To even the playing field all people with health insurance should drop theirs
even those on Medicare and Medicaid. That way there is no fight because there is no health insurance for anyone, you are all on your own even the congress people, just outlaw all health insurance.Try getting that passed.

2. says someone who isn't on very expensive medication, I'm guessing
some of us would be bankrupt in a month if we tried to pay for our meds out of pocket.

5. This is the answer to those who are opposed to the passing of health care bill
they don't want others to have health care only themselves.The ones who oppose this bill should be asked if they would give up their health care. (I am for this bill and love Obama for helping to pass this)

4. Maybe it would be better if workers unionized and get their employers to pay for health insurance?

Doesn't that make more sense?

Oh, another thing. Probably a good idea to support our labor unions whenever possible. Because as a union member I don't patronize places of business where the owner doesn't support our labor unions.

6. all people with health insurance should drop theirs - HUH ??????
That thought is right up there with not paying taxes as a form of protest.

Edited on Tue Mar-23-10 07:04 AM by luckyleftyme2
I'M SO PROUD THAT WE PASSED THE HEALTH-CARE REFORM BILL!
I'M SO GLAD THAT PLEOSI PLUCKED THAT LOUD MOUTH MINORITY LEADER OF THE HOUSE!
SHE SHOWED HIM WHO COULD RALLY THE VOTES! SHE PLUCKED HIS FEATHERS AND MADE HIM A CAPON!(REP. JOHN BOEHNER THE CAPON ON THE RIGHT)
FIRE UP! FIRE UP! WE WILL GOVERN! WE WILL WIN IN NOV.! WE WILL END THESE WARS WE ARE IN!
FIRE UP! YES WE CAN! FIRE UP!
