Apparently these newly elected assholes have forgotten the founding of this country. the federal government has no legal right to do ANYTHING with health care at all. Its time we all wake up to this neutered fascist dictatorship that is being forced down our throat. May all those bastards burn in hell.

ANTHONY,
The Senate Finance Committee just embarrassed America with it's bogus "Baucus" Bill;...disgusting!!!!!!!!!!
Please, Congressman, DO NOT Let that Piece of crap "Bill" get through the House.
WE NEED A SINGLE-PAYER SYSTEM, or at least a PUBLIC OPTION...
Stand your ground, Sir...
You are the only Democrat worth listening to...
SINGLE-PAYER or BUST.

afr99: give me one example of one, JUST ONE, republican in the house that's pushing any thoughtful or concise debate about healthcare reform. One example is all I'm looking for, because as closely as I've followed this debate, all I see is the entire GOP of the house crawling up Boehner's ass while whispering "no no no".

It may be nonsense, but not absolutely. Each state is different in what they permit service providers to do with "excess charges" not approved by CMS. Some prevent all such charges, others part, others none. If you are survivng in a state which permits excess charges, nonsense may be the only thing that may save you financially from this arbitrary arrangement.

Absolute nonsense. And this comes speaking from personal experience. Both of my parents had serious health problems. They are now deceased. But during the time dealing with their health problems, I never received a bill for a deductible, co-payment, or uncovered service provided them. In fact both my parents had a so-called "rider" from Blue Cross, which actually took over their Medicare. I had to drop this so-called program, and put them back on Medicare to get them treatment they needed.

From LA Times:
09-18-2009
A missile fired by a U.S. drone killed a top Al Qaeda operations chief and two other militant commanders in the volatile North Waziristan region.
From longjournalwar:
09-14-2009
A senior al Qaeda operative behind the 1998 attacks on the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania is believed to have been killed during a raid by covert forces in southern Somalia...US Special Forces.
Real soft, huh. There's more, but I'll stop here. Keep spewing your baseless rubbish.

Medicare requires private supplements because it only pays <50% of expenses, so most people will be bankrupted if all they have is Medicare.
If Medicare benefits are "expanded", premiums will be increased exponentially for those few with jobs to support those tens-millions without jobs living longer visiting hospitals + doctors + RX.
In order to accomodate these illogical numbers, Medicare would have 2b transmogrified into the kind of nightmare that would wake/sweat the FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER.

"I have to admit it was very exciting and it was great to finally prove conclusively that Barack Obama's sixth generation grand uncle was the Bishop of Ossory and a former provost of Trinity College who died in Kilkenny city at the Bishop's Palace in 1813. It is now the headquarters of the Heritage Council," found historian Gabriel Murray. His great-great-great grandfather on his mother's side, Fulmouth Kearney, was born and grew up there before emigrating to the U.S. in 1850.

It's too bad that we have been reduced to discussing a bill that has been so compromised by pandering to republicans and medical lobbyists. But thankfully Representative Weiner has continued to be a strong voice of reason. He takes his job as representative of the people seriously. Weiner 2012!
