Health insurance for all Americans?
Is it true that 45 million Americans have no health insurance? There is lots of doubt about this figure. Many claim, with reasonable authority, that this includes illegals, those in between jobs that offer insurance, and folks who are not interested and wish to self-insure.
If that number is considered, that is only about 15% of the population. In truth, we are looking at true need in only about 5% of the population.
Questions:
One: Are they getting medical help now? Yes, they do, when they go to ERs.
Two: In dealing with this small group , should we tinker with the entire health insurance system?
That could have everything collapse: What we like today, with what we would like corrected. Including independent use of doctors and medical treatment, when we want it and when we need it.
How about giving the poor uninsured a free membership card for private insurance of their choice?
