NONPARTISAN PERSPECTIVE: How many people are going to die before these politicians make up their minds about a meaningful healthcare system for te United States?

This is a 50-year, bi-/tri-partisan "conversation" that they can afford to have because they have healthcare benefits. Stop letting them push us into partisan camps and demand ACTION from these, these ...bureaucratics.

You are already paying for it....in police and prisons and emergency room visits, and guess who is really getting the paycheck...a health care INDUSTRY that marks it up 200%.

health care that looks like a government run system that we're all too familiar with? like the dmv or the irs?! are those doing poorly or something, of course people don't like those, they are annoying as shit to have to deal withm how about government run programs like the DOT, public schools, or agricultural subsidies that allow us access to cheaper food, yeah those are terrible

and catholicslovetruth, are you implying the government wants to systematically starve the elderly, straighten up

[CatholicsLoveTruth]

Warning! This Health Care Bill (H.R.3200) will kill the elderly! Read pages 425 - 430. The care for the elderly will decrease as their age increases.Eventually a committee will decide WHEN and HOW the vulnerable senior dies! They will be extremely rationed and may or may not receive nutritional needs! WAKE UP FOLKS, THIS IS ELDERLY EUTHANASIA! This will eventually affect YOU, as we all get older. Contact your Senators, and pass the word. (God help our country.)

The top 3% ultra rich Washington power base are trying to divide the work force and the middle class, right to work states and union busters are dragging down wages, benefits the political power for all the middle class and people are brainwashed in to thinking its a good thing. The current Wal-Mart economic model is driving the middle class in to debt, and out of jobs. Yes we need to have reform across the board, and we will not get it if we let the 3% guys divide us.

Free markets are good, but what we have is a free to go one way market that pools the wealth at the top.

you have no idea what a doctor has to go through with the government regulations just to treat people. My son is a doctor . If the government would just get out of the way . Healthcare would come down. a bit of info here. High cost of medical is also due to law suits that are false . has NOTHING to do w/ Dems or Repubs. It the folks who are living free off welfare that ALL tax payers are paying for.

I don't have insurance , never have. But I always paid and never had a problem. Thanks

GDP is what provides jobs. Its important and many people care about it.

[jfkjrlover]

WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT GDP!!? Is it just so you can feel smug and superior that you HAVE TO live in the wealthiest nation!? Hello! What counts is the quality of life for the citizens and places in Europe have much happier people than here and their GDP is less!

[jfkjrlover]

You evil piece of shit! No wonder dumb fuck white Americans are so against universal health care!! In the minds of white Americans they see someone of color when they think of a poor person and since they feel no connection to non-white people and since so many dumb hicks like you are racist, they don't feel compassion for those people nor do they want to help make society better for all. Blacks and hispanics are people just like you, asshole!

Yeah blood, sweat and tears! Boo hoo! I sit in an office 40 hours a week and type! Or how about teachers!? Boo hoo! I sit when I want and barely move around and my classes (if I teach college) last no more than 3 hours! Ouch! Lots of other jobs can be used for example. The only ones who actually DO sweat and sometimes bleed are construction workers and those with similar, manual labor jobs, so don't give me that crap! How 'bout retail workers who have to stay on their feet but can't afford care?
