The way I see it we already have universal healthcare. I don't have insurance at the time, yet I've never been denied any healthcare I've asked for. As stated earlier, the insured pick up the tab for the uninsured, how is that any different than a universal system, the haves are still covering the have-nots. So the permiums of the insured are expected to rise by an average of $922 this year - I wonder how much taxes would rise for the average person if we implemented a universal system.
I'm with irate on this one - esp the parts on entitlement and luxury. Like ustwo said, this topics been covered to death here.
if you want universal healthcare, vote hillary in 08. Its your best shot.
