The Obama healthcare plan is a socilast nightmare!! I do not want the government doling out my healthcare. I know you must report me to flag@whitehouse.gov now, because I oppose this "Obamanation" of a plan.
It is such a shame that so many americans are soo STUPID AND DUMB. For all that don't know how to listen and read we all know how you did in school. Because you think this is such a bad thing for us no one wants you to get rid of your healthcare service you already have you jackasses. they want to make it so no one is left out. So that your child who is over 23 and has yet to find a job can have healthcare. Can you afford to pay for your childs healthcare on your own. Are you so rich that you can pay for coverage. I am ashame to be known as an American because this country can't take care of it's own like France, Canada, Cuba yes Cuba. Look at the people who dug bodies out at ground zero who are sick because they helped. They can't get any medical help but you want but if we had this medical coverage they would be getting the help they need. You people are just plan FOOLS DUMB STUPID FOOLS.
It would be nice if some of these people would actually read the bill and then make a decision instead of letting fox new make it for them. I have relatives who have had no problems with their socialist medicine(medicare). Its about time the united states started catching up with the rest of the world instead of working to become backwards.
Ignorance is bliss for apparently a good majority of Republicans. (Yeah, I said it. The R word. As if it's worth anyone's time to even pretend this issue isn't completly split along party lines!!) What boggles the mind is the way these hateful, spiteful, IGNORANT individuals spew from the mouth without knowing WHAT it is they are TALKING about. Jeez! The package does NOT ask taxpayers to fund abortions, it does NOT make arrangements to euthanize grandma; the stupidity and just plain hilarity of it is enough to make a head spin. DUH, people!! READ UP ON THE FACTS BEFORE YOU FORM AN OPINION. And when I say READ, I mean, research some nonpartisan websites, articles, etc. I do NOT mean, tune into Rush Limbaugh in the afternoon!! Think you can handle the truth? Or is it preferable to let Sarah (sore loser) Palin do the "thinking" for you?????
i do not think the gov should be invested in my end of life care.. we are not an uneducated nation .. we can read and then some.. now the administration is backtracking on previous statements.. they are running over the nation like an 18 wheeler down a tpke.. non stop.. too much money too little caring for the people... those that put them in office.. calling us nazis.. brown shirts..shame.. stick to the facts.. if any of this administration has taken the time to read all over one thousand pages.. shame on you all..
no one should deciede who lives or who dies.. its written in tom dashells papers.. thank you
I can not beleive that so many people can be so stupid or blind to beleive the lies that the likes of Fox News (or as I refer to it as Fox Propiganda) and many republicans are spreading. I really wish that the ones intentionally spreading the lies could have criminal charges pressed against them.
right now for-profit insurers decide who gets treatment - the HC Bill offers Seniors a CHOICE of discussing, with their own physician, the life-sustaining measures they'd prefer or decline IF they were terminally ill AND unable to speak for themselves - the government has no involvement, except to pay the physician for his/her time - all decisions are left to the patient - Sue Blevins, who also opposes mandatory immunization (polio, smallpox anyone?), suggests that this is government intervention - it is not - Medicare is a sustainable, well run program - 3% over-head - no $205,000,000 a year CEO's like United Healthcare - no 87% premium hikes since 2002, no 400% plus increase in profit generated by shifting risk/payment to insureds while denying care - Medicare, the eradication of terrible diseases thru NIH and CDC work, are examples of gov't working well -
The reason healthcare costs are so high is because of the very government you want to have run the rest of the system. If it weren't for government intrusion via Medicare, Medicade and mandates for services wanted or not (including the ban on allowing catastropic care coverage)costs would not be an issue. This is about socialism, marxism and yes, communism. Obama doesn't care about healthcare, he wants to control our lives.
