Here's what government insurance will mean:
Rationed health care, some bureaucratic committee will decide which benefits you get and which benefits you are not provided. You do not have a say.
All private health care plans must adhere to regulations initiated by this "health care committee."
If you are eligible for medicaid, you will automatically enrolled, you have no say.
No company can sue the government for prive-fixing. Private companies get screwed.
Doctor's wages will be set. There is obviously a difference between the time, effort, and money between a general practitioner and a neurosurgeon, but their income will not reflect this as much as it should.
An employer must enroll it's employees into the government health care system.
If as an employer you pay X amount of money in income to your employees, you will automatically pay Y% for their health care. *Next Tier Up* If you have even more employees and you pay A amount, which is greater than X, than you will pay B% towards their insurance. What's to stop these corporations from getting rid of some people to move down and therefore pay less? Unemployment is going to be insane.
If the government is so set on getting more people health care, why couldn't they have subsidized companies to provide a greater number of people with health insurance. Also, subsidize companies if they hire X% more people. You get more people health care and create more jobs. They are already set on spending billions/trillions of dollars, so why not do something that is guaranteed to work?
The problem with Health Insurance is the malpractice suits that inevitable follow. This reform will not fix the problem, but will just create more.
