This is a joke, we need to get rid of the profit making insurance companies.

@atgmam: Oh, the poor poor corporations that never take advantage of the public? The financial institutions and health insurance companies, they are just so innocent are they? Law suits only constitute a small fraction. If Canada and other countries can sell drugs cheap so can we. If the government doesn't go to bat for the middle class these big corporations will take over! And if you think Exon mobile and Pfizer is gonna be fair to the little guy think again.

Just like government, blame business for the high prices

The US Judicial System is the reason why our premiums are so high. Doctors and business owners have to defend themselves from frivolous law suits. That is why we pay so much for health care.

The Government will never take blame for what has happend, it will just create a new reform or bill to cover up the real reason America is failing.

Want a better way of life? It takes personal responsibilty and LESS government control

Health care is a luxury. If you want or need it, work for it.

Is this the American way, take what you want from other American tax payers.

@CoolScoobydoo And thats why one of our first priorities once in power, is to slow down and even stop immigration. If we (Conservatives, tea party) can stop immigration, we wont have to worry about becoming too diverse, and then we wont have to go socialist. As you know, blacks are very socialist and have entitlment mentality.

Obama should have never tried to woo Republicans at the beginning after the election in regards to healthcare reform. He should have fought harder for the public option and lead better. He will not get reform in his first term now. He may have to go back to bits and pieces of healthcare like pre-existing condictions, not dropping people if they get sick, tort reform. This bill fails 210-223.

I don't think that the healthcare bill will get passed, the no votes for the democrats are piling up. It took too long. The GOP won the healthcare message by talking about it is going bankrupt the U.S., the government take over, and death panels. A shot at healthcare form that is bipartisan will not happen in like 20-25 years when the country is more cultural diverse and progressive.

Yes, Healthcare reform! Whats in it? Mo Gov Jobs and salaries to pay. If you work at fast food stores, cashiers, bartenders, waitersget out your checkbook and ready to pay. Uncle Obama needs more of your paycheck to pay for his new Gov Staff. If you dont pay you go to jail, simple.

We all pay for the DMV for life. Now, add DHS (Department of Healthcare Services) to your bills. Hand off my paycheck!!! Enough, Enough

Thank you for paying our salaries, sign Union.
