Healthcare is a part of our society that is so broken, that we need a collective fix.
And healthcare is too expensive for the working poor to afford. What are they to do? They will still be poor with the government's help with health. There is the rest of their lives America continues to force, incentivize, and encourage them to make better.

see, you are telling a lie that will end up being exposed. that we can have all the healthcare we want, if someone will just step in and end the greed.
When the truth is that the only way to spend less is to consume less. Rationing.
You are repeating the same lie that Obama is telling us.
Innovations and solutions through human enterprise. That's the contract. And govt. control of the private sector breaks it. You will see.
