Replying to a message of JIM WELLER to BOB ACKLEY: JW> Re-read your own words. How can you defend the current JW> system? BA>> so many people are not BA>> paying for it in some areas has caused several hospitals to BA>> either close their emergency departments or close BA>> completely. BA>> closing the military hospitals at active duty bases (and BA>> during a shooting war). Easily. I've had to deal with government health care in this country. In most cases it was adequate. In some cases it was maddeningly slow (as in waiting hours in the former base hospital's emergency room; now that the hospital's been closed the now 'Urgent Care Center' walk-in clinic is usually deserted - and now you have to make an appointment to be seen there). As I noted, the government is quietly closing military hospitals because hospitals are expensive to run. You - and a LOT of other people - are confusing the insurance system in this country with the health care system. In point of fact there is not a health care crisis in this country and there never has been, despite all the caterwauling. And you're also confusing the price of health care with the cost of health care. If the costs don't get covered the provider goes under, period.
