Check the statistics. Every one, without exception, shows government medical saves money. As for incentive every country with a government plan has managed to find the incentive.

Why don't you check the statistics? Any statistic. They all show the same thing.

At the expense of quality. The WHO ranks the US 37th in health care yet we have the #1 survivability rate in cancer and other aggressive diseases. ObamaCare will change all that, since it will stifle innovation. Why do you want people to die?

37th in health care. That means the citizens in 36 other countries live longer. Just wanted to clarify the definition of "health care". :) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_life_expectancy) Furthermore, virtually all of those 36 countries have a form of government health care.

As for "quality" and the US having the highest survival rate concerning cancer and other aggressive diseases the bottom line is to prevent/delay death, be it from cancer or diabetes or heart attack or ........ When it comes to health care the primary definition of "quality" is, "how long you live."

Check out these numbers. Don't they make yours somewhat inconsequential?

Abstract: The Affordable Care Act is making a difference for young adults, among the groups most at risk for lacking health insurance in the United States. Young adults up to age 26 may now stay on or join their parent’s health plans if they include dependent coverage, and early reports indicate that at least 600,000 have done so. Starting in 2014, of the 14.8 million uninsured adults ages 19 to 29, an estimated 12.1 million could gain subsidized coverage once all the law’s provisions go into effect: 7.2 million may gain coverage under Medicaid and 4.9 million may gain subsidized private coverage through state insurance exchanges. New findings from the 2010 Commonwealth Fund Biennial Health Insurance Survey indicate the need for these reforms: 45 percent of young adults reported delaying needed care because of costs in 2010, up from 32 percent in 2001, and 39 percent reported problems paying medical bills.

That list does not coincide with the WHO list. :nono:

Long life may be your definition of life quality but many have other definitions. Obesity is rampant in the US and along with smoking is a major cause of early death. To these people food and tobacco is what they live for.
 
Bravo is talking about jobs and Apple's response is ObamaCare. Who's going to pay for these freebies when there are no more jobs?

Obama donor lays off workers due to Obamacare

Stryker Corporation has announced that it will close its facility in Orchard Park, New York, eliminating 96 jobs next month. It will also counter the medical device tax in Obamacare by eliminating 5% of their global workforce, an estimated 1,170 positions. ...

Stryker, a member of the Forbes 400 list, was one of the top five donors to the Obama campaign. Having donated $2 million to the Priorities USA Action super PAC, Stryker also gave $66,000 in contributions to Obama and the Democrat Party.

Prior to the 2012 election, Stryker contributed millions to help Democrat candidates in his home state of Michigan. He also gave nearly $250 million to groups supporting gay rights, transgenderism, and the conservation of apes.,,,,,(is that redundant?)

Had you bothered to research the topic, you'd know that this was a takeover/liquidation issue.

They made this announcement a long time ago.

And you claim they still contributed to Obama? Why is that?

You're right. My list puts the US at 37th place and your list puts the US at 37th place. Which 37th place do you prefer? :lol:

Sorry. How silly of me to use longevity as a determining factor in the quality of healh care. What was I thinking?

Everybody should take note of bravo's dishonesty in these job posts. Obamacare has zero to do with the reasons they're laying off workers. And his first company isn't even in the US, gee, how did Obama manage that?

Sal. Oppenheim jr. & Cie. AG & Co. KGaA is a European Private Bank, currently headquartered in Cologne, Germany. It manages and administers €138 billion of assets and employs around 3,800 employees in more than 30 sites in Germany and Europe. In October 2009, Deutsche Bank announced plans to buy Oppenheim, a purchase which was completed in March 2010.

MAHANOY CITY - Blaschak Coal Corporation has temporarily laid off workers at its three mining operations in order to reduce its inventory of coal, with workers to return in early December. Blaschak President/CEO Greg Driscoll said employees will return to work on Dec. 3.

YAKIMA, Wash. -- More people are off the job at the Yakima County Jail and, more layoffs could be on the way. Jail costs climbed too high while fewer prisoners came through the door. Action News looked at whether the staff is being cut too thin for your safety. Nine officers and two administrators were laid off this month. The cuts were made to help save a million-dollar shortfall in this year's jail budget.

ELYRIA, Ohio - Elyria Foundry said it was forced to lay off a number of employees following Friday night's fire at the business.“We care deeply about our associates and are doing what we can, such as continuing health insurance benefits..."

BROOME COUNTY, N.Y. -- More layoffs at a local company after business slows down. Endicott Interconnect Technologies, with a range of electronic platform businesses, announced Friday it is laying off 55 employees effective immediately. The layoffs aren't specific to any department and the company said the decision is the result of contract delays.

The Islip Town Board approved a $111 million budget, which includes a 28 percent increase in Town taxes, at a special meeting Monday afternoon. The 2013 budget was cut by $8 million following a public backlash against a preliminary budget that had called for a 65-percent hike in Town taxes. The reduced budget eliminates 22 full-time positions in the Town, including seven from the public safety department, four from the Town's shellfish hatchery in East Islip and two from the the Town's Assessor's Office.

Family Outreach Thrift Shop on Mahoning Avenu in Youngstown Ohio

The Nicholas Hoare bookstore in Westmount ( International )

More bravo dishonesty. The bookstore's in Quebec, not the US.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - A thrift store on the west side of Youngstown is being forced to close because the city denied them a zoning waiver. Family Outreach Thrift Shop on Mahoning Avenue just opened up a couple months ago after changing locations.


After forty years in business, the Nicholas Hoare bookstore in Westmount is closing. The store almost closed earlier this year due to high rent and pressure from online and big box retailers. A note on the store's blog announces it will be closing "for good."
 
You weren't, obviously, because you ignored the impact of smoking and a high fat diet that is indicative of many Americans.


Riiight! Longevity has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of health care.

I will say one thing. When it comes to disagreeing with Obama Repubs will say the silliest things.

In other words, you don't have an answer.

I've given the answer a dozen times. Repeat after me, "ObamaCare, which includes yearly check-ups, will result in detecting illnesses before they reach the critical stage thereby saving money due to people taking preventative measures."

Do you run your car until it breaks down or do you check the oil and take it to the garage for periodic maintenance/check-ups?
