Yes i knew about this. I wasn't talking about emergency , but more about those problems that show up in time in a human body. You get older you start too feel sick often and i guess you know why.
What happens when u have problems with stomach ? or your feel a pain in the knee or ankle ? u go to emergency and they will tell u that is not a case of emergency because is not broken . They will suggest u go to a doctor and start a treatment. Now if u cant afford health care u will mostly go home and carry on with your usual life, carry on the pain. Few years later u will go again to emergency because of the pain, but this time they will tell u that they can't do much about it because you didn't perform any treatments .
Now get this example and apply to that guy gov. health care . That person will at least know what to do.
I am not saying that gov. health care will solve all the problems that you have with doctors and lawyers etc. But at least is a chance for the poor dude that can't afford to even apply the cheapest treatment to his knee or ankle.
Related to the fact that USA has the best doctors . Of course you do, you where and still are the leading market of the world. You know what some U.S politician use to say few decades ago , about us dollar , when he was addressing to the rest of the world ? : "US Dollar is our money, and UR problem !" . That is still true because US is the biggest market in the world for now. But that spot will be soon taken by EU.
Things are extremly simple. Is 21 century .
I could understand this if it was about a 3rd world country. But U.S is the world leader. Hoewever i wont let myself lead by guys who refuse to help the rotten fellow next to him, when he can do it and has the tools and the resources to help him ! That is just cruelty ! I am starting to belive that U.S has better health care for dogs and pets then it has for poor humans.
