Maybe those companies would make a little more money if the consumer has a little more to buy their product too.

Maybe a little OT but do you honestly believe anyone will have more money once Obama gets done funding all his plans?

one issue that pisses me off is if anyone has ever been to war and does not get a full medical ride.

theoretically, the VA provides said ride. Realistically the disaster that is the VA / military medicine is a very good picture of the ineptitude to be expected from a US Gov't run medical system. The funding is astounding and the care is laughable.

They are taken care of, per se. However, VA care is better viewed as a fall back than as your primary health care option.

That is a great point in regard to talking about government provided health care.

The people who defend are willing to risk everything so medical care should be one of many free rides from our goverment.

they fall under the same medical system, but they also receive disability income for life. That income is based upon level of disability and military pay grade while serving.

The disability income is well deserved I am sure. Just thought your point was spot on for anyone that thinks government is the answer to health care.

that's been my answer forever to anyone seriously contemplating UHC. Just go check out what the services have available.

There's no need to "Swift Boat" John McCain or resort to dirty campaign tactics. All you have to do is look at his record and see that his stances on Immigration, Campaign Finance Reform and Taxes are at odds with the base of the party. I fully expect Romney to try and beat McCain over the head with those issues.

I'm a veteran of Desert Shield/Storm, the only care I was offered was in the case of any "Gulf War Syndrome". Otherwise, because I was a member of the National Guard, the VA would not be providing any other benefits.

After watching how the VA "cared" for my stepfather, I'm happy to pay for my own private insurance.

actually, I'm better off because of it. Instead of looking to the government to take care of me, I went out and busted my rear to provide for myself and my family.
