10. I am with you 100%
Edited on Fri Feb-16-07 12:41 AM by kineta
add to this list ridiculous ideas such as making insurance mandatory the way car insurance is. That's a brilliant solution.

As for paying for it - the savings to businesses and individuals will more than offset tax any increases. I would think that every corporation in the country would be behind this - how can they possibly compete with foreign companies located in civilized countries?

edited to add: the current system is a benefit ONLY to insurance companies - and maybe pharma companies that can bilk the insurance companies. It certainly doesn't benefit people in need of health care, or hospitals & doctors dealing with so many uninsured patients, or corporations who have to pay huge amounts in insurance benefits.
