  • Unka Dano says:

    Veterans health care has been quite good. Btw, why didn’t the GOP help shape this bill instead of letting us all be in danger of ending up with something we don’t like?

  • Quan says:

    That’s a bad comparison. This HCR bill wouldn’t get them as involved in the private health insurance market as they are with veterans care.

  • Mr. Anderson says:

    The federal government cannot make a citizen buy something simply they exist don’t believe me look it up 10 amendment and the commerce clause. This bill rapes and prostitutes our Constitution the only thing that is true and good in this country anymore. ” America has no king no dictator The king of America is to be the rule of the Constitution it’s crown is to lay atop the citizens of the country”.Thomas Paine

  • Water Good Soda Bad says:

    insurrence companies are not doing all that great either to be honest

  • Luke says:

    For the millionth time: THERE IS NO PUBLIC OPTION IN THIS BILL. All this bill simply does is mandates health insurance for those who can afford it (like car insurance) and makes it more affordable for those who currently cannot get it. This is not government take over at all and it doesn’t matter if they would or wouldn’t do a better job because they aren’t going to control it

    If the bill passes i will perdict unemployment will drop.because the people own a business will let allot of people go because the can’t afford to py each employee’s health care.Small business will close.people making over a certain amount will have to pay a person owning his own business makes $ 250,000.00yr
    doesn’t mean that’s in his bank because after he pay off ad’s,Equipment,supplies, and employee’s he is not making nearly as close to it.add the health care he won’t have enough to invest in their own Company or business including hiring extra employee’s.doctor will struggle with health care too they have to almost fight the assurance company now to get their money they earned allot of people will go to the hospital for the littlest thing like a cough because they have health care .i don’t have health care so the only time i go is when i have to.allot of people will have to wait longer on appointments.setting them days advanced
    Also causing more stress on doctors to move more quickly to next person causing more mistakes.Also possibly increasing insurance farad.Or even making tax payer pay for someone else insurance like a person receiving treatment for drug over doss or accident like a drunk drives hospital bill for a night of drinking a childhood smoker that’s 60 and still smokes having cancer.or obsessed people having heart attack. we the people will be pay for people that make bad choices that more then like won’t change.because they will care less about their health because they have insurance.Forcing people to pay for other insurance isn’t right.
    What i think we should do is have the people vote like we do when voting for president instead of have people vote for what they think we want .before voting tell and show the people(like a debate) the pros’ con’ and other ideas.because we the people are in Control of the government. they just do what they think is in our best interest that’s way they vote the way they do they think it is in our best interest.that’s why i say let the people vote.i will be quoting our Declaration of Independence(That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security).i am all for helping people in need.but i think this bill will hurt the way of life and hurt our economy.but why can all the america citizens vote on the bill as long as they know the pro and con of everything.
