Opponents of Governor Pawlenty's veto of health care for the poorest Minnesotans are asking the Governor's neighbors to call him and ask him to change his mind. Literature from the DFL organized group says the Governor's "pledge to far right-wing Washington politicians is hurting Minnesota's economy - and Minnesota's families.

  • no, it has a responsibility to keep it's people free.

  • The idea that people will not be able to buy alternative plans or supplement plans is a fabrication by the insurance industry to fool people like you.

    They do not want to be forced to accept people with pre-existing conditions, or be forced to do anything else fair that other industries have to.

  • Fight poverty- get a job, you freeloading bums! The world doesn't owe you a living, a house, entertainment, or doctor's bills, so if you want them, get off your lazy asses & WORK for them like the rest of us do.

  • @1978RDC21 I agree. Did you hear about Jason Lewis' new book? I'm going to the signing today.

  • You're really comparing Walmart to health insurance companies?? If you really want to converse with me let's talk apples to apples friend. Walmart doesn't currently provide health insurance to my knowledge. As much money as they make it doesn't seem to be enough according to you so maybe they should! Anyone can see the business to be in is health insurance - your profits are limited to nothing but care approval!!

  • I'll only answer your question. When a health insurance company is "for-profit," you get the dilemma we're dealing with now - denials for pre-existing conditions or whatever they decide to deny you for, insurance premiums that grow 2 times faster than health care costs and 3 times faster than wages, being under covered so your out-of-pocket expenses force you into bankruptcy. NO insurance should be for-profit, that includes your vehicles. Thanks President Nixon for our current health care crisis

  • What is the incentive for a company if it is non profit? Walmart makes more money than the big Health care companies combined.

    The average profit margin is 3.3%. Medicare is the largest insurance denier in the US, and its fraudulent waists exceed health care companies profits. Just try to rationalize a little bit.

  • I fart in your general direction.

  • I laugh at you

  • You should have paid attention in school.

  • Tulane is hardly public CUNT
