I disagree because at least in this country, you don't have to sit around and wait for permission to have a life saving surgery or not....

I can understand the insurance companies deciding if one should have the bunion surgery or not. But in most cases of
life saving i.e. heart attacks, etc.

Again, misleading information.
I really have no idea where you get those information from?

Thank you for providing the link as it was stated in the link that Canadians had to wait, plus there was statistics of people waiting for their surgeries..
Secondly...do you really believe everything that Michael Moore says in his documentary? Remember that documentaries are a matter of opinion. Doesn't mean it's right or wrong, just neither. And Michael Moore is a 'flamer' just like you , me and everyone else on these boards.

I mean any Americans who cannot afford to insure the health insurance extra for the family or themselves when they work to pay taxes for Medicard/Medicare for low income family. It would be cheaper for them if they are under Hillary's plan if they WANT to insure health insurance. One ADers in my thread stated that she like to insure health for her family but she feel $400 per month for family insurance coverage is too much whom she work to pay taxes. That's why I thought she would not need to insure extra when she work to pay taxes to Medicare/Medicard if she join Hillary's plan.

I know I am going to get h*** for saying this but if the individual thinks its too much to have their families health covered for that amount of money is too much then that particular individual doesn't have their family's best interest at heart.
Insurance costs money. Period. If you want the best for your family, you will shell out money for the best. If not, then don't complain. You get what you pay.

Who do you think would pay for the medical insurance for the low income people? The American taxpayers. Hillary's plan would be more expensive for middle income people like me and Hubby. It will cost more for us, not less.

And if we cover the low income people and when it comes time for the middle class to say, " Cover me please," the Feds will say..."Sorry, you make too much money!".
Good point Reba, it will be expensive for us middle class people.
Anyway, getting back to Hillary vs. Obama......
Obama will probably get the South due to the race card whereas Hillary will get NY, MA, CT, and CA.
They both may not want to be side by side if one is the President and Vice-President, but if their party wants them too, they will probably give into the Democrat party....
