Way to go US government way to force healthcare on the nation. Force us to pay for it and have it even if we donâ€™t want it… doesnâ€™t sound like the America I learned about growing up in school, but hey, while youâ€™re at it, might as well limit the amount of kids we can have and tell us how old we can live to be.

Fidel Castro may not be a hero for western countries but he did a good job in providing subsidized medical care in Cuba-`”

What I still did not figure out about the President’s plan is this segment about pre-existing conditions… Is there any stuff in this bill about if there is a limit on what insurance companies can demand if you have a pre-existing illness?

You are publishing this in the hope that people will think the Obama administration health care plan has something to do with Communism. Which is bunkum!

However the article does ask a quite good question just why has it taken the US so long to have something so fundamental as universal basic Health Care coverage.

Just why does the United states that spends over 14% of its GDP on health care (most western countries spend under 10%) have a health care system that for a large percentage of of its working poor and lower middle classes who canâ€™t afford proper coverage (over 50% of the US population) is either non existant or so substandard.

You are right to be worried that Castro who by the way built the best health care service in latin america is praising the President, but not for the reason you imply that somehow his plans are â€œcommunist inspiredâ€ but for the fact that even a man who has lets face it has no love for the US understands that the US who for years has been shamed world wide for not caring a fig about the health of its working poor and only gives decent health care to a small elite is now moving on and joining the civilised world.

I guess you think all Americans must be stupid and would fall for this sort of base propaganda – I don’t think you are right – polls show despite this huge campaign being run by “big medicine” that 80% of American’s want all their felow citizens to have basic health care.
