The Obama model will fail due to the high cost and the destruction of the American way. We are far more successful as individuals. It is also unconstitutional to have such a program. The government has only 18 powers. Please understand that I am not attacking you, but the lack of micro and macro economics education that you have experienced. Government cannot, and should not, step beyond the the enumerated powers. If you wish to change it, then pass the corrective ammendments. You compare the auto repair scenerio with healthcare. This is absurd to compare as first, the human body is much more ccomplex and can have other issues unseen, initially. Also, if a poor man bring his car in to get it repaired and does not want to pay for it, the repair man can send him away. This is not the case in the hospital. We have to take all in, rich, poor, illeagal aliens. So, you aguement is flawed in many ways. Lastly, name one social program that has been succesful in America or any part of the world. There is a huge difference between granting access to care and granting care. Just aske the Canadian couple with the dying child. Sure we need to help the helpless, but our definition of helpless in America has become a joke. Our definition of poor is a bigger joke. People need to be held accountable for their decisions not the taxpayer. Again, your arguements are flawed. You also write of big versus small government with respecct to healthcare. I have a better answer. No government involvement. Are you to tell me that the government can run our healthcare system and yet fail at running a car company? I realize that you are a socialist and that I am a conservative capitalist. I can only give you advice and this is to read history and find all of the successful socialist governments. After you find not one then read Atlas Shrugged. You must realize that nothing is gained by wealth redistribution. Also, if you dont think we are being taxed enough, then be my guest and send more in. Obamacare will take all you can give, and all that you cannot. God Bless.
