A Buffalo Bills game... what CANT you learn there!I have bills season tix and there are a ton of canadians there. the subject of healthcare always comes up somehow.
They pay 40 dollars for 24 beers, they pay over 10 dollars a pack of cigarrettes, their paychecks are *****, and they have a 14 percent sales tax up there.
Here, you can BUY a good plan for around 300/mo. I don't know, but I would much rather not pay for lazy bums who do not have or do not want jobs to get coverage. I think it will just promote way more people not giving a **** and promote this country to be even lazier than it has gotten. NO ONE deserves a free ride.
But seriously, at $300 a month just to insure you IN CASE you need medical help... to me that screams there is a serious problem with medical costs these days. Think about it, that's a car payment for a decent vehicle, a REAL and SUBSTANTIAL object an entire industry DID work to create (the car). You pay that JUST IN CASE the medical professional is needed within that 30 day period. Ridiculous imho.
That's almost five thousand dollars a year just to gamble in case you need to get medical help. ***-****, if you ask me.
