overcharging the sick? what the hell are you talking about, my entire point is that health care is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to expensive in this country, that is where the problem is , and if somebody in my family ends up sick i will pay for it, i dont think it s right to punish everybody else because i have a problem. i am one of those rare people that believe in taking care of my business and my responsibilities , i know its hard for people like you to understand but i am kinda proud that i havent sunken to the level of needing someone elses help with my finances .

Solidarity is no punishment solidarity is an intelligent achievement of society
big pharma is overcharging
You said it yourself that the system makes them do it
Otherwise they are not doing there job
Solidarity of the consumers is the counterweight of that
Congrat that you are able to take care of your finances but let me ashure you I am doing more than fine myself so that's not that great of an achievement
So many people in your country are poor and struggle with there basic needs it's a disgrace for a rich country like yours

i dont disagree, i just dont want someone elses hands in my pockets when they should be manning a shovel or a keyboard somewhere.

If you are middle class in us
You are overcharged in many ways
Compared to the rich
A secure healthcare just lets you concentrate on making your way where ever you choose to go

i also agree, but i think that is a global problem not just a US problem

If we talking healthcare us is way behind in the list of the developed countries

the issue to us is freedom, the gov does not have the right to force you to pay for anything, and i think that most of us here would fight to the end before we would allow our gov to remove anymore of our freedoms
