Go get them Congressman Ellison, although I think the Insurance company's should have nothing to do with health care for this reason, look at all the people that got screwed in New Orleans by the Insurance company's. Just that alone is proof that the Insurance company's cant not be trusted with something that is this important to every one in the country.

lois capps is a disgrace and a tyrant...

our founding fathers warned of us people like this.. and yet we still fail to listen!

Open your ears and eyes and look at these democrat tyrants driving state by state into disaster and ruining the futures of our children and grandchildren...

You people better wake up, the men who built this country gave YOU the power to stop this. The greedy power hungry soetoro, reid and pelosi must be stopped before it is too late

Mcdermott is clueless. He doesn't know what insurance is.  "They won't have any way to choose who they to take care of, anybody that comes in the door they gotta take care of, and that's gonna make it hard for them to compete with the public option". If's going to make them insolvent you moron and then they won't have money to pay legitimate claims. Insurance is a financial product based on risk and premium payment. Why don't they just create a pool for certain high risk pools? Marxists?

Forcing the purchase of insurance is conversion if not seizure. Useful idiots

believe government is going to care for them. Health care isn't the issue, it's about liberty being eroded by rogue politicians. This is no longer a democratic republic when payola is used to pass law or non-elected officials

like czars or EPA goons dictate policy by arbitrary order or decree. "A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have". Thomas Jefferson

Good work masking the "Cloward-Piven Strategy" as health care reform! The system is now well on it's way to being overwhelmed. Mommy and daddy big government is going to take care of me! I can't wait for my energy cost's to "necessarily skyrocket" so we can save the unicorns and fund more big government with another derivatives scam! The TARP slush fund is doing it's job paying out twice the amount to Democratic districts. My kid's kids will pay for your immoral spending. Got Constitution?

affordable psychologists/psychiatrists to treat the nutjobs before they kill or hurt people.

free psychology needs to be a part of the public option

This video makes the public option sound good. Too bad it's all lies.
