Do you want a candidate who supports a national health care program?

[Mich Otter]

Is a national health care program something that would get you to support a candidate?

1. Duh??? a yeah.

[aquart]

2. I want a Congress that supports it.

3. That would be nice.

If they don't do someting soon real wages will take another hit.IE GM forcing cuts on the union.

4. yeah ... but ...

I would like to know the nuts and bolts of his plan before giving a blanket yes.

[Mich Otter]

8. Do you believe we would have to reduce the military...

to pay the bills?
Would you support some reduction in the military if that is what is necessary for all Americans to get health care?

[DanCa]

10. eh i am sorry

I didnt understand the question. I would support military reduction.

5. Absofreakinlutely!

[FiveGoodMen]

9. Ditto! (I know, but Rush doesn't own that word)

6. Yes, indeed

The United States and South Africa are the only 2 nation in the world that do not have a national health care system.

A national health care system would stop job from being outsourced because the overhead cost of employees would go down.

The United States with all the PH.d's we have should be able to produce a better health care system than Canada.

7. It depends on WHAT national health care program

Hillarycare was awful; the DLC/Kerry plan left the problem--the insurance industry--in place, so I couldn't support that, either.

Until we eliminate the profit motive in health insurance we'll have a lousy system that concentrates on ways to deny care to sick people to maximize profit.

14. So how bad does it get before the $$$$ comes out of it.

I could never understand health for profit. I just never got that end of it all. *shrug*

11. National Health Care is not far off

Major corporations want to get rid of their responsibilities and associated costs. When the corporations and lobbyists begin withholding contributions, the house and senate will take action.

[Toots]

12. You ask that question here??????

Duhhhhhh..

[Mich Otter]

13. Just thought I'd ask instead of assuming.

Some Democrats don't want a national health care program because they believe it would reduce their benefits.
