Boehner on Dems Health Care Plan: Higher Premiums, Higher Taxes, Fewer Jobs'

[checkthebrakes]

Republicans talk like only the very rich can create jobs. They want the existing huge, very large business to grow by not paying their share of taxes. They call these very large businesses ‘job providers’.

[TheBashku]

guess what, Boehner!

It passed. SUCK IT!!!!

[SuperEric39]

He is such a good man he wants everyone to have no healthcare and no social security and you broke ass wannabes love him. You will reap what you sow.

[wrodjr]

Boehner is a moron! He doesn't know the difference between the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence!

[teacherphysics]

when obama found out it will be to late he will be richer and spent billions of tax money on himself, like the others

[JohnLloydScharf]

Google "Progressive Capitalist H.R 3962" to find my blog on this.

[RichardE8ST]

Bla bla bla when will you ever make a point. How can anyone even provide a rhetorical to your ignorant rambling brainless bullshit. A half of a million sperm and you were the fastest one? Thats pathetic.

[rationalnow]

I wasn't freakin' talking to you because you're obviously a hopeless cause. I addressed my comments to others, I have NO interest in hearing your B.S. opinion anymore!

[RichardE8ST]

I don't care what you have an interest in. I write what I want. If you can't take it then don't read it. Do you think that I like to read your ignorant rambling boner loving BS?

[RichardE8ST]

Phalinex

Thanks but don't waste your time on this idiot. He writes the same pointless shit over and over every day. He knows he's full of shit he just likes the attention.

[RichardE8ST]

This french fried lying con-artist makes me sick. He spews his blatant lies and then claims that his sources are independent experts. Independent experts what the fuck is that? Who are these so-called experts? We will never know because they don't exist. Boner is a disgraceful liar. He refuses to debate a Democrat or answer any unfiltered questions because he knows that he is a sold out lying con-artist.

[RichardE8ST]

Medical malpractice cases account for less that 1% of the cost of healthcare. Republican proposals will not insure the uninsured. Republicans do not care about the uninsured. They care about the 10s of millions of dollars that they receive from the health insurance industry.

[TheLxrose]

What is so great about government healthcare. The Medicare is #1 at denying medical claims according to the AMA.

I know a girl who was turned down by Medicare after being diagnosed inoperable brain tumors. Turned down because she had a life insurance policy. It

is an asset. If you're a dead beat you can get it.

Democrats don't want tort reform because they collect millions from trial lawyers.

[Smartassawhip]

She wasn't on medicare and turned down.. she wanted medicare and they told her she could not have it because she did not meet the requirements. I do agree that the requirements are messed up and that is exactly what they are trying to fix right now which is why I am all for it. If this passes your friend will be able to get health care.

[TheLxrose]

Medicare is Government Healthcare. You want more of the same?

[Smartassawhip]

The folks who actually have medicare would kill you if you tried to take it away from them... That should tell you right there that they are satisfied. Why do you think that none of the politicians will dare threaten to take medicare away? Also why do you think the republicans are trying to use it being cut as a scare tactic... Because they know that if people on it thought they were in danger of losing it they will freak. Of course they aren't in danger.. but none the less.

[rationalnow]

If radical extremist Democrats insist on ramming through this massive destructive public option that the vast majority of Americans DON'T support, they will soon regret it! Besides destroying the over-all quality of health care, millions of Americans still wont' be insured and it would add over $1 trillion to our deficit! Power-hungry Democrats should do the right thing for once and work with Republicans for competent and positive changes to health care reform, NOT destructive and costly ones!

[SaveRepublic]

rationalnow,

It is a real huge disappointment democrats are going behind closed doors after obama campaigned on promises of transparency and openness to the American people. obama even said C-Span would cover events as important as this so we all would see how our government is shaping legislation. Is this the same guy that bashes Bush all the time not being fair to the American people. I guess obama can because he simply is obama and all Americans are suppose to like everything he does.

[rationalnow]

Yeah, I know SaveRepublic, Obama's entire campaign was nothing but a deceitful and corrupt sham on uniformed and gullible Americans who unfortunately couldn't see through all the B.S., lies, hypocrisy and corruption! This is probably the most dirty and unethical White House in history and they are doing everything they can to hide the truth behind this scandalous administration. Obama's radical agenda is falling fast as more Americans are now seeing through this lying radical scam artist!

