First-term Rep. Gerald E. Connolly (D-Va.) said the summit marks the beginning of Obama's last, best chance to achieve his top domestic policy goal.
"It may involve hand-holding or holding of noses, but either you buy into the idea of health-care reform that transcends everything else you want to do, or you seal its fate," Connolly said. "On our side, the time for haggling is over. The question is: Do you want this, or do you want nothing?"
FUCK THESE ASSHOLES!
We dont want your stupid healthcare plan! It sucked before, and it still sucks now!
I guess they didnt learn from the recent victory of Brown in Mass.
I figure we just need to vote the rest of them out.
SINGLE PAYER...expanded medicare tax to pay for medical services for all citizens...
or
each person is responsible for all their own cost...This leads to private for profit insurance...but we do not need the government in the middle of it...
There is no other way to go about it....the ACA was written by insurance lobbyist...to make certain the private for profit insurance stayed in the game...
It was a SELL out of democrats who CLAIMED they want single payer...YET somehow allowed one person JOE LIEBERMAN to block them from implementing it...
BULLSHIT...that was a horse and pony show so they could SELL OUT...
I'd have to disagree with the Government not being involved in healthcare, and here is my main reason why -
If the government does not ensure these private companies are operating on the level, they could easily deny benefits at a time that would see the insured die... then who can sue the insurance company!?
The last thing I want to worry about when laid up in the hospital is having to argue with an insurance company and the bureaucracy that is involved in that nonsense.
You see, the government got healthcare right FOR PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR THE GOVERNMENT, everyone else - well that's a different story. Cadillac plans for people in government while we got insurance that wasn't worth the card it was printed on?
How people could accept the lifetime Cadillac plans politicians got while we all got the shaft is one of the main reasons I can't support Democrats.
