I guess it comes down to what you think is more important.

Are longer wait times for non critical care acceptable so that everyone has access to medical care?

Or would you prefer shorter times so that only those with the means to pay for care receive it?

Personally my coverage is excellent cuz I can afford it and Kaiser seems pretty great so far, but I'd much prefer a system where I have to deal with more delays and annoyances that are ultimately meaningless but provide coverage for all Americans. Even if that means I have to pay even more taxes.Just how I was raised.

We pay too much in taxes as it is now, I honestly cant afford to have anymore of my pay withheld.

You're in luck because as this plan continues to be implemented insurance costs will go down.

sure they will...

but even if by some miracle they did (they wont) taxes to support them never will

That's the difference.

The 200 dollars (or more) you pay to cover your family is suddenly shared by everyone, which drives prices down. So the tax you pay won't be as exorbitant as the what the insurance companies are raping you for now.

Which is the whole point.

This must be the part where you realized what I said is correct and is actually a phenomenal idea but because a democrat spearheaded it you have to hate it.

quit watching because you cant stand the truth

go back to beating off to your obama doll

No, it's because I do not like think tanks affiliated with ALEC. Perhaps you do not know what PRI is but I do. And i do not like Obama. I have noted voted for either of the two major parties in a long long time. I notice you resort to this lame line of argument when you lack refutation.

The US is actually pretty on-par with other countries as far as tax rate. Some might have higher overall deducted incomes because of other deductions in the form of social security or whatever but tax rates are pretty close to the rest of the world.

I find it interesting though. Not particularly your quote cause I'm not going to attribute the argument to you.

But there seems to be some disconnect in expecting the best from the US in terms of technology, education, social structure, civil services, infrastructure and all those other wonderful things while ALSO EXPECTING to be one of the least taxed nations in the world.

Just an interesting perspective, I suppose.
