we all do get some general idea but we don't know how is it being allocated to and it is not up to us.
lol... lol... no no -
Where do you think gas comes from? Middle East.
Who sell gas? Middle East.
Who profits from it? Middle East.
So when you buy gas - your money goes to Middle East's pocket. Your money MAY somehow gets trickled down to funding extremist groups to fight against Israelis or whatever.
sounds nice but what if the surgery is $5,000? How will low-class person pay for it? The rich person's tax makes up for it. Now - obviously in USA.... there are far too many low-class people and middle class people needing costly medical cares. There is no money for it unless the tax rate is more than 20% to cover for all. That's why it's not going to work.
Yes there are free clinics but it's mediocre. It provides basic medical attentions. It's still better than nothing. It depends on town/city to provide free clinic. It's funded by our tax money... and some by donations.
It's just a hindsight. Whatever the problem the person is having, they will take any opportunity to get it resolved while ignoring other issues or how it works. We all have seen this.
2004 Election - say the word "terrorist... 9/11" - that's why Bush got reelected and the voters did not realize about high cost, high debt, etc.
2008 Election - say the word "affordable health care" - perhaps Obama will get elected but then the voters would not realize that this mean a bump up in tax and various of other things.
ok but that "many Americans" are not the accurate representation of Americans in here.
We have cheap car, car gas, cheap tax compared to you. Our land is vastly expansive. Clearly - you have a geographical advantage to have an efficient mass transit system. We don't. It's too costly.
How do you know it'll work in America? Just because it works in UK or whatever doesn't mean it'll work in USA. Good luck changing things on federal laws/system scale. We have a very wide range of diversity of all classes, wealth, etc. and we have 50 states. Not that easy. If Obama really thinks his plan will work - then he should have ran for governor of Illinois and implement his plan. That's a good start. Romney already started his plan in Massachusetts. What's Obama got to show? absolutely nothing. zip. nada.
Must be real easy for him to do it... beside.. the size of UK is a pea compared to USA. Don't worry, hon.. Bush Administration is nearly over. I repeat - McCain Administration is not a continuation nor extension nor a duplication of Bush Administration. Every system/policy/law/etc. changes for each Administration.
Obama's plan is too big of a change and it is unrealistic. Don't get me wrong - his plan is great and lovely but I highly doubt he can pull it off. Not at his level of experience.
