<<<more people die each year that have health insurance.>>> That is a possibility but Doctors and people who work in hospitals are human. They make mistakes. I think we all share similar objectives. We all want our health care system to be more efficient and more effective, but there is a fundamental philosophical difference. For those of us who support Obama, we do not think that insurance companies should deny coverage to people with pre-existing or any other condition. We think that health care should be accessible (not the cadillac model - maybe just a shared bus) to everyone but not only through the ER. The disparity between those that can afford a Cadillac, Rolls Royce, or Testarossa health care option and those that have to be taken to the ER is morally problematic. Our health care system has to be fixed. The solution exsts. We can go to the moon. We can go to mars. We can fix health care.
