"And anybody that can't afford insurance will still receive emergency medical care. Don't think so, go to your local emergency room with an injury or illness and tell them you don't have insurance. You will still be treated."
You might be treated and you might not. Private hospitals have the right to refuse treatment because you can not pay. So if you get injured, you better hope they take you to a County Hospital or a City Hospital that Corporations are trying to buyout as we speak. The County Hospitals will bill you or try to setup some sort of payment arrangements, then you are turned over to a credit bureau if you fail to pay.
Speaking of jobs, you say there are plenty of jobs. Burger King, Jacks, McDonalds, store clerks, plenty of low paying jobs that don't offer benfits or medical insurance. Of course these jobs are better than nothing, but if you live a long way from your job with today's gas prices it may take your whole pay check, just to make the commute. People that are working low paying jobs are basically people that do not have an education, or do not have an education past high school. Some may be their fault, and some may be the fault of the system. Because everyone can not afford an education. Education should be a priority in America, but it seems to come last. Hell even American College Graduates in Technical fields can't get jobs. Want an example? Microsoft is still pushing for the Federal Government to allow more Visa's to foreigners that have technical degrees and backgrounds, which in turn causes Americans that are just as qualified to not get the jobs. What is the motivation behind this action? It seems Anti-American to me. Also, corporations had rather outsource labor to other countries, because they can get everything done cheaper, in turn fatening their pockets even more. How much money is enough?
