The fight to improve/expand health care has been going on for almost a century and I fear that it will be another century before comprehensive reform is enacted, so I support the Dems moving forward on this, with or without the other party.
-
Thoughtful response and appreciated and yes the American people DO want this to get done notwithstanding the fringe elements who think by yelling loud they have support. Also, please return the filibuster rule to its form. Make them read phone books! No more rolling over to the Repubs that want to stop everything!
-
Americans must act now, the health care reform should be pass. if this bill did not pass in the next 5 years after, the global economy will pass out and the new system will be brought out, currency will change. In the next 10 years ahead level of diseases will increase because of the overwhelming climate changes and green system should begin immediately. to those middle classes who could now afford medical expenses will suffer if this bill does not pass. Tax payers deserve proper healthcare.
-
Whatever it takes! Pass it. Ram it through reconciliation. It's a disgrace that we Americans allow tens of thousands of people die every year. Do something right by the American people.

Healthcare should be a right? This means that others are obliged to provide that care. Why do believe it is acceptable that people are entitled to the products and services of others because they need them? You are deliberately weaseling around the issue by saying "Americans should be able to get care (paid for or not)", omitting the fact that American doctors and insurers are a subset of Americans. I will state your omittion: "Americans should provide care (paid for or not)".

Boo!! People can go to the hospital any day and get health care because hospitals can't refuse service. If they cannot pay for their own health care it is not the responsibility for the government do everything for them and pay all their bills. Americans don't want greater national debt and spending more money doesn't help!

I think that he hit dead on about alot of issues that are holding back health . =care reform from being passed as soon as possible. He was right when he brought up the social secrurity act . I for one would love the see the health-care reform bill be passed
-
Keep up the fight. The American people need you. Please tell the party to stop caring about the threat of their job and stop serving the interest of big corporations and selling that off as personal freedom.
It blows me away how Republicans can vote to spend trillions of dollars to bail out banks and war and then penny pinch when it comes into investing in ourselves. We can't keep struggling with this issue. It is time to move passed this. -Publius

I am happy to say that my wife and I have no health insurance. We live in Nevada and we are 60 years old. The insurance companies and their lobbyists and the greedy politicians are the ones ruining our society.

Health care is a right--really Harry? Who gives the right to us? According to our founders, our unalienable rights include life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The U.S. government does NOT give us rights. According to the founders of this nation, people are "endowed by their Creator" with these rights, one of which was not health care. So Harry, a question--who gives people the right to health care? If you can answer that, which you can't, I'll begin to listen to you.
