    I want a government that doesn't let insurers get away with refusing care. If you own a health company, you have to provide care to your insured, period, no excuses. If a CEO can't handle that then let him go out of business. Someone can buy there insurance elsewhere. That is business. Yes, it is OK for our government to override insurers refusals. No it is not OK for our government to withdraw money out of our paychecks. That is just as much theft as insurers not paying for the health needs of those they insure. Our system is only broke because Hillary and all the big shots get paid off by the big health care companies to look the other way while they let people die. Don't think for a second these companies don't want universal health care, when the government becomes their universal collection agency their profits will go through the roof. Many healthy people who aren't insured like me will have our wages garnished. Right now my health care cost runs about a couple hundred dollars every several years when I get strep throat. People who have high incomes will be paying HUGE amounts to universal health care, many times what they would spend on insurance. If the socialists get this going the health care industry will become far more wealthy than it is today.

    Affordable health insurance because it would be easier to implement than universal health care. We have health ins./provider system in place so I feel a plan to assist the uninsured move toward coverage is the best answer.

    Private health care insurance will never be affordable for many of our population.. I have ins for my wife & myself..It covers all of our costs..but we pay nearly $600 per month.. Our adult son doesn't have any insurance..he simply can't afford it..

    How about someone actually addressing the rising cost of health care and find out who's living high off the hog from it?

    UHC = affordable. Obama's plas will make UHC affordable for every one. Please visit Obama's website to appreciate it.

    It you don't want the public plan, you can opt for a private plan and pay for extra cost.

    If not for the stupid wars, you could have both with still enough money to spare.
