  • Thanks for uploading, pink, and thank you for your calm, common-sense question. Can't say the same for some of the other people there. I'm looking forward to finally having health insurance. I was born with a so-called "pre-existing condition" and I can't wait to get any form of meaningful healthcare due to this bill.

  • regulation is sooo much cheaper than a gov funded health plan. I too have a pre-existing, and would welcome some tort reform too - but not this bloated bill. Lets have a do-over.

  • Lets do some they all under stand if they vote for this heath care plan lets throw them out of office they no longer are listening to us Iowa

  • I dunno, but if you're going to go to a meeting that you know will be filled with concerned citizens, don't you think you ought to know the subject matter thoroughly. This poor guy really stumbled through this thing. It became apparent that he didn't even read the 1300 plus page bill fully while those in the audience did. So how can you sell something you don't know anything about? Just on talking points? Good luck.

  • And they will not ever answer the question, just shoot down the questioner, acuse you of racism and murdering kittens without even knowing you. I just hope they fight as poorly as they argue when it comes down to it.

  • Google it. Private donations from citizens in relation to GDP for the US easily found online if you look past the bits of info you use to base your unfounded claims upon. If you think I will help a little fucktard like you after you insulted me you can suck my sack you stinky, puss filled douchebag. I have personally donated thousands of dollars to charity, have you?

    Go move to france if you want big brother up your ass. If you think for a minute we will sit by and watch you are sadly mistakn

  • your evidence for that statement is where?

    obvously from your account you are a righ wing nutjob

  • As citizens we donate more than any other country, twice as mush as europeons. Our government has to do less because we do more and that is what this whole country is about if you didn't know.

    That means other countries are FORCED by their government to donate and their citizens donate less and this it in direct relation to GDP. So you are the fucking idiot for not doing your homework before becoming some phony righteous moron.

  • Eve, I disagree. You are not allowing for charitable PRIVATE donors. The statistics you reference only measure official gov giving. There are additional statistics that account for the Private donors that show that in % to income, American giving far outweighs their European counterparts.

  • Noise - Are you a fucking idiot?

    America is one of the lowest donators in rescources by GDP percent in the 1st world.

    So you are againt socialism but pro isolationism? Thats anti capitalistic to.

    Education is ftw.

  • LIAR!! His statement about postal employees having his insurance is a bald faced lie! Postal employees insurance is NOT payed for by TAXPAYERS. Postal employees pay their own, just like anyone else in a private company. And Harkin's insurance is NOT run by government. His insurance is PRIVATE INSURANCE paid for by TAXPAYERS!

  • That is why they attack the messenger.
