> I agree, millions of people with no health care is not right. If you work full time you should be able to **afford** to **buy** health insurance. The key there is you have to work, and you have to pay for it. The government should help your employer find ways to allow you to pay for health care for a reasonable rate; through tax incentives, cost cutting measures etc. But the government shouldn’t just give it away.

Well I guess a lot of people will just be out of luck then. Since more and more employers are finding it impossible to have health care plans. With the price of plans going through the roof the number of people paying for plans out of pocket is dwindleing. I know I’v tried. The idea of incentives and cost cutting is not somthing I believe will fix this problem. It would be like handing someone a bandaid for a gunshot wound. The system is too fucked for those plans to work. It might have worked 20 years ago but not now. Our entire health care system needs to be revamped. And if you think the HMO’s will do the revamping think again, because they won’t.

We can make it work, or at least we should try.
