Government run health is a stupid IDEA..Yes I repeat STUPID IDEA….

Here are my reasons
With government run health care, it becomes necessary for the government to provide health care for all.
which means everyone have to get health care insurance otherwise they will face some kind of fine(People who cant afford health insurance cant afford fail either) or jail or both.
Shadowstats.com says current unemployment stands around 18%. It does not include certain category. 18% is almost like 30 million Americans. When 30 million Americans don’t earn, they cant afford to pay health care for their family as well(which will be roughly 60 million more)
So we are talking about 90 million Americans who cant pay any amount, another 90 million cant pay even half of the cost(POOR PEOPLE, who are daily workers earning less than 50k and their family), another 90 million who cant pay more than what they are paying right now(middle class americans who live paycheck to paycheck). only the rest 30 million will be able to afford for health care at any cost.
Now how are we going to pay for everyone????????
“I find near unanimity of opinion that, whatever its shape, the final legislation that will emerge from Congress will markedly accelerate national health-care spending rather than restrain it.”
“…while the legislation would enhance access to insurance, the trade-off would be an accelerated crisis of health-care costs and perpetuation of the current dysfunctional system—now with many more participants. This will make an eventual solution even more difficult.”
- Jeffrey S. Filer, Dean of Harvard Medical School, WSJ editorial 11/18/09
I don’t think government option is a solution as its impossible.(Hope the congressman/senators realise this sooner than later)
Note: All those numbers are assumptions and calculated approximately according to the data I had, Still I believe those numbers are far more accurate compared to the data provided by our government.
