Rep. Pete Stark, ranking member of the House Ways and Means Health Subcommittee, speaks on the floor of the House about the dangers of repealing the health reform law.
the GOP agenda = spend like crazy on things that yields no return for the middle (illegal wars) and give out tax cuts to the weallthy and the poor and run this country into debt, then when DEM come into power after the economy crumbles, scream "savings, spending cuts!" so the rich who have their millions in tax cuts can wallow in it, and the rest of us middle and poor and just take it up the rear. FUCKEN GOP, it's time some crazy Ayn Rand reading punk go shoot republicans for screwing up gov

Who is paying for these adults to not work, get married, go to grad school, have babies, & volunteer? What happens to grads working part-time & struggling to find full-time employment? Seems like a hand-out to families who can pay all their children’s expenses. The rich!
(Continued) parents’ coverage if they do not work, or are not offered a health plan on their job. So why are recent graduates who are working part-time struggling to find a full-time job in this depressed economy, paying off student loans, living at home and dependent on their parents, and paying a good portion of their meager income to pay for substandard health care, excluded from this provision until 2014?
Until 2014, The Affordable Care Act allows young adults under 26 to be added to parent coverage except if they are eligible for group coverage even through part-time employment. Most employers w/ 50 > employees must offer health care. Not quality insurance, not even low cost options. It does not matter if they make minimum wage & pay excessive amounts for extremely low quality insurance. A young adult can be married, not live with you, not financially dependent on you & be covered by their
