Something smells...

If they cannot afford one, should one be provided for them by the government? Where does it end? Flat screen TV's? The right to keep and bear a washer/dryer set? If you do not have a lawnmower, one will be provided for you by an illegal alien? How much can or SHOULD the government do? 4. Is that why when Cuba's leader Fidel Castro, was on his death bed he was flown halfway around the world to get medical care? I'm just sayin. All OF YOUR DEMOCRATS ARE BLIND.

n fact, it is against FEDERAL LAW to deny health care to someone who needs it. It is illegal in this country. In addition, there are in nearly every city in America, hospitals who treat patients every day who have no way of paying. There are also thousands of clinics and programs to help those who can't pay catastrophic medical bills. 3. It's inexcusable that some people don't own their own homes. Is a permanent place to live ALSO a fundamental right? Some people don't own a car.

In many cases, it may be expensive, but so are a LOT of things in this country that aren't "rights"...like auto insurance or homeowners insurance...which are things we are forced by law to have, but the government doesn't provide.2. Well unfortunately, that woman and her baby did die, that's true. However, she was NEVER turned away, she did receive treatment (she just couldn't be saved), and she DID have health care insurance.

The Argument Against Idiots: Health Care 1. First of all, I'd like you to point out where that "right" is spelled out in the Constitution? But while you're looking that up, lets just address your "expensive privilege for the few", statement. The fact is, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, 84% of Americans HAVE health insurance. Now my math may be fuzzy, but that seems like-not "the few", but "the many". In fact, the OVERWHELMING majority.

There was little damage my car. I was treated for whip lash finally found out I had three bulging disc in my cervical they paid for. I have a $50,000 uninsured motorist rider on my policy. I at this point was offered $1000 for three discs snapped. Now Travelers are saying they are not paying for degenerative disease. I was never treated for this disease nor knew I had it till this auto whiplash happened. Attorneys will not help not enough money and they dont want to be tied up for yrs TRAVELERs

So, what insurance company do you work for?

No wonder Insurance premiums in Washington has skyrocketed. Tons of frivilous lawsuits, lawyers having a field day with hundres of millions of dollars in fees. R67 was the most EVIL Washington state Referendum in history and the people were stupid in passing it.

Absolutely and State Farm is the biggest offender of the Katrina victims, they've been victimized again by their insurance companies. I have no idea how they sleep at night, but apparently they do.

Same with me, it's been 3 1/2 years and I haven't been offered a dime. I have medical proof that I was injured (to this day I have lost feeling in 2 of my fingers and discs are now deforming my spine) and their client was under the influence hit me from behind when I was stopped, caused a significant amount of damage to both our cars and they're fighting it. There needs to be laws, end of story.
