You are effectively eliminating 16% of the private sector and the tax revenues on the profits that go with it. So how do we fund public health care while maintaining your beloved military industrial complex, corporate welfare, bailouts, and pro-war agenda?
Cut defense, in half (close all overseas bases). Repeal oil subsidies. Only cover, universally, life threatening procedures. Allow people to buy their own supplemental insurance if they have acne.
Those aren't liberal answers, those are conservative answers.

Can you give me any indication that Barack "Peace Prize" Obama will cut defense in order to give all Americans health care? Remember that Obama is owned by the military industrial complex; they are a big donor to his campaign.

That is funny! "eliminating 16%" etc. Hey, if Hannity and company had said '98 %' would you be quoting that?
Anyway, I am tired of paying the health care costs of those millions who have no insurance, and have no intention of getting insurance. Our property tax here in Tarrant County, to pay for the county hospital, is sky high.
You see, if you have some 40-50 million people who refuse to have health insurance, and refuse to pay for their own health care, said millions will nevertheless go to emergency rooms, clinics, etc, demanding health care. Said health care may be 'free' to them, but not 'free' to the rest of us.
Why so many people want to continue providing 'free' health care to a bunch of uninsured people is beyond me. I want them to pay.
I am a true Conservative. I do not want to pay for uninsured people's health care.
Go after the Medical Industrial Complex, which emphasizes costly treatment instead of prevention. Go after assets of insurance and hospital executives. Start imprisoning those who deny treatment, as an incentive. Slash overhead as European countries have done. Is our nation so incompetent and corrupt we cannot get our costs down to their level?

Nope, can you give me an indication that Republicans are willing to do it either?
Hell the trigger in the "super committee" to ensure a deal from Republicans were defense cuts!
