Re: Health Care Passes the US House!

Low-income families are already provided national insurance called Medicaid. Problems happen when someone is just above that line. This is the result of fuzzy ideas like "low income families." Without numbers, those words are useless. But people are stupid. People hate numbers. And that doesn't just go for Americans. Because if we spoke of numbers, people would see how ridiculous it is to provide Medicaid to a family grossing up to $25,000/year but not the family that grosses $25,500/year (numbers are ballpark). Same thing with forcing insurance on said "low income families."

And it's not true that Americans don't want cures. Use that logic to explain the recent wave of vaccinophobia that has spread throughout the country. The vaccine is the best clear-cut example of preventative medicine and people have shunned it for symptomatic relief instead.
