Several others in the audience then spoke out in favor of a single-payer system before being removed from the hearing room.

  • Kind of funny that republicans want to take away our power to vote.

  • If you are one of the people who think healthcare is just fine the way it is,i hope you get very sick & lose your,& all your family's,assets

  • the only way, avg working citizens like, like those who make minimum wage or those who make 50K a year, etc. have a real voice for change is by voting in representatives who will give a damn about what we want....the GOP don't want you TO EVEN HAVE ANY POWER OF REPRESENTATION, they falsely interpret the Constitution as some narrow document with "limited" powers...yet those are broad, vague limited powers that affect everything. GOP wants rich to run this country as RICH sees fit

  • what assholes

  • America could pay for the healthcare bill if they taxed the churches on real estate alone.....

  • fuck this cunt

  • some insurance companys that you faught so bravley for, cut children off completely just to avoid the pre existing conditions. "dont tread on me" tread on your kids, it will effect mostly white families now blame it on obama for being racist

  • @IowaArmen really is that so .. I beg to differ with you .. have you actually seen people dying in the streets in this country .. I work in health care and if anything I constantly see people being kept alive against their will... tube feedings and the like.. no quality of life there..

  • medicare is a single payor system.. and look at it.!!. I am scared to death because I am getting close to the age when I will be forced into medicare..
