The U.S. spends 13% of our money on Healthcare... Yet, they have little control over our healthcare. There are ove 40M who are uninsured; 17% of Americans. For decades, the Govt has been trying to improve or at least it is so on the outside. How come there is no resolution? Ring winged, left winged; seems to be a problem. House vs Senate, is another. Filibuster and Executive Orders, contribute.

With what we have, we can control costs and ensure every American receives proper healthcare. With this comes disparity in capitalism. Our core nation values can balance any problems the country faces but with anything out there; there is a negative side. The human element is the downfall. Models can project a successful idea but when implemented it usually is not.

We need to look at ourselves and our fellow citizens. We are the problem. Everything that is wrong is because of people. That being said, how can we fix this broke system? Unfortunately, we can not. All the problems we've made; the country will never go below 1Trillion in debt. SSI, MCR, and MK will go broke. We will print money but China will not buy more of American debt. The currunt state of our nation is in limbo. There's very little to be done. We are bleeding and regardless of how much we tamponade; the bleeding will continue.

Drastic changes need to be impement in order for a near pertfect country. How much will be sacrifice? How much will we give up? We all need to beld accountable. We all need to fix the healthcare crisis and our thousands of other crisis. When there is no copays or deductibles for Medicaid; then how can we fix this? When people on public assistance and our streets are dirty; that's a problem. When you receive full financial aide and are not required to pay anything for school or required to pay a % back in a set time; that's a problem. When you can win lawsuits for your own careless actions; there's a problem. NYS has over 16,000 local govts; that's a problem. In NYS, you can refuse to withhold rent and the landlord can not evict you. When a mega rich pays 12% in federal tax; thata problem. The Legislative can lawful trade inside.

I'm just pissed and all of the nations problem could be solved but many will oppose it...

Watch it and you will have a new appreciation of how bad our HC system is. Like all other nations w/ a uniformed HC system. They are having financial times regarding HC. However, they spend a lot less on GDP than the U.S.... But no one goes bankrupt because of medical bills; everyone has health insurance and everyone receives proper healthcare... Socialism medicine we may need but we need to pick and choose the best points of all successful hc systems and disregard the bad ones. You'll see and agree that the U.S. can not because of the one thing that seperates us from them; our ability to be greedier than the next. Our free market and big corporation/weathy tax breaks. Our constant financial pressure on the middle class to pay. The motto of where if you have nothing; you'll get something. If you have it all, you'll pay nothing. But if you have something; you'll pay for it all....
