Health Care Debate - Clearlake, CA

First of all, what has the Government done that doesn't cost MORE than they estimated?
I wouldn't buy a car before it was finished being designed, and without knowing the price.

one word! COST!!!!!!!!!!

If anyone wonders why oh why we should trust our President on Health Care I challenge all to view the excellent documentary "Sicko" which shows how health care through HMOs today are responsible for refusing treatment and allowing critically ill patients to die. My own family has had health care nightmares--all based on money, or the lack thereof! One physician testified in Washington, D.C. about receiving a bonus for saving the HMO she worked for money by refusing treatment to a patient who then died. She no longer does that kind of work and feels ashamed. Americans--all--need to become educated about the truths in our present health care system.

3 words: WASTE, FRAUD, ABUSE.

Maybe you should get a job and buy your family some good health insurance.

what a disaster it will be

Medical insurance reform is possible without a government health care bureaucracy deepening the financial collapse of our republic. $12Trillion in debt now, $10Trillion more in five years will be unsustainable. The U.S. is pending bankruptcy.

Michael Moore is a lying dumbass, like your parents, who will STILL be brother and sister once they divorce...

In the past 8 years, I have not seen any Republican health care reform, only 2 wars and a terribly bad economy, and the usual "good ol boy network" getting richer and richer.

Government Run health care...It'll be travesty.The worse thing that will ever happen to our once great america!!
