Welcome to socialist medicine.
What angers me the most about the idiots who are the biggest proponents of socialized medicine (like our buddy baskin) is that they all forget the HMO experiments 30 years ago, which were universally reviled and thankfully killed.
People don't appreciate that the biggest reason US healthcare costs so much is because US healthcare employs so many specialists and has many more state of the art facilities, which happen to cost a hell of a lot of money.
So if our resident idiot shouters are so keen on 100% coverage, they should be honest with their proposal and ask the 85% of Americans who currently have comprehensive coverage if they're willing to give that up to go to a full HMO model, with much less specialists and medical access, in exchange for providing coverage for the 15% (many of whom don't want medical insurance)
It's not a question of who pays for what, but a question of losing your doctor.
