Pfft "Big Health Insurance", "Big Medical" and "Big TObacco" is in bed witht eh politicians in DC
The only one the activists and the politicians don't fuck with is "BIg Liquir" cause when they tried to pull that lawsuit bullshit on "BIg Liquer like they did for"BIg TObacco" (that just rolled over and played ded) "Big Liquer"threw the constitution on the table and told them they are violating the free trade,and right to buy/sell.own property regardless of ags,sex race,creed(sound familiar?)

No, Neither the State or the Feds has any right to tell me
1) Which Doctor I can see
2) How much that doctor can Charge
3) Wether or not I buy a Health Maintanence plan (HMO)
4) Wether or not I buy Life or Health Insurance(which is not HMO,it's like betting on weather nor not I get certain disabilities)
5) How much I should pay the ddoctor or how much he/she can charge me
6) How,Where and when a doctor can treat mo
Government is why Medicine costs so much in first place

The commodification of human health is fundamentally a good thing in that allows stakeholders to extract value from policy holders in exchange for truncated service

Could have had more animated speaking, but...
Hear, hear! The federal government has no constitution authority to make these kinds of decisions. More state power now!

all failing government services. I am sick of the taxpayer having to pay for the government's careless spending. We must stop the bleeding now!

Second, Our health care system is without question the best in the world. Are reforms in order? Yes. Regulations could be enacted to benefit the customer, but creating a public option should be out of the question. Health Care is a business and the government has proven time and time again that it can only stay afloat as an industry by taxing American citizens. Look at Medicaid, Social Security, the Post Office, and Amtrak...

To Phillipmarch22, you are right, the Heritage Foundation is saying that we as Americans should have the right to choose our healthcare and as you said, we do already have that ability. On all accounts, you are right. But you seem to be missing the point. If Obama's Health Care bill is passed, many Americans will lose that right. Furthermore, the bill in practice will be a bureaucratic nightmare. Health Care will suffer and many Americans will suffer. Health Care must remain privatized

I bet the big Health Insurance and Big Medical industry love heritage foundation.

I would suggest that if you don't have a doctor then you should find one I have one that I have been to a few times at an urgent care center. He is very sympathetic about the insurance. All I had to do is explain what was going on and ask him. He didn't hesitate! Also he office staff can call and get it too.
Hope this helps you.

Health care in NOT here for us now, so WTF are you talking about? The GOP thinks that in order to qualify to live is to have a job.! Socialized medicine is music to my ears. If you like your private insurance company, I guarantee you that you have not submitted a major claim!

We might have the best healthcare in the world if you are rich! The insurance companies is who has to go! In a normal free market interprise, this is how it works. You go to your local hardware store to buy a hammer. The cost: $20. So, then you go to Home Depot and find the same hammer for $15. With health insurance companies all they do is compete to RAISE prices and deny care! They have had plenty of time to get their shit together. Hillary care failed and they got cocky! Off with their heads!