[queen15840]

rolf! 'Boehner'. All im saying is thank God for the NHS. Britain Prevails!

[rationalnow]

If Democrats actually cared about the health and welfare of the American people, they would re-start the health care debate and work with Republicans for beneficial changes and additions to our current system. The public option would be the worst solution to our health care problems. It would negatively effect the quality of all health care and further increase the deficit. We need to make modifications to health care, NOT a massive over-haul!

[RichardE8ST]

If Republicans actually cared about the health and welfare of the American people they wouldn't block every effort to provide healthcare for all Americans. The public option is the best way to be sure that all Americans are covered, and Americans are overwhelmingly in favor of this option. It would lower cost of private insurance and you would have a choice of private or public insurance. Republicans are lying to deceive their followers because this is what they are paid to do.

[SaveRepublic]

RichardE8ST,

If liberals like you weren't selfish feeling entitled to other peoples money and wanting to compromise our entire capitalist free market system by supporting a communist ideological president Americans would prosper far more in the end. You should support Insurance competition across state lines and stopping tort lawyers suing over massive sums of money against the medical industry. Why won't you support this instead?

[RichardE8ST]

Republican proposals won't help anyone. We need a public option. If you don't understand why then you need to educate yourself. We are the only industrialized country that forces it people to chose between death or bankruptcy, food or sickness. America cannot sustain the current failed system. 10s of thousands are dying, 100s of thousands are bankrupting every year because they cant get health insurance. We are not barbarians if we cant keep our population healthy and educated we will fail

[azcardzfan2005]

People aren't dying.  If you go to an emergency room, you will get treated. The reason we have problems are because of lawyers. It sucks when a doctor in a civilized country has to pay 1 million for malpractice insurance. Thanks to liberals! John Edwards has amassed a 170 million dollar fortune by suing hospitals. Last week where I work a 91 year old woman was airlifted 125 miles to fix a cold leg(vascular). In Canada Natasha Richardson died bec. of an inept system.

[RichardE8ST]

I wish this french fried lying conartist would stop telling me what I want.

[RichardE8ST]

Go ahead and blame the Democrats for underestimating the damage that the repukes did to the economy thats all you've got.

[azcardzfan2005]

did what damage? by lowering tax rates? how about making sure hundreds of thousands of people who got home loans who had no business in the first place by........Barack Obama, Chris Dodd, and Barney Frank and Bill Clinton.

[RichardE8ST]

Taxs cuts for the rich have buried us in debt. Republican deregulation has bankrupted the economy by opening the door to corruption. Go to an emergency room without insurance you're likely to bankrupt. I went to an emergency room to get 10 stitches the bill was over 3K dollars. Can you imagine what the bill would be for something serious? N Richardson died because she didn't get to a hospital in time. Uninsured Americans would have to lay there and decide between their life and their house.

[rationalnow]

Your Obama/socialist-loving incompetent B.S. is really getting old! The govt-run health plan is NOT the answer to health care reform and only a blind backwards idiot can't see that or a liberal socialist-lover who just wants to push govt-controlled programs to take over all aspects of capitalism in our country!

Nobody believes your pathetic rants and slanderous LIES and B.S.! You're just a blind Obama lover full of hate for anyone against your god! You only want this PO because Obama does!

[Phalinex]

Richard has made some good points. Your response is more of the same sophomoric name calling rhetoric that you are known for. If you dont have a point to make shut the fuck up. The repukes are losing public support and they're getting desperate. Everything Boehner just said is a lie and you know it. If you don't know then educate yourself. The republicans count on the ignorance of their followers to push their corrupt agenda.

[rationalnow]

Yeah right, you and your pal Richard are both full of crap! All you do is spew the same LIES and B.S. liberal propaganda that you're being fed from that corrupt White House, liberal Congressional Democrats, all those hate-mongering liberal radical groups like Media Matters, Move On, Daily Kos, etc. and MSNBS! You're allowing these radical left-wing extremists to make an ass out of you by believing their lying B.S. and for pushing their socialist agenda that's so destructive for our country!

[azcardzfan2005]

Natasha Richardson died because of a inept system that after 14 hours and 3 hospitals no one, not a single doctor let alone a neurologist could properly diagnose her in the Canadian system. That's real compassion? Making everyone's healthcare equal if people prematurely die? Go watch Steven Crowder video on Canadian healthcare.

