WASHINGTON – John McCain's health plan would bring about a dramatic shift
in how millions of people get health insurance coverage. He would let people
shop around for plans offered by insurers in other states. New Yorkers
could look to Alabama, for example, or any other state when shopping for
coverage.

America?" McCain a |

发帖数: 21367 | 2 there is no health care system working in
a completely privatized environment
the root reason is: life has no market price
by saying this, I am not refering to "liberal mind" or "morality",
the fact is, no one can estimate how much would cost to save
a patient, and the patient has no way to choose or predict
the health care service outcome. in a short word, there is
no market. anyone can charge any amount for any service. |

Abortion Fight Erupts in Health Care Debate
By David M. Herszenhorn
After months of work by Congressional Democrats on major health care

by a fierce internal dispute among Democrats over the issue of insurance
coverage for abortions.

WASHINGTON -- Some married couples would pay thousands of dollars more for
the same health insurance coverage as unmarried people living together,
under the health insurance overhaul plan pending in Congress.
The built-in "marriage penalty" in both House and Senate healthcare bills
has received scant attention. But for scores of low-income and middle-income
couples, it could mean a hike of $2,000 or more in annual insurance
premiums the moment they say "I do."

Obamacare最吓人的一条：所有医疗都要管，不许设上限！每年out-of-pocket必须有限
，超过out-of-pocket保险必须全管。
这根本不可能work的，现代医学别的本事没有，让人一天造出去10万刀然后一直不停造
下去的本事绝对的有。你看对Obamacare歌功颂德的，都是那些一年100万医疗费的主儿
。有这些人在，你多交点税有用？只是让医院更是变着法子送人去ICU，呼吸机多吊n天
命，浪费一堆钱最后治死人完事。然后你多交的税就是无底洞无底洞！
所以essential health benefits（其中包括无上限条款）不去除，整个保险体系根本
不可能work。
只有像中国那样，有的保，有的不保，贵了就让你自费，穷人穷治，富人富治，才是唯
一可持续的路子。其它的方案都不可能work。所以GOP拼命的要去除essential health
benefits，即使CBO一帮烂人拼命扯后腿。

Likewise, businesses will be required to either offer their workers health
