Health Care Debate - Germantown, MD

I am against his health plan policies. I don't need the government to control my health. Illegal alliens should not be cover by a health care plan that we american citizens have to pay for.

Illegal aliens are not covered, now that a loophole which is now amended, was changed from the original HR 3200 Health Care Bill.

Would you want your HMO to run the Federal Government? I don't think so. Just how much of your paycheck would that eat up? And how much would it cost next year?

Think about it.

public option is the only way even if it could bankrupt insurance companies. If it turns out that way, too bad. It would mean that the public option is more efficient.

Employee mandate: everybody is taxed whether they are healthy or not.
Fundamentally, people who can, pay for people who can not. The people who can today may be the people who can not tomorrow. Thinking that a healthy person should pay less is short sighted. That very person may not be able to claim the same thing the next day.

a free market with minimal government involvement is always the best option.if some people dont recieve the best care,so be it. when the strongest survive our country will be stronger,people will work harder, and our standard of living will increase.

peter...is this why all the other industrialized nations are weak? england? canada? japan? it appears to me that their government cares more about the health of their citizens that all have access to care as a basic right. take for example a recent incident where a health insurance denied coverage to a health baby because the baby's weight was at high end of the scale. are you serious? what if this was your baby or child?

are you also against medicare and social security for the elderly that is government run?

i believe less government is better and let capitalism take its course, however, the government system must support basic rights to benefit the citizens of its country.

i would say most people have bought into the fear mongering promoted by the republican party and healthcare companies. instead of using their own brains, they just conveniently believe junk out there.

i'm sure i'll get negative replies to this, but i strongly believe reform is needed. we need to have a system that has cares for the health of its citizens and not the bottom line.

unnecessary expansion, not going to improve the issue

Duesn't limit costs, doesn't insure everyone. Why spend the money? It will only add to the debt, and potentially put people in jail if they don't accept. What happened to America, Mr. Obama?
