This can really enhance the medical services. Nice decision by the president.

Both types are abused. Here in Canada, doctors overcharge the system, and insurance companies are milking it. So whatever solution Obama or his successor comes up with, it will be prone to abuses. The questions is which system is less prone to abuses. It does not matter if your health care system is private or government sponsored.

Obama instructed his Democratic stooges to get his bill through, no matter what. Unfortunately, that's what they did. Even fellow Democrats cringed at what went on with the "bribery" to get sufficient votes, and it made me feel so disgusted with our system, well not the system, but the pompus asses we put in office. I for one am just as guilty, and have changed my party affiliation. This new health plan is going to hurt seniors who have worked their behinds off, and now when they need help, some government buffoon will decide if they should receive a certain treatment. I could go on and write a book here, but no one would want to read it. my 2c. I made my voice heard many times during the “alleged health care debate” and it fell on deaf ears.

There is an imediate need for action from the government. The fact they are considering making health insurance mandatory is great although there will be some implications around this. Hopefully Obama will take the necessary steps and take care of this issue because it is impacting a lot of people. The situation with health care is indeed very messy.

By pooling individuals into cooperatives, families will be able to effectively extend the COBRA benefits they have with group coverage into the future, making health care much more affordable for all.
