Medical Reform

In recent news.... Medical Reform is making huge waves in my mind. In essence, I don't believe that my (when I say "my", I mean my families) taxes to pay for people who could afford private insurance.
I mean really??? I can't figure out how any person,especially in government, could think that they can provide medical funds for every person in America. It is virtually impossible, mainly because of the number of undocumented aliens in our country; I theorize that we can not go through with any federally-funded medical system for "all Americans" unless we first tackle the issue of illegal immigrants.
I also theorize that if this plan were to be passed, it would deminish the funding for our military. The military known around the world as one that is to feared, admired by all countries. I think that if we allow this medical system to be allowed, the standards set by our military, that every country wishes to aspire to, will fail its self. For example, in Canada, the federal government provides medical insurance to all; Yet, most people, and historians, would agree that when asked to compile a list of the Top 10 Most Powerful Militarys in The World, they wouldn't even think of Canada.
I am stating that: Military power and medical funding are directly related. Mostly because when one has a budget, one must give percentages of said budget to indivual departements. Hence if one increase funding to the medical department, one must take away from the military department. My one fear is that, a military that is said to be the most powerful, will deminsh quickly with the increase of medical insurance funding.
I therefore state that: I am against a federal medical insurance plan.
