  • Unhealthy debate? Is that the part where people say what you don't want to hear?

    How about Federally mandated as UnConstitutional. How do you like that as unhealthy?

  • Why is it titled "unhealthy debate" isn't this by the hill.com?

  • "illegal immigrants would get healthcare" so fucking what? so long as you are unable / willing to even "remove" them they should be entitled

  • cardin is another whore

  • I smell another civil war. Red states vs Blue States. Anyone agree?

  • We're all going to be a bunch of dumb tax slave peasants and that will be the fate of our children and grandchildren, if they survive the fascist regimes...

  • Where were all these folks who were worried about "losing their freedom" when the Patriot Act was passed?

  • They WERE!!!! The damned Patriot Act was used as the 9-11 cure all, and you were "UNPATRIOTIC" if you didn't pass it! The congress didn't even read the damn thing! The bipartisan corrupt criminal muthafukers on the take in congress are screwing the american people into the ground with the help of the global corporations who pay them off.

    Ron Paul was one of the only congressman who said NO on the Patriot Act. What does that tell you?

    You have been HAD, Obama is the fucking SAME as BUSH.

  • The bill isn't just vague, it promotes a policy that accelerates the death of the so-called unproductive in society, like the old, and the terminally ill.

  • you are a tool

  • the voice of america

  • cmstyz is a living contradiction. he/she complains that democrats don't provide any facts, and yet he/she has not provided one single portion of text from the bill and provided her/his insight or analysis of that text. it's so easy to just repeat the paranoia and fear-mongering tactics that the insurance industry has brainwashed you into saying, but to actually take your own time to read it and create a discussion, well, I guess you simply are not capable of that. I'd be glad to discuss the text

  • Would you prefer I offer you soundbites like establishment Dems?

    In case you hadn't noticed the Bill is HUGE (and vague)

    Rather than criticize me why not read it yourself? I provided a link and several alternative ideas for health care reform

    Then it wouldn't matter what assumptions you make.

    You'd know, just like I do, that the "Health Choices" Act is nothing more than a "Tax and Control" Act.

    Do the work and educate yourself.

  • Really bad title, but the video is excellent.

  • Right Wing idiots up to the same old tricks. Conning the stupid into mindlessly following their propaganda. It's "Iraq has WMD's" all over again!

  • Ask a supporter of the bill why he supports it and he'll repeat what he's been told by those who want to push it through.

    Ask someone who opposes the bill why and they'll list off passages from the bill and illustrate why they object.

    Who's "mindlessly following their propaganda?"

    As I always say, Read the Bill.

    When you do that you can enter a debate, but if you simply regurgitate what you're told and write off any objections with prescribed soundbites you're doing a disservice to yourself.

  • Whatever.

    Enjoy your box.

  • You can't see the forest for the trees. You are the one who lives in a box, you're so far down inside it & surround yourself with other brainless sheep that will repeat what the uneducated idiots on Fox News tell you to repeat, that you think you know the "facts". Do yourself a favor & challenge your own beliefs & what you are told. You'd be surprised at how gullible you've been for years. BTW, I used to be a naive republican who bought into the propaganda, until I educated myself.

  • You assume you have me figured out, but you don't.

    I voted for Obama, I'm not a Republican (or a Democrat - they're the same "team")

    I don't watch fox, I'm not Christian, I don't own guns, I don't support Palin or Limbo, Hannity, or any other media instigator (like Maddow and Olbermann). I don't even have TV but I read constantly from any and all sources.

    You're attempting to place me in the same box you reside in to negate my words.

    Play that game all you want, but you're lying to yourself.

  • I am not playing a game.

    I am not an "establishment democrat" - which sound bite did you get that term from? I am not a republican. I assume you are libertarian, as you think government is too big, and as the richest nation in the world, we should not care for our own citizens when big corporations like the health insurance industry are fucking them up the ass.

