I want to know what happened to democracy. The vast majority of people don't want this bill. Why are Pelosi and co. still trying to shove it down our throats?
No offense sir, but you must be drinking FOX Kool Aid, but The last polls I saw the people wanted this.
Even Palin this week admitted to running across the border to receive Canada's free health care.
Last night in the ER while waiting on X-rays I spoke to my brother. He, like so many people these days, blame democrats for everything and I lost respect for my brother last night when he said he listens to Glen Beck.
My brother has an autistic son and he has to work 3 jobs (paramedic, Firefighter) to be able to afford insurance enough to just get simple medicine. I argued with him, how could you not support universal health care? I told him he is killing himself to work for medicine that the gov should be providing its people.
Everyone acts like this reform is going to end our country, but if anything, i think it will unify us in the long run if people just open their hearts and minds.
Everyone thinks that this will bankrupt us but remember people that 1/6th of our economy is based on healthcare and insurance. They are crooks that are leeching off of people that can not afford it, for basic service.
we need to change the system and do it now.
oh, and remember people it is a public option not a rule. You DONT HAVE TO USE IT. You can still fondle the balls of your fav insurance company and hope for a payoff, or you can get the treatment you need when you need it.
Ignorant people want to tell you the universal health care is bad, but do the research yourself. Provention medicine is what the will lead too.
i,e, Most people without insurance can not afford to go to a doctor for something. They wait till it is serious and then go to the ER. The ER then gets clogged up with people without insrance who are fucked up for some reason, that if they could have afforded to see a doctor sooner could have prevented the amount of money and time wasted by emergency staff.
If people can get the help they need they will only take it when they need it.
It is a greed complex.
Just like if you took away all money, if there was a way to give everyone what they needed they would not steal or possibly hurt someone to do it.
Like Replicators on Star Trek as an example. These replicators can replicate anything you want. It is all programmed in to the computer and basically materialized in front of you. Total Fiction, but in thier world they have got rid of money, povertry, famine.
Give people what they need and people can and will change. Everyone wants the right to be healthy.
If none of this makes sense you must either be a republican douche, or i must be really stoned still.
