re: #275 Targetpractice

The big difference is that both don’t have to keep going to the table to negotiate health benefits, because the universal health care provided by the government already takes care of that. Amazing, huh?

Spot on. What I find really amazing is that we’re the only developed nation without universal healthcare.

Actually I find it disgraceful that the world’s richest nation sees the health of its citizens as a luxury. As if 40 million of our fellow citizens being uninsured isn’t a big deal and has no moral component. After Obamacare gets blocked by the nation’s most conservative court in a century, we’ll be back at square one, another decade or two from real health care reform.
