"Author's Comments: "Overall, health insurance coverage is critically important for cancer patients and survivors," said Han. "Even those who had private insurance coverage reported financial hardship, suggesting that the types of coverage and extent of patient cost-sharing are important too."" You must not be a reader either, because you didn't read all my comment beyond my asking if people had insurance previous to the illness.

I never said I was for Obamacare...I said insurance reform was not the solution. Lobbing and funding by the medical industry of political campaigns ..etc is the problem.

Heart attack, Cancer...etc. No wait at all. So you just tolerate the pain for six months? There is not much of a wait for any type surgery in the U.S.

Ridgerunner Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 You two believe in government run healthcare and I believe in private run healthcare, so there is no way we will ever agree. Nothing more to talk about.

The lowest argument Americans always use is wait times. It's a very lame one compared to going broke.

happyone Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 You all can move to California and part of your tax dollars--about 98 million the first year--will go to help pay for illegal immigrants under the age of 25.--thanks to the Democratically controlled State and our own citizens still suffer---the homeless situation getting worse for example
