Health Care Debate - Dayton, OH

It is not A right for a nations people to be taken care of, But it should be a gesture by a nation as powerful as ours to do so, especially when its people are being victimized by the very industry that is supposed to help keep us healthy and instead in the name of profit they let the elderly die, and families to go broke , become homeless and are pushed deeper into the fringes of society, where they languish and sometimes they are forgotten. We cannot do this, Our elderly our children, our soldiers our workers We all deserve to have our basic needs taken care of.

Commonly-used inner-city "pills", ranging in size between .22 and .45 caliber, will either increase or reduce medical bills, if not dispensed by good shots that will in effect cause bodies to rot.

Funny , but not in that HA HA kind of way, but rather in that very sad after school special kind of way, that the irony of it all has a way of making us feel.

seems to me that what is going on is a form of our freedom being slowly taken away from us why is the question I ask for a black president would want to lose our freedom since they the blacks have fought so hard for equal justice and every other civil rights from slavery to getting off the bus it justs make no since there should be another way

I don't think you Understand what is going on with healthcare and it's reform, There are Several Bills in for review , none of them are law and wont be until the go thorugh the process of Review, Revision and then financial approval , then congressional approval BEFORE Obama or The next president signs it. I think The Left and right are so focused on a few talking points that they are losing sight of what needs to be done.

What Rights do you think are being taken away?

Will we have any choice, or voice besides those talk-radio shows?

I think we should
be allowed to speak not some Puffed up blowhard like Hannity or Limbaugh or Maher or Stewart.

those guys are rich and can afford REALLY good private insurance, but what about the family of 4 that brings in 4200 a month and has to pay over 1300 in medical insurance JUST IN CASE something happens, and stillhave not paid for the mortgage or even food yet.

Leave the Health Care system the way it is... It is working right now. Why all of the sudden change.Obama is not going to tell us what kind of health care we recieve. Would anyone in congress settle for the same health care the average Joe would get under Obama's plan..Hell no. They would get better care. Obama has all these promises to the nation before and after his election and he has done nothing at all. He should not be President. The only reson he was voted for was to make History "The first Black President." People were not thinking this through when casting their votes. America is going downhill fast if we continue to follow these stupid ideas that will never wrok form Obama. No NO NO to national Health Care!!!!!! It will not work! Not in America.

I agree no National Health Care!!!!!!

Leave the Health care System alone! Obama is an idiot and should have never been elected. The only reason he was because American's were too concerned about making history. "The First Black President." Obama promised all these things and ideas and has done nothing

Don't change a thing

Actually no it's not... it's functioning much the same way a war with 3 flat tires a blown radiator and a busted windshield "functions" , but it is not much use.

I see families everyday and thebiggest complaint I get is "How am I supposed to choose between my (insert type) medication and food for my wife and kids.... " I mean people talk to me and all I can do is give em astakc of papers and say I don;t know but Fill these forms out and we will see what happens....

I just had a rough year we had like 9000 people from DHL and ABX come through my office looking for unemployment and Trying to get medicare and medicaid. I remember one family pulling up in a brand new Cargo van , filled to the brim with bag an boxes and pulling a trialer, one of the clients was leaving OHIo to go live with his family down in texas just brought a house and he had to sell it (less than 3 years) no bad mortgage he just could not afford to heat it this coming winter . He needed insurance for his wife's Lupus and COBRA was draining him dry. It does not work for the majority of the population , unless you are Very well employed or very well off..

the public option I am not too sure about , but the system is Broken and needs work NOW!

Do not want a government operated system

We can't afford a socialistic health care system.

Not another public health care system. We have a projected 9 trillion dollar deficit, illegals will be covered, abortion will be covered while medicare that has a funding problem will be gutted. If it is so great make members of Congress and the President sign up for it too.

Thousands of people will be heading to Boston next weekend to protest government-run healthcare.
Massachusetts residents have been living under a state government-run healthcare system which is crumbling and losing money, Also, Baucus won't allow us to read the bill before signing and will not allow medicare protection.

THanks CVS caremark, Thanks BlueCross BlueShield of Illinois!

A new report from America's Health Insurance Plans says the bill pending before the Senate Finance Committee will cause health care costs to rise higher and faster than under the current system.

Link please .. or its just rumor

The Health Care plan simply treats the symptoms. What we need are jobs. If you don't like your "benifit package" find a job that will give you a better one. The Hospitals are full of Welfare Folks getting free care.
