The problem with Obama's healthcare plan is that the doctors will not be the ones making the critical decisions. His plan will create a system that relies on simple flow chart decision trees that don't meet the needs of complex medical care and oversimplify medical decisions that should be made by a person with the proper education needed. This is not a good plan EVEN if it covers everyone- because in a socialist society the GOVERNMENT decides not the PEOPLE. Our country is founded on the principles For the People, By the People. Barack has this all wrong.

Rons,

I have read the Obama Health plan in painstaking detail. The plan will create a new NATIONAL plan that is overseen by a "commission" of regulators. This group will establish the rules for coverage and payment schedule. His plan states he will attempt to reduce the cost of care by LOWERING the compensation paid to the doctors, nurses, and other professionals in the healthcare field.

Furthermore, Obama's plan will "levy taxes" against companies that don't accept his NATIONAL plan. The overall plan will have the effect of moving more than 25 MILLION people from employer supported plans to the new NATIONAL plan. Let me tell you something that you seem to poorly understand ----> this is BAD. I know what I am talking about. Go read the report yourself.

The plan will help millions of Americans that want very basic care. The care will be good, it's just that there is very little choice in the decision making process. It is not for everybody, but for many it's ok.

Insurance. How many millions of Americans are without health insurance because they simply can't afford it. An average 80/20 plan for me and my family would cost almost $6000 a year. If my son breaks an arm, it's a $3000 bill. My portion is $600. My annual bill with insurance is $6600. With no insurance, it would be $3000. Do the math.

Employer supported plans. More companies are moving away from these plans because they are just to expensive. Large companies like The Home Depot, Boeing...companies of this size, will continue to carry the policies because the risk group is still so large the price can remain somewhat affordable. Smaller companies have had price increases and either tell their employees there is no more insurance or offer it at an outrageous price. For people who are still making good money and can afford to make decisions about their healthcare, the national plan is not for them. But for people who need basic care every now and again, it's not a bad option.

If you don't like the plan, don't participate in it. Save your money and go to whatever doctor you want. No one will stop you. But don't comdemn millions of Americans that would like to be in your position and simply can't.
