You are already paying for health care, and health care is already rationed by insurance companies.
The problem is you can not run a health care system as a "for profit" industry. What incentive do insurance companies have for paying for treatment? Insurance company executives get fat and happy on your premiums. While making sure a hugh ammount of disinformation is spread about the government plans in order to get you in an uproar so they continue to make more money off of you.
As to whether the president will opt for the same health care as you. What a freaking joke to even ask the question. I have no problem with what is provided for the president nor his family, nor for the members of congress. Just like I have no problem with health care being available to active duty military. They have enough to worry about.
