It is not working in Canada, and will not work here. The government has bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, and now want to bankrupt healthcare.<BR/><BR/>What is needed is a blend of private and government healthcare with hopefully the elimination of insurance for basic healthcare. The government healthcare system can offer income based charges, should not take any insurance, and be prevented from frivilous lawsuits. No lawsuits should be allowed for anything beyond actual costs unless it can be proven that it was a deliberate act by the doctor.<BR/><BR/>The poor and needy will then have access to low cost health care, the wealthy can go to their private doctors.<BR/><BR/>Neeraj Nigam<BR/>Independent Candidate for US Congress<BR/>www.nigamforcongress.org<BR/>nnigam@nigamforcongress.orgAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09070613005536498137noreply@blogger.com
