I've posted this before, but given your statement, it bears repeating: Here are the major problems with any health care plan. 1. The outrageous profiteering of the insurance industry. 2. The outrageous profiteering of the health care industry 3. The lobbying of congress by said industries to make sure their profit machine does not go away. 4. The level of fraud infesting both industries when dealing with the consumer and with government programs. 5. Any proposed program would create a bureaucracy that would cost more than the health care costs Until you fix those, any universal health care program will fail. In fact, if those problems aren't addressed soon, the existing health care system is going to collapse under its own weight. I've spent most of my 30 plus year career writing software and doing management consulting in the insurance and health care industries. Both of them are rotten to the core. Throwing more money at the problem is never going to fix it. It will just fatten the sharks. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:262971 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
