That's why the republicans are so against this plan. It does save money and it will make them look really bad.

The Majority WANT a PUBLIC OPTION is the bill!!!

Obamacare was signed on March 2010 with 59% of the people disapproving according to a CNN poll. The CBO scored Obamacare on six years of coverage for 10 years of taxes, which is how the CBO showed the bill to be deficit neutral . It’s unconstitutional mandating all citizens to purchase health care. Even Pelosi said, “We have to pass the bill, so you can find out what is in it.” watch?v=KoE1R-xH5To It’s also meant to take over industry watch?v=p-bY92mcOdk

Why is the Central bank screwed up? Because it's run by the government. Anyone been to the DMV or any government office lately? WOW, how smooth and customer service oriented was that?

You can still pay in cash or check for services. It is to the advantage of the business to do so. Credit Card companies charge businesses a fee for every transaction, which doesn't happen with cash. Besides, if they say you have to pay with a credit card, they are rejecting the business of everyone who does not have one, which is stupid on their part because they make less money.

By the way, I agree that our central bank makes things worse. I think you need some kind of central banking facility, but our Fed is majorly screwed up. Why is it screwed up? Because the banks run it.

I do not want the insurance companies getting even more powerful because they will use that power to screw us over, capture their regulators and steal from our economy just like the banks have done. Power corrupts. The founding fathers believed in balances for power for good reason.

Banks are not as heavily regulated and their credit card business was basically deregulated. It is not voluntary because in order to rent a car or stay at a hotel now you need a credit card, and paying on time won't save you from the crazy fees they have been dreaming up. I think it was better back when it was harder to get credit so that people who didn't deserve it wouldn't make it more expensive for everyone, but that was also when the banks couldn't make it more expensive for everyone.

Why all the focus on Insurance companies?  They do not set the prices of health services, the providers do. All the insurance company does is pay the claims. I will agree, some companies will cherry pick policy holders in order to limit their risk. Wellmark in Iowa reported a few weeks ago, they paid out 94% and change from revenues to cover claims. The money to cover those claims has to come from somewhere.

Wrong, I have many friends who already draw from SSI and their just fine. It's the younger generation that we have to worry about. It's going to be reworked anyway so you don't know what your talking about.

One reason that it's going to go bankcrupt in a few years is that the baby boomer generation is getting to that age and there are alot of us.

The gov't knew about our number for years. This will be adjusted for the future
