I'm a Republican and I support the public option. Anything is better than paying these high cost. They are financially breaking many families.

Healthcare reform, how about Jailing American reform. Our right to spend our $ vs Jail time. Don't mess with Uncle Obama!!!!

[yesilike101]

Yes, healthcare. Ready or not its going to pass. But what comes with it. Dont tell anybody but Mo Govt. employees with salaries.  Take out your checkbook America, you are paying for their salaries like you do for the DMV. Dont pay go to jail. So shut up and pay our salaries. Remember, there 4 millions new excellent workers that want to get pay. So pay on time else Incarerated

Death panel?

Too old to marry, too young to bury. This statement was made by a dying grandmother. She applied for govt. healthcare in Feb 09. Her case got delayed until Dec 09. She received hospice care in Dec 09 and suddenly her govt. healthcare got approved. You see, its cheaper to pay for hospice care than to pay for treating cancer. Furthermore once you received hospice care, all other treatment halted. There you have it. The govt. saved money by letting a sick woman die.

public option death: a medical condition whereupon whose symptoms include millions of dollars to congressmen, visual and audio distortions in the masked media, and misinformation, disinformation, half lies and have you ever seen a canadian put down canadian health care? its always some u.s. "expert"

like the "experts" on the middle east. i dont hate israel, but the warmonger machine that wants to eat iran next...beware! the terrorists are not totally who you think. war is about making money!

I believe if they do not offer a public option , then the thing we need to do is change the campaign laws where these politicians get millions from the Medical Industry ...therefore there is no incentive for them be the leaders they were elected to represent.....There should be NO bill with out a public option period

[zrac09]

public option's only problem is the entrenched insurance companies economic interest, period. max bacchus got over 3 million dollars from lobbyists...

this is not a complex issue, just hard core control of the congress and most media

by millions of corporate dollars.

Are you kidding me? People read the Rasmussen polls. A clear majority of people in America are Happy with their Health Care and are not willing to pay for Health Care reform. Those that vote for this sham will pay for it in 2010.

I'd love to see that myself, but I think someone in a relevant committee pulled a Pelosi and said that single payer was "off the table".
