    Want a physical? Pay cash. Want a prescription? Pay cash. Want a lab test? Pay cash.

    The free market works. Look at plastic surgery. No insurance but still priced accordingly to the free market.
    yes. this is better.

    ^ Exactly how it is.

    Blade is guilty of one-dimensional thinking, which is why he simply cannot comprehend the complexity of our health care delivery system. I'm fairly smart and it gives me a headache.

    So level with me; you've had the same health insurance for 30 years, the same job for 30 years, or the same provider for 30 years?

    The irony is that they can object to birth control on religious grounds, but allowing for Viagra, which leads to MORE pregnancies!

    Isn't that what this whole thread has devolved into? You say single-payer, govt-paid health insurance is bad, fascism, etc. so you refuse to entertain the notion that the majority of your fellow citizens want to have that kind of insurance. Tell me how that isn't forcing your opinion on the rest of us?

    Can you do that now, without incurring out-of-network costs if someone told you they have a really good doctor, but that doctor doesn't take your insurance???
