This is what I think about healthcare. Who would be best to vote for based on this?

[mbs12]

I am 100% against UNIVERSAL healthcare. But I would be willing to pay taxes to help people who are in dire situations out of the person's control such as, their newborn can't live without a few surgeries, or they are in critical condition after surviving a fire, they were injured in an accident that wasn't their fault, etc. But I would NOT be willing to pay taxes to take care of people who have problems because they're fat, they smoke, they drink, or they otherwise don't take care of themselves and are predisposed to health problems. I also wouldn't be willing to pay for a random person whose stomach just hurts and feels like going to the doctor. I also wouldn't be willing to pay for people who can afford to pay for healthcare anyway. I think there should be some kind of system to evaluate whether a person should get financial aid for their health needs and how much, and full "free" healthcare should not be available to absolutely anybody.Also when people use the example of other countries with healthcare whose citizens "love it", do they ever wonder how it would work in a particular country called the US? Hello...it is a WHOLE LOT BIGGER, think of how you're supposed to pay for EVERY SINGLE citizen without running into huge problems...

If you want universal health care then Barack Obama is the canidate you need to vote for in November.OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dawg548050]

Under your plan 75% of Americans would not have any healthcare!

[JoanL0536]

Well that to bad. Unversal health care will be here some day. I don't care what you want your not running for President.

McCain! do you want to pay for some drug addict who was shot by the police?

When poor people are asked to die in a war it is called an honor. When rich people are asked to pay taxes it is called a burden

Sorry, I am for universal healthcare. But healthcare isn't the main reason that I vote for Obama. It's mainly because of prochoice, removing soldiers out of Iraq, and getting rid of a 3rd Bush term.democrats '08

[maddogmalone4086]

I agree with you 100%. Don't vote for Obama then, he is in favor of universal healthcare.The Democrats want to cover illegal aliens who never contribute a dime to our system so if they get sick they will get full healthcare coverage courtesy of uncle sam. How stupid is that???SCREW EM!! Let them all earn an honest living and pay taxes into the system BEFORE they collect any benefits from it.

You realize that every working person pays a health care premium for the so called 'universal health care", except those in higher income brackets, who's employers pay their premiums for them.Besides why have universal health care when the objective should be accessible and affordable health care for everyone.Making a lousy health care system 'universal" won't solve the problem.

McCain has created a proposal and has a plan to restrict high rates on Insurance companies allowing affordable insurance. He is against Universal Healthcare, as am I. With an affordable healthcare plan, we should all be able to provide for our families.Our tax money should NOT support some lazy trash who is not willing to work for insurance and complains about their children who are sick. Yes, the children are sick, but it is the PARENT's responsibility to care for their child!!!
