Hi JP, There is a very good class on video posted on user mikeshanklin's youtube home page, once you watch this class then you will understand everything that is going on right now. America is not perfect but the foundation is strong as long as citizens understand the Constitution.search user" mikeshanklin constitution " Then tell others. you remind me of the woman who warned me about the communists when I was a boy.

Jessica The H.C. coverage in Mass actually has failed... Reported on 9-4-09 there were roughly 200,000 w/o coverage with those that have become unemployed opting out of their coverage to save costs but loosing a deduction on their taxes. Also, there's the large deductibles and high co-pays that makes affordability hard for many. Then there's the costs to Mass... 2007 it cost 630 Million and estimated at 1.3 Billion for 2009! For many, this has not worked out to be a good deal!

We already have govt funded insurance for all. We passed it while Romney was governor. People love it and it takes the worry away that if you lose your job or if you can't find a job you won't have coverage.

If we as a state can accomplish this with a republican governor and a liberal house it is possible for all.

Xldut, This has been tried in Mass years ago and it's proven to be a disaster! And under the current plan being discussed, the Congressional Budget Office report to Charles Rangle states that for most people, the current plan will have ONLY a 10% savings in premiums over private carriers!

ONLY 10%!

And.... the additional costs to the taxpayers will still increase the Federal Deficit by at least a TRILLION dollars. So, you save 10%, but then get your taxes raised?

Where's the savings?

I am so so sorry for your lose. I have been in the same place with a grandmother who died too earlier due to undiagnosed cancer.

I would like to get information and answers about the the "other" sections of the HC reform bill.

I want to know what else is in HC reform bill.

Americans need some assurance that this reform will also addresses the current state of care and fix the problems so that no one else will becomes a victim of HC and what happened in your family never happens again

I understand where your coming from but who has the right to choose who gets treatment and who doesn't cause that's what this system boils down to. My grandmother passed away from cancer in a socialized health care system because she had to wait 8 months for anything to be done, and no she didn't make it to the 8th month. Why is it that leaders of countries with socialized health care come to the US to get treated? " A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing"

I totally agree with your comment. It isn't one group or the other in Washington. Lobbyist (insurance) fill those folks pockets and now feel they own them. All of them need to listen to the people that put them there!

thank you

[jessicapeanut]

I don't know how much you make but the only people who will get a tax hike are people who earn more than $350,000 a year

U make a good point. The Repubs missed a good opp. We should have done better. It is a good thing to get this on the table. It should be a bipartisan bill. This is our country. Not Dem Or Republican. Organized politics has slowed the growth of this country. To often our elected reps do what they want and not what is best for the people they rep. To much lobby influence. We need to take on the lawyers. I believe this has brought out the anger finally.

This is really a good thing. Speak out USA.