[RichardE8ST]

Crowder is a limbaugh jr. He thinks that his sarcastic smartass BS is funny but I prefer the facts.

Natasha Richardson didn't get to a hospital in time because she was in the middle of nowhere when she was injured.

If our HC system is better than Canadas why do they live three years longer than we do.

Why don't they have to choose between their house and their doctor, suffering or homelessness, pain or bankruptcy, living or loosing everything that they have?

[rationalnow]

"Crowder is a limbaugh jr. He thinks that his sarcastic smartass BS is funny but I prefer the facts." ---RichardE8ST

You are so full of crap, it's pathetic! You never have any facts, all you do is repeat the same B.S. liberal talking points from left-wing hate groups and your god Obama and other corrupt Democrats. You don't have a clue about what a public option would do to our health care system. You think you know more than the GOP leader and a Canadian who's lived under a PO system? LOL

[daeclipse03]

whos going to pay for this new plan?? Do you realize medicaire will be bankrupt in app. 7years? Have you noticed the 11.9 trillion debt we currently have? Or how the dollar is on a rapid decline which has the effects of pushing the price of oil back up did you know that? So how can we pay for all of these tax and welfare programs will fixing our economy and saving our currency and paying our debt off at the same time please elaborate and we will take you serious!!

[rationalnow]

Azcardzfan, I checked out the Steven Crowder video that you suggested. The Canadian health care system is sub-standard and criminally negligent, I believe, for the deaths of thousands of people who would never have died under the health care system we have in the U.S. The thought of radical liberal extremists dismantling our system to replace it with a flawed and inept govt. system is insane and irresponsible. We can't allow this damaging public option to destroy our great health care system!

[RichardE8ST]

rational in the rare events that you try to explain you reasoning you make no sense. If private insures can't compete with a government option its because the government option is better. The reason is the government is not in it for the profit. Dont you get it? Youre being played by the same fear and lies that you promote.

[Phalinex]

Youve just summed up the entire republican party. Why would a rep senator or congressman stand there and try to convince Americans that the government cant be trusted to do anything? They are the government. When they had complete control the government became dysfunctional from corruption and incompetent appointments, but they never complained about anything. Now that we have a competent government working for the people they cant stand it.

[RichardE8ST]

People die while the repukes lie. Fuck the repukes they had their chance and did nothing. Just as the HC insurance industry paid them to do while they had complete control of the government. Boner reads speeches written by HC insurance lobbyist. He's a sold out lying con artist. How could anyone fall for his ignorant propaganda? This incompetent liar is phony to the core.

[rationalnow]

How can anyone be stupid enough to fall for all the LIES and B.S. that Obama spews to them on his asinine endless campaign? Obama is a disgusting joke and this radical con artist lied, stole and deceived ignorant people to fall for all his B.S.! MSNBS and others were desperate to put this corrupt fraud in office and now Obama is doing whatever he can to destroy everything our country was founded on! Obama will never be a leader, he's our country's worst nightmare!

[RichardE8ST]

Irrationalnow President Obama is the leader you ignorant moron. Youre getting dumber by the day. The only thing you can do is read the comments of others and twist the words to fit your delusional rightwing propaganda. You dont have a single resource to back your ignorant bullshit. You dont even have a single new idea or anything of interest to discuss. Your only mission is to spread hate and discontent for the government through lies and deception.

[rationalnow]

First of all, Obama has a title but he is NOT a leader! I responded that way in my previous comment because of your hateful and disrespectful comment. All you did was spew hatred and slanderous lies against Leader Boehner and Republicans you had no facts or credible information.

You may not like me, my beliefs or how I do things but I never go to the White House or other Democrats' videos for the sole purpose of trashing them. I don't know why you always feel the need to slander Rep. Boehner.

[RichardE8ST]

Boner backed every tax cut for the rich, big oil and every borrow and spend bill bush put on his desk adding 8T to the debt a 1T deficit. The result is a bankrupted economy and massive debt and you want more?

Then he rejects the Democratic stimulus plan is because its 'chock-full of government programs and projects"

That's the point you idiot

Then he convinces morons like you that a public option is a government takeover as HC insurance lobbyist donate 10s of millions to the republicans.

[rationalnow]

What has that $9.25 billion so-called stimulus package do besides blow up the deficit and let the unemployment rate go to almost 10%?!

