... Oh, the mechanism will be through taxes, but it should be an even tradeoff..  In other words, what you'll SAVE in health care costs, you'll PAY in taxes..  An EVEN swap.excon  less

That number is difficult to ascertain, but it IS a real number.  The health care insurance industry's take is equally difficult to ascertain, but it's a REAL number too..  I PROMISE you when you subtract one from the other, there's a pile of cash left over..And, I heartedly agree with you..  However, my plan isn't about how EASY it'll be to make it happen.  It's about what we CAN do IF we have the will to do it.. Like anything worthwhile, it'll be HARD..  But, we don't endeavor to do things because it's EASY. If you want the government OUT of your health care, THIS plan does that.. Here's how it works on the ground.. You feel ill. You go to your doctor. Your doctor treats you. He sends a bill to Medicare. Medicare pays it. Easy peasy. Truly, it's EASY PEASY... The government gets a bill, and they PAY IT. NOTHING MORE. A couple hundred computer operators could handle it. Look.. If you wanna lament the total ...    less

The health insurance industry is obsolete. Its purpose is to collect money, deny claims, and write checks.. But, if we covered EVERYTHING, there'd be NOTHING to deny, and Medicare already writes checks.. Here's how the math works.. It's simple, really. Let's start with whatever amount, as a nation, we spend on healthcare.. Now, if we SUBTRACT whatever amount the health insurance industry takes, and APPLY it to actual medicine, I suggest we can cover EVERYBODY for EVERYTHING and have money left over for an aircraft carrier or two. Easy peasy. Yes, I feel bad about those insurance workers.. I also felt bad about all those cotton gin workers.excon  less
