Health Care Debate - Huntsville, TN

As a nurse I know first hand the fraud and misuse that occurs. I see it every day. I also know that my parents who own their own business pay almost 12-17 grand a year for insurance because my mom had breast cancer and Golden Rule Insurance keeps uping the bill because they can. My mom who has helped my father run the business for 20 + years has had to get a job at a hospital in the billing dept. just for the insurance. She in 53 years old. This is insanity. My parents paid over half of their yearly net income for insurance. I see this and then I see people on disablity for "their nerves or their back" every week admitted to the hospital so they can either get the drugs or the attention. I am sick to death of paying for someonelse's Xanax or Lortab. At least with his Public option people will have to pay for their own way to some extent. "The time for action is at hand" I agree. If we don't take back this country from the takers, the greedy, the criminals, the users we will fail. Obama is a hope and we need hope. I look to the future and I see civil unrest and war. Affordable heathcare is a start in the right direction. Make the welfare users pay something for their healthcare.

this will have more and more people in debts and more people will lose their home. just read between the lines

Yes, I too am tired of paying for other peoples insurance, and working my butt off to keep my insurance, maybe now people will have to get off their backsides and pay their own way. Hope so!

Obama is a Muslim, the democrats supported welfare from the foundation of its beginning,and people will sue someone for any reason at the drop of a hat. You need to look a little closer into the policies of the demo's and their desires for the medical insurance ind. Our parents want have to pay for their insurance very long,when they reach a certain age it will be taken from them all together! In several areas of what insurances will pay for it already has. My parents are in their mid and late 70's
