#2Everything I read about healthcare recently just reinforces the notion that we need public health care. Let's just model our system after say, Canada's, and call it done.

Perhaps it's an apt metaphor: All you need to know about health care in 2013 is that there's no response.

Easier said than done. If you recall, the relatively modest improvements in the Affordable Care Act were narrowly approved by Congress and then narrowly avoided being struck down by the Supreme Court.

Issues I have with public health care:
1) The government hasn't been able to run anything efficiently as long as I've been alive. It's not like we can just go back if UHC doesn't work out.
2) The more the government runs our lives (especially something like health care), the more they will be able to dictate our choices (what we eat, risky behavior, etc).
3) I haven't seen one person that supports public health care tell me the downsides. I know they exist and we need to know the risks (and talk about them openly) before making such a huge change to our current system.

I don't even need public healthcare. I just want something that does away with the current employer-sponsored system. We should make it easier, not harder, for people to move between jobs, take gaps to start companies or get new training, etc. We shouldn't be discouraging younger workers from getting preventative care so they can stay healthy and keep contributing to the economy.

You do realize that this is a recipe for inordinate amounts of public debt that you and I will never have to pay but our children and grandchildren will. Much like Social Security, Cananda's unfunded liabilities are long term too great:

It's slow but the site loads. Don't think they were expecting this amount of traffic.
