Ted, > Why are you even arguing this subject? Those of you who oppose universal health care are in a minority position.

I don't care if I'm in the majority or the minority. My position remains the same.


Good. Accept that your position has been heard and its not persuasive enough to dissuade the majority.

The only problem that universal health care would solve is the drastic reduction of the uninsured.

.......and the poor showing of our lifespan average and the high cost of medicine in the US among other things.

The current problems with health care will ensure that moving to universal health care right now would make it cost-ineffective. This on top of the skyrocketing cost of Social Security and Medicare.

You have little basis for that argument. It has been shown to you repeatedly that the health care of countries with well managed universal health is cheaper than the health care in the US which has a hodge podge of health care.

In spite of that argument, you still oppose universal health care because you are afraid you will have to pay for it. You seem to forget that stopping one of our wars will probably be enough to make up the increased cost.
