IMO, if we're going to pay for healthcare for the masses, that healthcare is going to be a basic level, and people can pay more for premium healthcare. That base level can be decent, but has to be below the current ACA plans. But, the starting point has to be reducing costs. It's unsustainable in any format at the current cost basis.HokieHam wrote:Nope.

The question becomes, "how much health care coverage do we require insurance to provide (or else how much health care that hospitals provide) for those who cannot afford the best?" It ultimately comes down to, "Is someone's life worth less if they make less?"
Bill Gates can buy better healthcare than I can. Big deal. I have relatives who have paid into Medicaid since it's inception. And yet, they get the same level of service that a crack/meth whore with 3 kids and no job. That is fundamentally unfair to people who did pay into the system.
