Health Care

Were not too far apart shawnwwe, lets just hope our politicians create a clean bill that actually works for a change, instead of creating another huge bloated govt dept that the people have no say in. But based on some of the plan I read so far, the insurance companies are still part of the game unfortunately.

YES, The insurance companies will be still in charge.even though they call it government plan.the people in charge are still "profit making" private insurance companies,alot of folks dont realize. There are so many doctors who went to Congress to confess,what insurance companies pay them,if they let a patient die or don't suggest them surgery,its sad,but still congress lets it happen, because they get paid more.Drug & Insurance companies run and control congress and our country,literally!

It was far from a blowout and I'm guessing he is going to have a hard time getting re-elected if he keeps shoving bail outs down our throats. And I didn't care for Bush neither, if anything Ron Paul would have been a perfect president this time around, but getting the nutjobs who still think their parties represent them to vote differently, is like pulling teeth. Americans are waking up and starting to protest. Don't believe the news that these are paid people. They are not.

I'm against it (currently) because of the lazy way our politicians have tried to notify the public. If they could have passed it before recess, they would have, but they couldn't due to dems holding out. They don't want us to know what the plan is about, its how govt works and no different than them giving away trillions of dollars to banks, and then holding out on who they gave it to.

If they come clean and its a good plan WE CAN AFFORD, then I'd be for it. Until then, no.
