So, Mitt says.."Uninsured can go to the emergancy room." Same as George Bush.. [View all]

What a bunch of fools and selfish assholes..The single most expensive way to care for people, and they suggest it. Why?
To help the poor insurance comanpies. Single payer is so much more efficent and less expensive . And single payer will save lives and catch diseases long before the emergancy room.
