I bet the dimwits who are in favor of this universal healthcare 'scheme' do not understand what it is or why it is doomed to be a colossal failure!!

I bet the dimwits who vote against this are the old PLP who always want a big something for a little nothing.

Its not complicated, our population is too sick to support NHI without imploding within a few short years. Costs and taxes to fund it will increase, but service will decrease!!
Any successful insurance scheme has to have a large number of well persons funding it and not using services for it to remain successful!

IF: The government can approach anywhere hear 70% of private sector supply and demand costing. at present they are worse than 10% at best.
So, the minister better get his current model shaped up by a large margin at least.
Caveat: it is doomed to fail, but seems they gotta do it the hard way and the economy will collapse for other reasons prior anyway.

**NO!** Get rid of the good for nothing, useless, parasitic Haitians and health care cost would immediately drop 60%, elevating the need to tax Bahamians AGAIN for health care!

absolutely not. these baboons in government would waste it like they do with everything else in this country. SAD!
