Faye, going back to the initial post - it seems that what you quoted and what you cited are two different documents that are completely in contrast to each other.  I'm assuming just an honest mistake on your part. But none the less, the truth is that your claim is completely false.

Tripoli has already pointed this out.  Also note that on page 16  of the bill - it will be illegal for you to carry private insurance.

Having lived with a government health care system in Colombia, I noticed some flaws in an otherwise excellent medical system. Today in the USA, when someone cannot pay for a procedure, they can go to hospital and get emergency care or financial assistance. This may delay the procedure by weeks, or months, but it CAN get done and it is in the patients hands to push on the door.

Guess who gets to decide who lives and who dies? What happens in a tight financial year? Why is it that anyone over the age of 25 is too old to worry about? Nobody hires a 30 year old, too old, too risky, why? Government Health Care! Nothing is in the patients power to correct.

Hmmm, this applies to anyone who gets cancer in the US,........not an emergency for the ER, but if you are too ill to work, you don't have healthcare in the US.......Who decides whether you live or die in the US?
