I live in a country with universal healthcare - Australia and its great. My friends who live in New Zealand, UK and Norway also think their universal heathcare is great. The there is Canada, Japan, Sweden, Italy, Switzerland, shall I go on? When you are a rich country you should look after your people. It's not free we pay high taxes and it only covers essentials but it insures no one is left untreated. No one is refused treatment because they do not have heath insurance. Research yourself!

they dont have anything to compare it to. of course they will think its great. most people wont complain until they have tried something better. but that will never happen when you have universal healthcare. its a monopoly that will just get worse and worse over time and people will think its great because they dont have anything to compare it to

@texasray5237 2 года назад

I have lived under totally private medical systems (US Indonesia Japan Taiwan) and social medicine (France). There is no comparison. Care is better and cheaper when private, except in the US where health insurance drove the costs up. Insurance companies are like ticks, sucking blood out of the victims. Socialized medicine is like Dracula.

@onlyadot 10 лет назад

that's what the intention of the plan is, what is REALLY happening is that the coverage is very low quality (40 percent co-pays and $10,000 Deductibles) and the premiums are insanely expensive (upwards of 200 dollars a month for a healthy 21 year old) While people who already have coverage are having their plans discontinued and replaced with poor coverage at a high cost. This makes it very unattractive for me to purchase health insurance since I've never been covered, but since I can afford it the government will not front ANY of the bill. I can opt out entirely for 250 dollars a year, which is literally 10 times cheaper than purchasing this horrible, expensive, low-quality insurance. That is my understanding of the ACA as of Jan 2014

@MakeWay4CJ 5 лет назад

The only reason why you would mention losing your health care insurance is if you felt that the ACA (affordable care act) is to blame for that loss; however, anyone who understands how the ACA works knows that ACA doesn’t require that you drop your healthcare insurance if you‘re already insured! So chances are that IF this situation really happened and your insurance coverage really was dropped, then there was another reason for its termination (A decision made by your employer, the healthcare insurance company themselves, etc.). But instead of researching that or acknowledgingvthe real reason, you’ve decided to purposely redirect the blame to the ACA (or as the Republicans like to call it “Obama care“) - probably to support your political views. In other words, you tried “it” but most of us are not stupid enough to fall for it.

@SmokenJs 7 лет назад

The problem from both ends. health insurance in Canada and most of Europe you have long waits, governments are terrible at taking care of any thing in a timely manner. Here in the US the insurance company will pay any thing the hospital will ask, because they get a cut, and we the people pay high premiums. Example a bag of saline cost about 7-8 bucks hospital will charge 100+ and the insurance is like ok then. why? The insurance comp makes a % of the total, they cant work for free. The % of 10 for a bag of saline or 100 is a lot. I have seen setups where the insurance comp and hospital are the same and premiums are much lower, not always. Other setups where the insurance comp actually asks hospitals for bids and will send you to the cheapest place, can be good and bad. A lot of unhappy people and very rich insurance comp's and hospitals in the US, we do have great care, if you can afford it.

Obamacare explained simply...Let me tell ya about Obamacare from someone who is being victimized by it. I was forced to buy insurance on the federal exchange. My monthly premium is $400 and my deductible is $5,500 a year. Its doesn't pay for anything until I reach the deductible! I cannot afford to see my doctor because of the monthly premium. According to the government I can afford insurance so I'm not getting a subsidy. Now the kicker, part of my monthly premium is subsidizing someone else's insurance so they can afford to see their doctor and I'm left out in the cold. Thats not only wrong, its immoral! My only choice as of right now is to cancel my insurance plan so I can afford to see my doctor, a doctor's visit costs $110. I can see my doctor almost 4 times for the cost of ONE monthly premium payment...There is your Obamacare and I'm not the only one in this situation either. Its time for it to be repealed!!!

@rx7here 9 лет назад

seems like you don't understand what an insurance is. If you have insurance the insurance will cover the cost when you visit a doctor.

@oscardelta1257 9 лет назад

rx7here Mine doesn't until I reach the $5,500 deductible...I know this because I've had Obamacare since Jan of this year. I've been paying the doctors visit out of my pocket even though I have insurance...It sucks!

@MisatoK29 9 лет назад

rx7here Seems like it's YOU who doesn't understand insurance. Or Obamacare. Oscar Delta is right about that. Your insurance doesn't cover your doctors visits until you meet a deductible, and ever since Obamacare, those have gotten way out of reach for most people.

@rx7here 9 лет назад

Misato Katsuragi sure i am always open to learn. Why is obamacare the cause for increase of the deductibles? It goes without saying that one should keep those conditions in mind when choosing the insurance plan.

@MisatoK29 9 лет назад

rx7here Forgetting all the trouble with the healtcare.gov website, and that you have to give out all your information and still might not get coverage, I have look at the obamacare plans on that website. the gold, silver, all of them. The deductibles for all the ones I seen that would give me the coverage that was even close to what I had before, would have been at least $7,000 for the cheapest of those plans that I seen. Before my insurance got cancelled, which Obama lied about saying you could keep your insurance if you liked it, and don't tell me he didn't know this would cause a lot of insurance policy cancellations, my deductible was $2,500. Now to get the same coverage, I would have to pay almost three times that before insurance starts covering anything. The whole Affordable Healthcare Act is an oxy-moron! Deductibles are higher, premiums are higher, coverage is less, employers would rather fire you or cut your hours to part time instead of paying the individual mandates. What the hell has been AFFORDABLE about the Affordable Healthcare Act? That's the question Obamacare supporters can never seem to answer me. If you can tell me, you'll be the first.

