If people were required to pay their own medical bills, they wouldn’t have to worry about the health insurance companies or A GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRAT being involved in their medical decisions. That would be between them and their doctor.

The whole point of insurance is to spread the risk. Are you proposing that all insurance should be outlawed, as in no health insurance, no fire insurance, no car insurance, and so on? Let the poor die, if they can’t pay for the medical bills, let people lose their home and possessions, if their house catches fire, let people go bankrupt if they have an accident? And of course this extended to companies as well, any company that gets sued, let them go bankrupt, or if a doctor gets sued, let him go bankrupt and stop practicing?

Let’s just go back to the stone age, where we have nothing — those would be the consequences of what you are proposing.

You are trying to change the debate — it’s about whether the GOVERNMENT should be in charge of our health and life.

My son was without medical or dental insurance since May 26. He is 25 and healthy. He went to Denist and I paid $136 for it, much cheaper than it would have been if I had paid for health insurance for him for three months. That would have been about 500 dollars. It was cheaper to pay cash for that one dental appointment. Obama Care will jack up the prices. And does it even cover dental or vision? Those can be expensive. I think it will be expensive to have oBAMA care and it won’t cover anything more than a broken arm. And I have never broken a bone and I am 58.