A public option IS a government takeover of our health care system! This disastrous public option would eventually lead to a full govt. takeover because private insurance companies would not be able to compete with a massive govt. programs. All health care quality will suffer and it will cost $1.6 trillion. Democrats are OWNED by special interest groups!

[RichardE8ST]

Actually it was about 770B and it kept this country from going into the second republican led depression. The banking system would have collapsed. Do you want to try that and see what happens? The only thing the government can do is take the edge off of the near destruction of the economy. The world economy has lost a projected 45T due to republican lies corruption and incompetence. 770B can't put us back to pre-bush, but it has produced 10s of thousands of jobs at a desperate time

[rationalnow]

Actually the stimulus was about $787 billion and how can it be judged as anything but a disaster when we were told that the unemployment rate would not go above 8% if it was passed, and it's now near 10%? The very few jobs that have been created are mostly temporary government jobs that cost more money to create than they produce. Once again, just more big government at taxpayers' expense. Small business expansion is the only answer to lowering the unemployment rate, NOT big government!

[RichardE8ST]

Small government promoter bush grew the government more than any president in history. Why didnt you complain as he borrowed trillions after he inherited a surplus, and a strong growing economy. You want small government? What the fuck is small government? Its nothing more that a repuke buzz word with no meaning. Just more shit to feed the anti government propaganda machine. If you want small business to grow stop giving all of the money to the rich.

[WolfSyndrome]

@ Smartassawhip AND Austinbit:

YOU ARE BOTH RIGHT! it depends on where you live and what denomination is dominant. in some places Christians are respectful to women, in others they are not.

[Smartassawhip]

I was referring to my experience here on youtube mainly.. but I have had experience in real life living in the bible belt that reflect my views as well. I live in Missouri and every two weeks another God fearing Christian man is on The news busted for some of the sickest crimes against women and children you can imagine. I am a very spiritual person but I refuse to be a part of any organized religion.

BROKEN PROMISES BY OBAMA

"NO individual mandate to buy health insurance!"

Jan. 31, 2008...

obama... "I think we can anticipate that there would be people potentially who are not covered & are actually HURT if they have ***a mandate imposed*** on them."

In June 2009...

obama indicated in a letter to Kennedy & Sen. Max Baucus that he was changing his tune to ***accommodate Congress*** on the proposed bills that CALL for an ***individual mandates***!

BROKEN PROMISES BY OBAMA

"Transparency"

obama.. "I will bring all parties together, & NOT negotiate behind closed doors, & broadcast those negotiations on C-SPAN so that the American people can see what the choices are."

Obama has announced deals with groups like the pharmaceutical industry & the insurance industry after they were worked out in backroom deals.

Meanwhile, Baucus, not only shut out the public, but shut out most of his own committee from his "bipartisan negotiations."

BROKEN PROMISES BY OBAMA

"LOWER PREMIUMS by $2,500 for a Family of Four" ????

"If you've got health insurance through your employer, you can keep your health insurance, keep your choice of doctor, keep your plan," obama said on 10-15-08 debate against McCain.

"The only thing we're going to try to do is lower costs so that those cost savings are passed onto you.

And we estimate we can ***CUT***the average family's premium by about $2,500 per year."

[bigtex501]

"LOWER PREMIUMS" (cont)

CBO.. "For most preventive services, expanded utilization leads to higher, not lower, medical spending overall.

The legislation from the Senate Finance Committee could result in higher premiums for customers.

The insurance industry is threatening that the $6 billion industry-wide fee & other taxes Sen. Baucus has proposed will be passed on to consumers.

This means..

It may be YEARS OR DECADES before any overall savings from obama's plans materialize.....if at all."

Coming soon to a theater near you: Revenge Of The Republicans!!! Rated R.  :-)

The next few elections should be interesting.

[sandmanhopes]

WOW! today senate healthcare a Colorado mom speaks" Golden Rule denies coverage as many insurance co. do to a previous C-section!

golden rule said if the women got sterilized then they would cover her! even though she is healthy & can have many children! in all but 5 st's it is leagle to dicriminate against women & ask them to be sterilized. god forgive insurance. who ask our women to be sterilized. god forgive repubs protecting them wanting no reform! not true chritians at all. Like Hitler!

[pizzafrenzyman]

@sandmanhopes, you're watching and reading too many liberal based outlets. Republicans are not opposed to healthcare reform, just not stupid healtcare reform. All the amendments that Republicans have proposed in committees have been shot down by partisanship. Now that you now know what is really happening in the committees, go back to MSNBC and the NY Times for more misinformation.