I am sure what Obama wanted to do was very honorable, but he had America against him. You folks just don't seem to get that health insurance means solidarity. In Belgium everybody that works pays taxes to the government to ensure healthcare for all. Even if you are not sick, you pay. But if you get sick and are sick and your are properly enrolled in the " ziekenkas " you will be properly taken care off in a hospital or a doctors office. Only 10% of our population is not insured. And even then, if you aren"t, in a hospital, with your gut hanging out of your belly, they will help you. If you can't pay, the social system will. Really for a country with so many rich people, you have a very pore grade on humanity.

So explain why should I buy healthcare when I get LESS coverage (higher deductibles and higher coinsurance)? Yes I can get health insurance for as low as $89 a month but the deductibles are around $6,000!!! That's more than 25% of my yearly gross income. Keep in mind that I have to pay THAT first, BEFORE Obamacare kicks in. Ok let's say I sold my car and manage to pay the deductible. There is 20-40% coinsurance. Which means that after I spent $6,000, I'll have to pay 20-40% of what left of the bill. So say I was with my friend and we got ourselves in a severe car wreck and I was severely injured. *1 weeks of intensive care *2-4 weeks of recovery *4-6 months of physical therapy That's alone cost $200,000 to $500,000 in hospital bills - and I have to pay at least 20% of that. That's more than 2 years of of my income!

In the UK, the NHS has its flaws and maybe that's the understatement of the century, but at least we don't have to worry about being able to afford healthcare. Some of us are lucky to have private healthcare, usually through employment. This however only really serves to jump queues. I don't believe an operation done on the NHS or privately is any different and it usually involvs the same specialist, as most surgeons and consultants wortk in both state and private sectors. I feel sorry for Americans who have to contend with their seemingly complex healthcare solutions, in order to manage health conditions, or even simply have children (corerct me if I'm wrong) I don't think state healthcare is about socialism, but I think having it is a positive reflection of one's society. I'm a conservative by the way........ Looking for intelligent comments here, not flames ;)

Even poor countries do have at least one off these and to me healthcare should never come with a price. It is the government's obligation to make sure it's citizens have these services. You don't pay for education so why healthcare.

Friend the american life style is way better than the european, in terms of jobs, entertainment but most importantly LOWER TAXES, AND THE ABILITY OF STARTING A BUSINESS, good luck trying to start a business in socialist europe, in america is really easy, because of more capitalism and less regulation, Yeah it has more debt, but also more population, but it's economy is fife times bigger than any european country, I don't really care about health care, because I PREFER TO PAY FOR MY HEALTH CARE, RATHER THAN A BUROCRAT GIVING ME IT, And both europe and America are bankrupt because of all their socialialist welfare programs, and in this next crisis both are going to collapse

Thank the people that used to have insurance for your new plan. It seems that working hard for company benefits is trumped by sitting around mommy's house playing video games and riding your parents' coattails until you're a 26 year old adult. While you're at the government healthcare site please ask for the secondary childhood package for amazing new coverage on ingrates, moochers and slackers.

You think that only promoting the good things about this will make your opinion stronger, but it just weakens it, because you have nothing to compare the pros to, so you can justify why I SHOULD agree with you. I'm not saying that I like Obamacare, I'm not saying that I'm against it. All I'm saying, is that when you say you're "explaining" something, present all facts, otherwise, you're basically lying to people so they agree with you.

Before ObamaCare, American medical care was free. Insurance, just waived you from malpractice or police involvement, if you sought a non-payer, a foreign service of insurance care for your spouse or family, with services such as AA, Jewish Voice Ministries, the Mustard Seed, or Doctors Without Borders, also the Red Cross or Red Crescent. Thank you, for giving me free insurance, Barack Obama. I wanted the cops out of my family, so I could live in the example of Jesus Christ. In Boston, we call that riding the 'T'. The MBTA, our first municipal service, insured under the Canadian model, for health and transport, our subway system.

@HisLostSheep 10 лет назад

Okay, so why the hell am I forced to pay for health insurance? I don't have a car... so I don't pay for car insurance. And I'm thinking about quitting my job so I can suck on the tits of the America Working class and retire on food stamps, welfare housing, and more... So I wouldn't have to pay for income tax... but I am still forced to pay for health insurance that I don't need or want because I eat healthy and if i get injured I have a savings that will cover most medical costs... should I just give up on eating healthy and go back to those irresistible twinkies and cheddar popcorn? And why the hell are they coming out with this stupid mandate when half the people in this country are living in poverty... I would not be surprised if 25% of Americans were unemployed... including the ~8% that is getting unemployment checks.

@Playitalready 2 года назад

I think women were charged more for USING more coverage and/or for things like maternity care etc. NOT for the exact same coverage. Maternity care should be removed from the required "essential" benefits because it makes men either pay more in premiums or deductibles etc. to offset women not being charged more for it anymore. I mean, heck, boys are STILL charged more than girls for the SAME auto insurance. Obamacare has its pros and cons, and (seemingly) overall did more help than harm, but this video seems to only show its pros not cons.
