Health Care Debate - Littleton, CO

Too much, too soon, too little "transparency".

ObamaCare wouldn't even kick in until 2013, why not pass (or not) a little bit at a time? Put it into manageble chunks that eliminate (or at least reduce) the amount of doublespeak, loopholes, and earmarks.

we have the single greatest health care system in the world! why screw it up with government interference? yeah its expensive. but like gramma used to say you get what you pay for. do you really want free health care?

Nothing in this world is perfect. We can make health care better, but not with Obama's help.

its all lies they will just keep ripping the people off. docs are as much at fault as the rest of them. they tell you one price then hit you with a bill for more.(MDs are not gods)we should all start using mexican names and tell them we are illegals. we do have free health care in the usa its just for blacks and mexicans. wake up white people!
The CEO for United health care make over $1200.00 per MIN not a hour or a day or a week. they say they want to help us.lies

because I have spinal problems, and a constantly eroding stomach, I cant go to normal school because i puke 5 times a day. The insurance make us pay so much and use pre existing conditions as a excuse. My inssurance company is GREEDY, that all there is to it

Colorado Wants Special Tuition Class For Illegal Aliens

ViewDiscussion.Last Updated: Fri, 10/16/2009 - 12:17pm

Months after the Colorado Legislature rejected a measure to grant illegal immigrants discounted tuition at public colleges and universities, Democrats continue working on a soon-to-be-introduced bill to make it happen.

In April Colorado lawmakers killed—for the fourth time—a proposal that would have allowed illegal aliens to pay lower in-state tuition at the state’s 30 public colleges and universities. It was a contentious plan that was debated on the Senate floor for more than three hours before lawmakers, including several Democrats, finally defeated it.

This week a group of Colorado Democrats reveal they’ve been ardently working behind the scenes to tweak the defeated law so that it passes. Their plan centers on the creation of a special tuition category for illegal immigrants that attempts to disguise the taxpayer-financed perk granted to the state’s legal residents.

Since illegal immigrants don’t qualify for the subsidy given to the children of parents who pay state taxes, tens of millions of dollars will be allocated for the new illegal alien tuition class. That way, the law’s sponsors say, illegal immigrants don’t have to pay the much higher out-of-state fees. Either way it’s presented, the money comes from U.S. taxpayers.

One of the law’s sponsors, Senator Paula Sandoval, says the third tuition rate is a compromise that will avoid the pitfalls of four previous failed attempts at passing legislation. The House sponsor, Denver Representative Joe Miklosi, says the measure will “empower” the state’s undocumented high school graduates.

Ten states—including California, Texas, Utah, Kansas, Washington and New York—have laws granting illegal immigrants discounted college tuition and a few—Georgia, Oklahoma and Arizona—have recently created policies banning the perk. The practice was successfully challenged by a group of out-of-state students in California who argued that the state’s college system violated the law by charging them higher tuition and fees than undocumented immigrants. A California appellate court ruled in favor of the American students and the case is pending before the sate Supreme Court.

Federal Government power grab. Our elected officials don't want their proposed government run health care for themselves!

It is the right thing for you to pay for it personally.

Anyone in favor of government health care has never lived under government health care. I have!
