Scary video. But as Americans come to question what this administration would like to mandate for us it is a wake-up call
to pay close attention to Health Care and Health insurance coverage.
How many of us who are gainfully employed and contribute in part to health care coverage know the full value of the benefit? Many 20-30 year olds gripe about the payroll deduction but in fact annual family benefit plans range from twelve to eighteen thousand dollars annually. Purchase a family plan as a self-employed individual and you will find the monthly premium will top $1,600 dollars per month (with a high deductible) thats nearly 20,000 per year, for a healthy individual. How many of us could afford it along with our other cost of living expenses? Not too many. Costs are rising too. Where is the ceiling? Employers are stretched to the limits with rising healthcare costs and our hospitals are running in the red.
Right now we can add to the statistics a 10% un-employment rate and a two year projection for very little recovery. We have a flood of newly un-insured Americans who have no idea of how to get required or preventative medical treatment. I spoke with a young, 32 year old woman last week who lost her job and now her husband has also been layed off. Their cobra is about to run out within three months, with no job prospects she will not be able to afford her MS medication which is $1,500 per month.
We absolutely need health insurance reform in this country.
If the Obamacare plan is wrong and hurts instead of helps we still need an overhaul. So while the opposition screams out they need to also step up with a good and decent plan for every American citizen. I want it for me and I want it for you.

But Didn't you note that the Obama plan includes giving medical services to the illegal immigrants.
That is why you insurance premiums are going to be sky high.
How about the fact that it puts an Obama Czar between you and your doctor and you get NOTHING, unless it is approved by one of Obama's radical Czars called the Health Choices Commissioner--the commissioner that makes your health choices for you!
Now that's scary!
All the Seniors in our country will be screwed by the obama-care plan.
In Obama's own words, he said instead of spending a lot of money treating old people who are going to die anyway, he would just give them a pain pill. Get ready to be doped up if you get sick, as you will not get a dime in treatment if you are over 62!
Senior citizens will not be well represented under the Obama plan. Again, we still need a better solution than the road we are on with health insurance. With employee health premiums nearing 20,000 per family plan annually, and little possibility of purchasing health insurance outside of gainful employment an overhaul is necessary.

OBAMA'S PLAN IS TO INSURE ALL THE ILLEGAL ALIENS ON YOUR DIME. AND YOU WONDER WHY SOME 60% OF THE VOTERS ARE OBJECTING TO HIS PLAN?
GET A LIFE AND FACE REALITY.
People in the first Congressional district, which includes Berlin, should be made aware that this is what John Larson was trying to convince senior citizens in Berlin just last week was a good plan for them.
Maybe it is time that a socialist like John Larson were replaced in November, just like the rejection of socialism that just occurred in Massachusetts with the election of a Republican to sit in the former seat of Ted Kennedy.
You get a life. No where is it stated that the Obama plan is the right solution nor is it agreed to insure illiegal aliens either. That doesn't change the fact that health insurance in this country needs to be re-structured. American citizens are going without health insurance and necessary healthcare. I hope you never find yourself walking in the shoes of the un-insured in need of health care services.
And FYI this comes from a registered conservative Republican.
Because a small portion of Americans have no insurance, the solution is to destroy the best health care system in the world and have the government control what care you can and can not receive???
Government run health care is a dismal failure everywhere it has been tried. If countries that are a fraction of the size of the U.S. can't make socialized medicine work, what would make you think it could work here, in what once was the freest country on earth?
Yes, we have the greatest health care available to us. However the insurance system is destined already to ruin our economy. With premiums nearing 20K annually per individual, without controls and re-planning of this system, it's a runaway train. Just because a few people don't have insurance we should let the train wreck happen?
Wait until you find out that your riding that train. If we have the greatest healthcare system in the world we should also have the best financial plan to provide for that system.
The Obama plan evokes near riots over the items included in this bill and with good reason. That doesn't change the necessity to overhaul the health insurance industry in this country.
Let us look in the past to see into the future.

Democracy then degenerates into tyranny where no one has discipline and society exists in chaos.
Also it seems to me that the Democrats keep saying the Republicans have no answers. But what is this.

I am tired of the government lies, mis information and self serving. They are either complete idiots or they are very smart.
Now there we go. Health insurance reform from the GOP. Common sense ideas that will make health insurance more affordable like, being able to shop across state lines for insurance. Do you think any democrats will work with republicans to effect positive changes? We will only effect change when the voters speak at the polls.
The Republicans are the only ones with sensible answers regarding health care, but they are not allowed at the table. This meeting on Thursday is a sham where they are going to be told take the Democratic bill or leave it, just like in the past.
