I have to say, this is ridiculous. Ins. companies are so greedy and so unfair. It seems even if you are young, you can be turned down for Health Ins.

Of course Mr Thomas Sowell feels this way and wrote this column. He is a Conservative!

Actually, the emergency room wouldn't be so clogged up with things like ear infections and sore throats from people who don't have insurance and have to receive their care through the ER.

Actually, when I have called the Dr. on the weekend or after hours, I got the answering service, then they relayed my problem to the Dr. on-call. I was able to talk to that Dr. and tell them my symptoms,

I agree about healthcare for all taking care of minor ailments out of hospital ER's.

I'm not really fearful of "waiting lines".
