  • He should have been our governor! BEST MAN EVER!!!

  • and now he wants to be my govener

  • Health care is a privilege? Funny how hateful schmucks like this run on Christian based platforms. If there really is a God I hope he hates assholes like Zach Wamp.

  • having been without healthcare for almost my whole life and now turning that savings on to paying for my college classes I can honestly say I do not want healthcare, I want the governments hand out of my pocket and NO I do not get tenncare. I avoid hospitals like the plague. Now I will be the worlds healthiest FRY COOK since I am being forced to buy healthcare. Thank you all for the American dream.

  • I pray this idiot doesn't get governor.

  • We need the free clinics back (Yes we had free health care clinics in the 50's)and Tenn Care could be available to all TN citizens. Instead of Tenn care recipients going to the emergency room for a cold at a cost of over $1000 visit, if they were directed to one of the many inexpensive private clinics, the cost would be under $100. Tenn Care costs would be sliced and more CITIZENS would be eligible at a major reduction of state funding requirements.

  • This is my Congressman, Zack YOU SUCK. And for the Governor's job your running for Ya like hell. Why don;t you tell us how much blue cross paid you for your NO Vote

  • The problem in Massachusetts is that there is a public option but there are hardly any doctors. Just like with Medicare, the providers know they are going to get left holding the bag.

  • No, people afford what they can afford. For example, I want to afford a house, but I sure as hell can't. Even with houses being the lowest they will likely ever be in my lifetime, I would not be able to make the monthly payments. I want to, but no matter how hard I try to stretch my dollars, I can't. It is not possible.

    47 million people in this country live like I do: paycheck to paycheck. Health insurance is out of their reach because of price, not choice.

  • In Massachusetts, people are forced to buy private health insurance, but there is no public option. It's a mess because there is no price controls. All the insurance companies talk, share stats, and price fix together. A public option, paid for by all the people that are part of it, would be real competition for them. That is why the insurance companies are fighting it. They do not want the competition from a nonprofit.
