..hey .. I hear what your all saying.. and I should butt out.. but if your sick.. come to Australia.. We will help you - you may not get the top flight medical treatment and endless funds your HMO provides... and our employer DOES NOT PAY for it either.. .. we have the choice.. standard national health care.. OR.. pay some more and get priority treatment and a choice of Doctors.
It works, we have 22 million people.. also living in a democracy.. in a land mass border by sea..as big as the USA.. mineral rich, forced multicultural (which I don't really like..).. but ..hey.. I don't work a second job for my health care insurance.
This may work out well for the 22 million in australia. But with 19 million in New York state alone, and about 350 million in the U.S. I think it would cost us so much more. My family friends and I all have great health care. Most of us get it through our jobs, or they make more than enough to pay for it. I think for the most part this national plan would hurt the working man, and help the ones looking for a hand out.
