Health Summit Update: Sounds like we WILL get single-payer!!!
Advertisements [?]
I'm hearing people after people that we all want single-payer. All these Dems are there are supportive of single-payer. How in the hell did it get around this site that single-payer are denied?! It's been proved otherwise and Progressives think what you will...

But Obama, got this shit and he was on top of it before you think you had a "say." This is not to say that progressive activists aren't worthwhile but Obama is coming through and he just proved with this panel that all those news articles that were coming out that he WASN't recognizing single payer is crap. All the Dems there are for single-payer for sooner rather than later. All of them and this cat who is to represent health care providers (ie Doctors, nurses, hospitals) named Dennis Rivera.

He's fantastic, he wants a single payer and the doctors want it. Because they can bring down costs by opening a government option making all in all cheaper and it might be more functional than the private ones. So far, excluding Hatch...it's been a bash and critique of all things private.

Thank you PRESIDENT OBAMA!!! For someone with no health care like myself. Who initially joined your camp for your health care plan...you've come through. I could cry. I have a pre-existing condition that has denied me health care, services, and otherwise I've found it too expensive. This is great.

I think a lot of small businesses would opt-out to follow single-payer because it would be cheaper for them. This economic cycle and everything that's being said is to basically watch the death of private insurers little by little.

There are more sessions to expect on this and I hope we get the secondary plan and Obama said he would give it to us and he's going to.

In actuality he's created a transparent platform so we can do some boycotting of these private insurers who were talking trash, if any. He's put so many people on a panel FOR single payer that with it's inception it would actually force the hand of private insurers to lower their prices that he had promised the American people. Talk about killing several birds with one stone.

I LOVE OBAMA!!!

Yippee!! :woohoo:
