Can someone tell me if I have Bush's Health care reform right?

[gizmo1979]

The way I understand it.He would basically junk employer insurance in place he would put catastrophic health care in it's place along with high deductible policy's paid for by the individual through health savings accts. He says this would make people use health care responsibly.Does that mean only see a doctor when you're in the back of an ambulance?If I have this right this is a complete outrage!How can we get across to the BUSHIES that THERE IS NO EXTRA MONEY!If this passes at least I won't have to worry about social security,because I'll be long dead!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Yes, the theory is that if you have to pay with your own money you'll

go with the lowest-priced option.

I can just see it. You're in an ambulance after a heart attack, and you tell the EMTs, "Before you take me in, run in and ask how much they charge to treat a heart attack, and if it's over $x, let's try another hospital." :eyes:
