Obama Care

firstdown · 06-23-2009, 10:20 AM

Well it seem's that ABC is in Obama's corner and they will not allow any opposing views to his Socialized health care. They are going to hand pick the audience (might as well say hand pick the questions) and it seems Obama is running ABC now as well. Am I living in China or Iran?

We do all we can. It seems like the majority of Americans are willing to go along with all of this. They just don't care. We get the government we deserve and Democracy is for the mob.

Oh, I was thinking! Look at the bright side. Obama Care will cure many Americans of "Affluent-encia".

Your love for Obama only makes you blind to the stupid crap he does every day.

Are you joking?? Did you see the press conference yesterday? The media coddles him like nothing I've ever seen before, and when he was asked real questions, he ducked and dodged like a pro.

Can you blame the media? Can you blame them? I mean, they're the ones that actually have to ask the questions!

And here the responses :confused: Forgive them if they're happy to FINALLY have a President that can speak in complete sentences! A president that can answer their questions. A president that won't throw them out of the room for asking the "wrong question". Its just.........Its weird man! I mean, remember the last Supreme Court nominee? The lottery chick? Can you imagine being in the media and having to go through that? Having to ask the questions? Particulary, why he appointed a Lottery chick? Just think about it from their perspective for a minute...............And give them a break man. Give us a break! We're still getting used to it.

I don't love anyone, but if the plan is good and the end result is positive, I don't really care about the means, be they heavy handed or not.

So if the goverment wants to raise your taxes 10 to 15% your fine with that. Massachusetts has mandated health insurance which started in 2006 at a cost of around 633 million and it now projected to cost around 950 million in 2009. Thats goverment at work for you.

First off, the question is do I think that universal healthcare is vitally important. The answer is yes. That being the case, am I willing to pay an increase in taxes for that benefit? Yes again. I am already paying a significant sum of money for things I would rather not, whether it's ridiculous research into quack science or funding poor lending practices, this is something that I feel is actually a basic, human rights/quality of life issue. You cannot be an advanced society when ANY percentage of your population are denied healthcare. Take a look at defense spending in the same period. I'd be interested to see how much of a difference there is in one as opposed to the other. Too many people get wrapped up in these emotional issues with ideas being labelled "democratic, republican or, oh my heavens, socialist." Sit back, take off your partisan hat and think about the most basic question: Should everyone, let alone every US Citizen, have access to quality healthcare?

First off this coverage will go to anyone who is living in the US legal or not. Second there is not that many people denied health coverage or cannot afford health care to tear apart our health care system. Does it need some work. Yes but goverment is one of the biggest problems with health care coverage today. Goverment F*&$ up everything it touches, SS, Medicad, Medicare, heck even the post office is loosing money. I don't care who comes up with this bad plan I'm not for the goverments power grab of about 10% of the US economy.

Have you been paying attention the last year or so? You want an example of how well the private sector governs itself, look no further than the housing bubble and associated ridiculous lending practices. The ones who trot out the whole "government screws up everything" routine need to keep that in mind for the future.

Not that many people? That's an absurd statement. How many tens of millions of legal citizens does it take?

Government might be one of the biggest problems, but the biggest problem is that Health Insurance companies have been raping the American people forever and they don't want to give up all that money that they steal from us. Why would anyone want to protect these interests? Money for campaigns. It's all about money.
