U.S. Healthcare in Crisis.

NO SHIT FOR BRAINS, it's IBD's supposed source and THEIR numbers.

No, they're your numbers. You even stated that IBD might not have even published an article with those numbers.

Then, when I check what numbers you produced, they didn't match the actual numbers whatsoever.

So there are two possibilities: either you credulously copied and pasted from some blog or email or just made them up. Either way, it doesn't matter.

Given that it sounds like the public single payer countries have better or similar outcomes, why support private sector insurance plans?

NO THEY ARE NOT MORON. No matter how many times you repeat this stupidity, they are only numbers I copied.

Quote from Lucrum:
A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.

You even stated that IBD might not have even published an article with those numbers.

Here you're finally correct about something. AFTER my original post I wrote the article may have never been published in IBD. IOW the numbers may not be accurate. And if your so fucking dense you still don't get it...I was CONCEDING they may be wrong.

So there are two possibilities: either you credulously copied and pasted from some blog or email or just made them up.

A rather stupid assumption on your part. But it's hardly the first from you now is it?

Given your complete lack of reading comprehension and your apparent desperate need to rush back with a response to anyone not agreeing with your dumb fuck stupid ass liberal BS. I guess I shouldn't be surprised you haven't noticed that I've already made it very clear as to why I oppose our government getting involved (more than they already are) in health care.

I don't care, it doesn't matter. The numbers are wrong.

Is there any reason to support private insurance when it can't outperform public insurance even thought it costs twice as much?

I guess I shouldn't be surprised you haven't noticed that I've already made it very clear as to why I oppose our government getting involved (more than they already are) in health care.

If I remember correctly, you stated it's because the government is incompetent. If that's true, why can governments perform equal to (or even outperform) the private sector, if they're inherently less efficient?

So references to say the Dartmoth Health Atlas http://www.dartmouthatlas.org/
or the CRS report to Congress
found here
http://assets.opencrs.com/rpts/RL34175_20070917.pdf are probably completely wasted on you.

You won't even read them because they are heresy to you.

And YOU like most liberals I've interacted with are an arrogant condescending jack ass who is constantly making dumb fuck assumptions.

I visited and scanned the dartmouth web site. Is there a specific article that is going to magically enlighten me you'd like to point out. Or was I supposed to read the whole fucking site?

I did read all 65 pages of the report to congress. There are some interesting statistics. But I still have absolutely no desire whatsoever to have the likes of Obama and Pelosi <s>running</s> ruining the health care system, as flawed as it may be.
