>Why do you insist on saying this when the body of evidence disagrees strongly with the statement?

There is no such "body of evidence" - the fact is that anyone who needs health care in this country can get it. The complaint is that they are being asked to pay for it after they receive it.


And you don't see that as a problem even as it is. What is causing your confusion?

>If you are not getting health care, then the system stinks.

Those who are not getting it are not getting it because they aren't trying. As previously stated, county hospitals turn no one away if they NEED health care. And every county has other facilities as well.


That is not true. Many hospitals.....even public ones.....will turn people away if they can't show evidence they can pay.

You simply don't know what you're talking about. I work with physician offices daily who see patients who haven't paid a nickel in years.

My cousin is a doctor. His practice would not allow that to happen.
