YOUR VIEWS: Senate health bill offers serious solutions

No to Health Bill wrote on Nov 20, 2009 10:52 PM:

" If this bill should passed I hope it has mandatory drug testing for those who think this will really work. Wake up this is a joke this has nothing to do with healthcare. If this was the greatest thing since sliced bread then why are the politicians not opting to join? "

" This bill should die ASAP I'm a U.S. citizen living in Canada and the socialized medicine here is very different from what we as Americans are used to. When the government gets involved, it's not good. You can't call a specialist if you want one. Do you want to see a dermatologist? You have to go to your family physician first --- if you can find one! Not all doctors take new patients! Your family doctor will then get you a referral to a specialist. That can take months. You have no control as to WHEN you can see the specialist. The specialist will call you WHEN HE/SHE is available to see you. This is not what we should do to the U.S. system. Individual free choice is not an option under the Canadian system. I know because for 9 years I have lived under this system. This proposed healthcare bill sounds much too similar to what we have in Canada. It's not what you should be wanting as Americans. "
