[reagaluna]

[sks997]

[sweetelesue]

Wake up and smell the fascism

[Yankhadenough]

Obama has to grow a set of balls and send in the National Guard to protect THE PEOPLE against these cop goon squads that are working for the insurance corporations

[oh2love4love]

my prayers are with you stacie.. I am so sorry that humans choosing to behave horribly have been a cause in harming your life.. I hope with all my heart that this will turn around for the sake of you and others that have similar stories as yours..

peace~

Healthcare demonstrators are dumb. They are too healthy. They get thrown in jail and end of story.

How to demonstrate: Bring your sick friends, make sure they don't have health insurance. Have them block the entrances. They will get arrested. Then they will receive free medical care while incarcerated. If released they will head right back and get arrested again until they are healed. One hundred cities do this for one week and healthcare reform will be initiated immediately.

lol, I don't think it would work that way..

@brubruboy You're going to have a really hard time getting anyone put in jail for longer than a few hours or day. And there's no way this will happen if you have massive amounts of people doing it. Prisons are very full and the punishment for these people are going to be a fine at most. Repeat offenders will more likely enter programs, instead of landing in a prison. Also, prison healthcare is state-mandated and there are huge differences in the quality of care inmates recieve prison to prison

You can't expect him to live decently making a piddly $28,620,000 a year...

I deplore the woman's situation but this video is a joke. She takes a page straight from Michael Moore in this "I'm just going to go bitch to some random CEO" type journalism, and it's disgusting she uses her children in it.

Any person who understands the laws of economics would understand that regulation makes things worse, not better. You can't just set a price ceiling for healthcare (in other words just make up a price you think is fair and go with it) and expect it to work. It doesn't.

[charlesinchargeofyou]

Anyone who understands the laws of economics would understand that having a public option could provide more competition with the insurance companies. Which we need desperately because they are raping our country to make an extra buck.

[petroglyphaholic]

Regulations makes things worse not better? I couldn't agree more. Lack of proper regulation surely made things better for Bernie Madoff, the mortgage industry...need I go on?

[EasyEs]

Yeah I feel for this women..but just because you don't vote for a reform bill doesn't mean you are an accomplice to murder.

The fact is Health care is a service like any other and tied to the laws of economics like any other.

In North America (I am Canadian) we have become accustomed to the idea that somehow this particular good and service must be innovative, effective, cheap and immediate, with out us the consumer making hard choices. Well if you don't some one else has to, that is reality.