[Smartassawhip]

How can you call what he said misinformation when it is in fact the truth? Did you even bother to check it out first? I know you have a mother, possibly a sister, a daughter or maybe even a close female friend... at any rate this should concern us all because it is wrong regardless of what side of the aisle you are on.

[Smartassawhip]

I actually saw that. it was on the evening news last night. That is insane. I don't know why they are thumbing down your comment when it is a fact.

[TheLxrose]

Insurance is a business. If they didn't make money at it, it wouldn't make much since to be in business.

Insurers say they need these strategies to protect themselves because some customers apply only after they get sick or pregnant.

Its also possible women and obstetricians of schedule unneeded caesareans for their own convenience -- to deliver the baby at a certain time or to avoid labor.

Abuses of some are paid by others.

I thought libs were for reducing population

to reduce co2.

[Smartassawhip]

As a woman who has had 2 C-sections myself I can assure you that no woman would so more than once to avoid anything for a lot of reasons. A C-section is by no means a convenience... Only a man would say such a thing. As far as you thinking libs are for depopulation etc... You should stop trying to people in little boxes and realize that some folks do think for themselves. There are a lot of reasons why peole choose not to have children and I douby Co2 reduction is the primary concern.

[TheLxrose]

I am also a woman who had 3 c-sections. I had the first one because of after 12 hours of labor there were complications. Because my pelvis would not give I had to have my others by c-section. The c-section was a lot easier than the 12 hours labor. And I get to pick the dates.

You commented no matter what side of the aisle you're on asking this woman to sterilized was wrong I was just curios if it was the gov. instead of the insurance co. asking if it made a difference thats all.

[Smartassawhip]

My first one was after 63 hours of hard labor and complications. I never made it past 2 cent. Because of that I had no choice but to have the 2nd one that way and of course you get to pick the date because it is a scheduled surgery. I wish I could have done it naturally as women who do tend to bounce back faster. I wouldn't choose to have one even though the labor did suck big time. To me if the gov did it it would be just as wrong.

[TheLxrose]

If it were the government proposing this would you be for it?

Population is clearly an important factor, said Yvo de Boer, head of the U.N. Climate Change Secretariat, at U.N. talks trying to plan a new deal to combat climate change after 2012

The world's population increases by 1.5m each week and babies born in the UK will use more greenhouse gases during their lifetime than those born in the developing world.

Just curious

[Smartassawhip]

I have not even made up my own mind on this particular issue so I really can't answer that. I do know that we as human beings have become quite destructive and have abused our environment. I think we should stop.. although I am not sure we can fix what we have already done. We are all pretty much just along for the ride at this point.

[Smartassawhip]

Based on my experience here on youtube I would say that most (most not all) republican men hate women in general so perhaps that is why they don't care or find this alarming at all.

[Austinbit]

Thats the dumbest thing ive heard. Republicans tend to be more religious (in particular, christian). This leads to a great respect for women...

[Smartassawhip]

One would think so... but as I woman who meets a lot of men I can assure you that you are wrong. Apparently many of them who claim to be Christains leave that whole mindset behind as soon as they turn on their computers... although in real life they probably hide that side of themselves in order to conform to whatever they think is socially acceptable.

2010....vote all the Democrats OUT!!!!! 2012.....vote 0bama OUT!!!!!!

[rationalnow]

My thanks to Leader Boehner and the GOP for calling out the Democrats' lies and misconceptions about their health care reform plans! Americans do not want a public option because they know that plan will interfere with healh care quality and choice and cost them more money in the process. We must all continue to fight against this destructive public option. Everyone please get involved by going to Rep. Boehner's, the GOP's or the freedom project's websites to find out how you can help!

[rebelstang]

GO REP. Boehner GO!

Those folks don't know the meaning, they only want complete control and raise taxes at the same time.

Oh, yeah, gonna get CHANGE alright!

[Rhiannon003]

We don't want their healthcare scam. If dems push this through, I want it repealed once we get them voted OUT.

[herbs814]

Dems are so dishonest about their plans. They won't allow the bills to be posted online and they push to ram the bill through as fast as possible, even though the "benefits" aren't scheduled to go into effect until at least 2013. This is a power-grab for demoncrats at the expense of the American people and their exceptionally productive healthcare system.
