GET RID OF THE INSURANCE COMPANIES. That's the dominant theme in the Citizen's Briefing Book. Can you say Single Payer Tom? HR676 is the bill. You ask people what the want and then you ignore them. It's all a show.

[masterhook]

as someone with out health coverage at all I know that even a federal universal health care plan, as bad as it may be, would be better then what I have now. If I was really to get sick what the hell am I to do. The cost of going to see someone is so bad that I may not go to the doc right away and make it even worse. This is what is clogging up ER rooms and putting millions of us into bankruptcy. We need to rethink how we do thing and get us going the right way, right now we are not

[Devourer09]

Obviously you weren't aware, so I had to point it out to you.

America's Health Insurance Plans and the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, are PUBLIC HEALTH ENEMIES NO.1 & 2. AHIP represents an administratively burdensome middleman industry. There is no moral basis for including them in a health care system. PhRMA represents an industry with over-priced products. They have obstructed efforts to ensure reasonable costs plus fair profits for drugs. With SINGLE PAYER, we get rid of the first and bargain collectively with the second.

You're the one who's centering the conversation on punctuation. Out of everything I said, you focused in on that one sentence. Now you just look like a rambling idiot.

[beeohhski]

again with the punctuation point out something else if you want to look cool or next time ill mispell everything and not form complete sentances like type the first word last then the last word and everything in between but backwards to where even clicking the comment to see what it says will be another waste of 20 minutes trying to figure out what i typed

Thank you, Dr. Obvious.

[Devourer09]

Maybe because it's not an important topic for him to be focusing his time on right now...

[Devourer09]

Lol?

[d0861]

Um, okay. Well since your last comment was twice as long as your first one, I'd estimate that you could have used about 100 punctuation marks and still would have had enough room to "talk shit." Again you categorize me; this time as being either racist or extremely wealthy. I can assure you that I am neither. I am a supporter of the Constitution, liberty and an individual's rights. Mr. Obama simply seems to share a different ideology.
