Great discussion! Thanks Dbusonne for beginning it. I for one am againest UHC for all the reasons the others here have stated. I have many serious health issues and need to see specialists from time to time. So far, I've had fairly good luck with my health-care providers here in T.V. (we have TVHC). That said, when I read what the government is putting into place....remember when Obamacare wasn't quite there yet and ALL the promises being given?? Folks will have to wait (it's already happening in some instances) and if I remember correctly, once one reaches 75 there will be concerns. The healthcare system will have the power to deny care. Folks scoffed at the notion of "death panels"...well I think that will also become a reality. It's never a good thing when governmental agencies get their fingers in the "pie". Already Big Pharma and Insurance companies have way too much power. One more thing came to my mind as well....a few years ago 2017 was given as a year for changes in H.C.
