Thanks Jarasan!!! If we had Reagan running the economy it's doubtful we'd have been in this situation to begin with. And right now if he were running the economy we'd have a fighting chance. The current bunch is the exact opposite of what he represented ... it's just that socialists mantra has convinced sheeple that capitalism is evil. Pot calling the kettle black.

I work in the healthcare industry, I've worked at the Mayo Clinic. The Mayo clinic stated this healthcare bill will worsen the healthcare industry, I agree. Insurance companies DO NOT prevent anyone from getting any exam, the Govt. on the other hand will be able to do so. Insurance companies take claims and approve or disapprove them. Your friend's mom I cannot comment, but insurance companies do not deny anyone healthcare, if the doctor wouldn't do the exam... [ More ]

Try putting blame where it lies, with ambulance chasing tort lawyers who've filed frivolous cases to enrich themselves along with having juries who award malpractice based on sympathy. This single-handedly caused malpractice insurance to rise where many awesome doctors had to cease practice. Don't get me started on insurance companies, my opinion they're the ones that should be torn down and revamped from the bottom up. Their sole purpose is to not pay and to make money both o...

This Big Business brainwashing has got to stop. Why does anyone thing that Big Business has the public's best interests in mind is beyond me. That is what Ronald McDonald pushed all his Presidency. He only lipped synched the speeches, his speech writer wrote them all, all Ronald McDonald did was do what he did on screen, a B rated actor at best. I'm not saying that any politician lights my fires, I have not found any that isn't power mad and once in office only thinks of... [ More ]

Unfortunately, the Government will evolve, whether everyone likes it or not. I disagree with both major parties for various things. Doesn't matter who you vote for, certain things will keep happening. You put your vote in and hope for the best. I agree Medicare/Medicaid need to be watched more intensely for people cheating the system. And illegals should not legally have benefits - they should be deported.

He also was responsible for the fall of the Soviet Union who was one of the predicted players in Armageddon which I've read won't now take place because of that fall. As fascists in charge wave freebie-socialism-to-become-communism under our noses ..... they're guaranteeing themselves immensely more equality than the rest of us in their planned slave state.

Medicare and Medicaid work just fine if we'd get illegals off the dole and update the database mechanism so that people can't double and triple dip. It also needs more checks and balances which are pretty easy to put into place if they'd concentrate on that rather than creating a new bureaucracy.

I made a definite point to sit through the entire 10 minute video. There are too many people that fall through the cracks with the "medical care" that is here today. We definitely need some kind of coverage for those that do not have insurance. Are you suggesting that Insurance companies will provide free coverage? Or that doctors or hospitals will provide free coverage for those people? Been there - without insurance for many years - there was NO way to get doctor bills... [ More ]

@truecritic: You know, I just finished listening to that terrific speech buy Reagan, and it's clear to me that you didn't listen to it. There is absolutely nothing about Nazis or dictators in there. It is an extremely relevant speech to the events of today, and it deals with precisely the same excuses and emotional arguments that liberals/statists are using today. (I LOVE that Reagan refers to them as statists -- perfect word choice!!)

The socialized medicine plan also forces people to pay a multi-thousand-dollar fine if they fail to obtain health insurance. Finally, the government has vastly over-estimated the number of people who have no health insurance. The actual number is between 10 and 15 million, with 15 million being extremely conservative. The reality is somewhere around 10 million. The other 40 million people thrown into the government estimate consist of illegal aliens and people who only tempor... [ More ]