    I do not have time to read every single line of the House bill. By the way, there are 2 bills, not 1. I trust Obama to do what he says

  • This message and the above message are for cmstyz. I have read portions of the bill, specifically those portions that morons are proclaiming reveal info about so-called death panels, etc. They are sheep repeating things when they obviously have not read those portions. The bill is not vague. In fact, there are things that will benefit the pharmaceutical and health insurance industry, so it is not some one-sided socialistic "people's" bill. I am sure it has faults. But this is the first stage.

  • You and I disagree darkstar.

    Let's just leave it at that.

  • Actually, you have yet to do show me a line or section from one of the bills to explain to me the problem that you yourself, not people you listen to, have with the health bills. I have already said I am sure it has faults. I just want one person to quote from the bill instead of being a mouthpiece for the mobs, the groupthink masses, and the conspiracy theorists. Show me where your problems are and then we can decide if we agree or disagree. Until that happens, you are no different than every1.

  • You think that this isn't supported by the enormous healthcare industry?You are FOOLING YOURSELF.

    Under a the current FASCIST GOVENRMENT WE HAVE, you trust government to run it?THEY WILL BE HAVING YOU DO CoMPULSORY SCREENING and drugging!but now just like the scam they have set up with welfare,they will still be in cahoots with corporations and the government will be buying from the corporations and paying the hospitals out of your tax dollars! How would you like to pay an extra $2000 permonth?

  • You are the foolish one if you have not realized that all this bullshit about death panels, rationed care, socialism, nazism, fascism, communism, and loss of our liberty is not the talking points that the health insurance industry gave to Fox News to use as their usual scare tactics to scare the senile, the uneducated, the sheep who only follow the crowd, and the stupid and naive, all of which are the demographics of Fox News. B4 u use "fascist' u better know what it means. U paranoid mob member

  • While I agree & support your statement about reading over the bill carefully even though it's dry as heck. However like all things in life or as an old saying goes "you can please some of the people some of the time but you can't please all the people all the time" which means not everything in this bill is going to go in your favor, it's a matter of what you as a person will let go or say it's do able. I have read most of the bill on my free time & don't like everything either but support it.

  • I think that it is not quite on the level of just "not quite liking all of it, but alot of it was ok.." simply because the "not quite liking" parts were things that eat your liberty, permanently....and lead to things that eat liberty even more so. Like the idea of eliminating jurorers in medical malpractice cases, but leaving it you vs the government.

  • *Jurors

  • Like Bush said, "Fool me once, (shame on, uh... uh..) won't get fooled again."

    We endured Bush, but we will NOT endure or accept what Obama presents as "change." I thought he would make things better, not worse...

    Good video, but it would have been nice to hear the answers to the questions as well. I know it would have been stammering, lies, and avoidance, but it's only fair.

    Read the bill everyone.

  • Have YOU read the bill cmstyz??

    Give me one single example of a FACT you know about the healthcare bill that will make things worse. There is your challenge. I know you're online because you just left this message. You should be able to back up your proclamation immediately with a real example. I don't want to hear the bush***t Fox News talking points and death panels, etc. I want something that is really in the bill. I will take your non-response as meaning you know nothing & are a follower.

  • Read the bill yourself - I'm not going to work for you - only a 500 character limit anyway. Here's the one I'm working from: frwebgate. access.gpo. gov/cgi-bin/getdoc. cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&doci­d=f:h3200ih. txt. pdf ...ideas: online.wsj. com/article/SB2000142405297020­4251404574342170072865070. html ...ideas: market-ticker. org/archives/1310-Fixing-Healt­h-Care-A-Real-Solution. html ...ideas: /watch?v=zESK4Qz3L4c /watch?v=KHN4dxNgPAU Reform is necessary - HR3200 doesn't provide that
  • (remove spaces in the URL's)

  • I like that Market Ticker plan. Denninger is a smart guy.

    Thank you for the link and remember that you cannot satisfy everyone. They'll believe whatever they want and that is as it should be.

    I've seen your posts around and you've convinced me to read the bill.

    :)

  • Well that's cool.

    That's all I would hope for.

    This thing will dramatically affect our lives and I don't think it should be taken lightly, or be jumped into without fully considering it (and any alternatives)

    You don't just throw a bill on the table and pass it because it's called a "reform" bill...
