Health Care Debate - Spring, TX

A light government is a better government!

I do not believe government intervention is best for the nation. America is about the people and not one man shoving his belief on everyone. Maybe our healthcare needs a little change, but it needs the right change.

I think their are a lot of families out there that need this, we need health care for everyone.

Inmates get healthcare, how about law abiding citizens?

I agree that there are people who need health care, but if you talk to people from Canada and many other places that have government provided health care they will tell you they did not like it. Some people moved to the U.S with one of their reasons being healthcare. So now the government is going to ruin the health system that many people are content with? America's government was once amazingly based on governing for the people, not themselves.

People know better how to deal than government!

The connection between the cost of health care and our national debt is too abstract to comprehend for most of the voting population. The immediate effect is sufficently small to gain support for the oppostion, namely, the health insurance industry. By the time, about two decades, most of the voters understand the impact on our country's solvency it will be too late. We will truly be bankrupt in the classical meaning of the word. Our federal government will have more debt than we have between the aggregate national institutional resources and federal tax income. The United States of America will no longer be the preeminent economy. The cost of the money (interest) we borrow from other nations will increase and our federal tax rates must increase.

The plan is nothing less than appropriating a huge part of the private sector to gain power (over life and death, no less!) and to redistribute wealth to those who have not earned it.

We do not nor do we want the government to run our health care. Next thing they will be running your bank account. The can't run Washington and you want us to let them run our life?

Obama is destroying our nation!

You can't deliver the freaking mail with out losing money. Fix the USPS and then we'll talk.
