Public option, option for consumers, the competitive option no matter what you call it that, the government-run option. If health care were not important pre-boomers, like me, the debate – it actually raises and points the finger instead of a civil exchange of ideas – this would be like a joke. But there's nothing to laugh because in the last six months we hammered with an endless stream of platitudes, half-baked concepts and changing of plans, which were not acceptablereal problems.

Way back, when the headlines spoke of the need to reform health care. We were told that 48 million Americans had no coverage, so that the U.S. is the worst of industrialized countries regarding the care of its people. Of course, this figure was greatly exaggerated. Among those who were young, healthy and decided not to purchase insurance, illegal residents, and those jobs with short-term insurance spent between. Thefile number is less than half that sum, but this is still unacceptable.

The main concern is to have children and those with underlying medical conditions covered. However, this can be achieved without tearing the whole system of health care system. Remember, people in countries where universal health care for others often come here for treatment, they have money, because our health system is the best quality Than ITSwhen they get home. As you can:
1) cover all
2) to maintain the quality and
3) do not increase taxes?

The answer is simple, we can not. Pick any two, but you can not all three.

Medicare has already cut more than $ 500 billion target. Proponents argue that this is due to the reduction of waste, fraud and abuse can be reached, but that most elderly, which will reduce performance. Otherwise, why not the government doing something about problemsdiscovered them? Or was it just another political move to take from one group to another, more deserving group?

Forget our representatives that there are about 40 million people aged 65 years, and that aging baby boomers are swelling the numbers in the coming years? We are told that we do not deserve a high-quality health care by physicians of our choice and receive the tests, doctors prescribe these drugs and treatments- Of those paid a portion of additional insurance that you buy? They do not realize we pay our taxes and support system throughout our working lives and then his right to proper health care, as the aging process in this regard?

The idea of states right option to "opt-out of government if we want to do is ridiculous. And 'questions, a governor or a parliament vote on opt-out to see if the residents that, as he is, if is passiveoffered or not. This option is intended to lower prices to compete with private insurers. On the surface this option sounds good, but it is likely to reduce competition, and all will end up paying the price of such insurance through higher taxes respect the choice of government is the only option. And that means no options at all.
