Bill: Health Care Reform

Details

Submitted by[?]: Reformed Conservative Party of Lodamun

Status[?]: defeated

Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Voting deadline: August 2629

Description[?]:

Refusing to allow private clinics within our borders is absolutely preposterous. Although we need to offer some sort of free health care to our citizens, private industry can benefit the health industry and offer alternatives to the public system. It is likely that these private clinics will eventually become more specialized, and can establish Lodamun as a leading health-research state. Also, clinics can be developed to more accurately serve people with special interests, such as religion, who may object to standard health procedures.

MessageWhy not let people go to private clinics if they so choose?

MessageBecause private clinics overcharge them and provide the same service we already do. When it comes to our citizens' health, no profit-making should be allowed.

MessageIt should be our people's choice if they wish to be over-charged. There is no reason to totally ban private health centers when we have already guarenteed that all of our people will get at least some form of health care. When it comes down to it, if I get cancer, I would much prefer to be overcharged at a private center that has a vested interest in making sure that I improve, than at a public health center where I'm just one of several million.

MessageOur people are not complaining, so there are no problems. As of this moment, your "claims" are unfounded.

Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr.
