We get rewarded for being healthy and/or not going to the doctor much. Our premium is relatively cheap, but we pay out of pocket the first $1200 of health care every year (outside of annual check-ups and a few other exceptions). We can set it up so that most or all of it comes out of a pre-tax Health Savings Account we dump some paycheck into.<br /><br />It's best if you are a macho dude like Dave and don't go to the doctor unless you have to. That also makes cancer hit you much worse if you get it, but that's another story. Sounds like this is the health plan for you.

My favorite was the guy I know who tore his acl and was made to wait 6 months for surgery. He was less than thrilled.<br /><br />As to Marls point on bench strength (and homo/xenophobia), I'd like to disagree with him. If I had to back a horse for 2012, I'd look at John Thune or Paul Ryan...both somewhat obscure but both are extremely bright and informed. Thune's a little more religious right that I'd ideally prefer, but he's also the more viable candidate of the two. Both aspire to be pres someday but they also may both want to wait til 2016.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00250712159141328195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-74779489441622259852010-01-20T12:12:36.247-05:002010-01-20T12:12:36.247-05:00And clearly it won't work - Europeans are drop...And clearly it won't work - Europeans are dropping dead while waiting in line to see the doctor and they don't have any money to do anything like travel to NY and block my view of Impressionist masterpieces.zmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435738243743797845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-38357323303951283572010-01-20T12:01:00.454-05:002010-01-20T12:01:00.454-05:00Dave - Do we really think that socialized health c...Dave - Do we really think that socialized health care will relieve businesses? Somebody has to pay for this. Businesses and individuals will have to carry the cost just as they do now.
