re: I don't know much about health plans.....my policy is there for when something bad happens to me like a car wreck........but it seems to me you want to pay people to get exams and catch something before it becomes more serious and more costly. But apparently that is not the right kind of thinking when it comes to health coverage.

Single payer health care is the only solution. We're flushing money down the toilet... paying the highest in the world for mediocre care.

It's probably the second biggest domestic disaster after our "energy policy".

It's to be noted that we're the only country in the world where people, on average, visit the doctor less than once per year.

We visit our car mechanics five times a year, why not our doctors? Five might be extreme, but you have many cars over the course of a lifetime, and only one body.
