My buddies and I always wondered why Obama has been vilified for trying to modernize the way the US handles healthcare. In NZ, it is majority govt subsidised, free up to a certain age and most prescription items cost $5. In other Euro countries, there are similiar policies and some are even better.
I've never understood why some people are so anti a system that was created to help. But again I dont live there.
Someone enlighten me
There is a big difference between the populations of those Norwegian countries and America where is 300+ million people with unprotected borders, things are a bit more complicated. Id like to see what happens (honestly I wish for prosperity in Norwegian countries for life) what happens when the money is gone. They have VERY high taxes too, I wouldn't dare live there. Also, Im not sure what the political situation in the other side of the world is, but the US government is owned by the corporations and banks, Obama is owned by the corporation and banks, they are mostly corrupt especially Obama has proven to be so, Obama aka Mr. I promise not to take a single dollar from lobby money in '08 lying filthy human being he is.
Some of us prefer to live in a free nation where you go to work and you keep what you made instead of having a hardcore brutal tax system that also forces you to buy services such as insurance without an option, without a choice enforced by armed IRS.
Obamacare has been a disaster, costs are going through the roof, my insurance went up from the beginning, many poor people are punished for not being able to afford insurance through IRS fines and poor people who can barely afford insurance cant afford the co-pays and now they have less money to pay for it as before you can just go to the doctor and at least pay for checkups in cash. Now the co-pays dont even cover the doctor fee. I can go on and on. Socialism destroyed innovation and power of the individual. This country prospered by having free market capitalism system, but our innovation and advancements have diminished as government infiltrates all of our daily lives.
Anyways I can understand why people want government to do "good deeds." Some of us dont believe the two mix especially when you see all these good deeds are created by the people who finance the politicians including Obama and Boehner in the the end of the day its about money not about people.
Remember, USA is the country where they let our troops die in hospital basements and closets in order to cut cash. So NO way in hell I support Obamacare or anything that gives power and control to them and takes it away from us.
Freedom > illusion of government security
Lets say Obamacare was good and it works which it doesnt, I dont want anything from that genocidal mass murdering blood thirsty pro war military industrial complex dictator anyways.
end rant, that was fun lol
