skeptic, show us the data of how many Canadians buy private healthcare and how much they pay?

Huckabee, lets have some proof of your absurd claim.

The only reasons democrats are pushing free everything like healthcare, welfare, free schooling , open borders, get rid of ICE, is so they can get the immigrants vote, drivers license for illegals, so they can register to vote.

And a large number of Canadians buy private insurance.

I'll let you in on the details through PM because I'll be thorough.

Is $1000 high? How much do you pay? I know a lot of people that work for companies and pay less then we do. You might want to look into something different.

So you must be part of a large group, but I'd still bet dollars to donuts you have a high deductible and/or pay a co-insurance amount even after the deductible is met.

Employer plan.

Healthcare will never be affordable as long as there are lawyers getting rich suing doctors for ridiculous amounts of money. Also, doctors have to have unnecessary medical tests done on patients to try to avoid those lawsuits. And you have institutions like Wake Forest Health that charge patients twice for one test or xray.

So....you paying only 600$ a month it's either crappy insurance or you're using the marketplace.

No I'm not, for a child to have quality insurance it's at least 300 a month. And for a 30 year old to have quality insurance its around at least 500 a month for a 30 year old.

I imagine you have a very high deductible then.

skeptic

Wrong on both accounts.

If you're only paying 600$ a month for a family, you've either already got government subsidized healthcare, or very bad healthcare coverage.

If I can pay $600 a month for my family to have insurance and get to go to the doctor when I need to. Then why would I pay more and have to wait a year for an MRI?

collect another 1.6 trillion? that's a lot of taxes

Especially when we are already running a deficit. People tend to forget this.

You've also got to realise a huge chunk on the economy would just disappear and further destroy anyway to fund it.
Allllll those jobs in insurance would be gone, and people out of work.

How would you know? Have you ever experienced it? There can be a billion different types of government healthcare. Besides we are talking about government healthcare insurance. Actually healthcare would not change.

omg-wtf

Government healthcare does not work. Just ask these folks. https://www.huffingtonpost...._23344710/

So? you do know that money will be off set by the money you save from not purchasing private healthcare? Over all, you would save money.
