Really why are you against it.......?

CNN Poll today:

"Do you feel well informed about the health care plans in congress?

Yes, I'm on top of it. 25% 21064

No, I'm confused. 75% 62150

Total Votes: 83214"

That's great for the Republicans. They make people feel confused and make it appear as if the Democrats are rushing with health care then people trust them more.

It's cute how CNN just throws it out there. It's their job to INFORM people!

I like my insurance I have now and I believe their goal is a single payer system. How can you have a non-profit company competing with for-profit companies. Imagine if I put a non-profit Wal-Mart next to yours, which one would you shop at? I don't care about the end of life rumors or the payments for abortions, neither pertain to me whether true or false. I care about having options and I don't care what anybody says, this will drive insurance companies under. It is too much to soon, they need to start small and fix problems in the current system, tort reform. We in Tennessee have TennCare, which is run through medicaid. You apply for it like you do food stamps or welfare, based on income. If ALL the states don't have a similar system then let's start there. Single moms can get TennCare just by putting their names on it, but for non-parents it is a little more difficult, but very possible. I agree that we may need reform, but a complete overhaul scares me. I consider myself pretty smart but I know that I would not be able to do all the things they keep saying they'll be able to do. Like run a non-profit company competitively.

No, the lies have NOT been debunked.

Sure, if you're covered now, you can keep your coverage...until you change jobs (page 16 of HR3200...read it). Then, you will NOT have a choice of what insurance you purchase, because it will be illegal for private insurers to write you a new policy, which denies me my freedom of choice to shop around for a better deal.

Personally, I am also against public education; it is ineffective, wastes money, protects ineffective workers, and promotes indoctrination. Education is not a right in my opinion; it is a parental responsibility.

If my neighbor, friend, or bag boy wants to have the same help that I get from my church on medical issues, I will happily help them.

This is nothing more than a power grab by the government, and I resist it as I have all others in my life.

If this is not the bill that President Obama wanted and he wanted the senate to vote on in three weeks then were is his Proposal! This is the bill Democrats wanted to shove down our throats . But now that we have told you that we don't want it you are trying to change it to a rough draft well bull shi#. See this is what i hate about the Democrat party when it don't work for you just spin it the other way. PITIFUL!! OH!so if you don't have or cant afford i should pay for you and your child even if it will take away from me and my kids.YOU are livening in a dream world.

I don't live in your country - however the

haste by the people in power of passing that legislation set off alarm bells

Never forget that those people voted into power are there to serve the constituents. if you want to help your fellow man, you can do it by urging them to be fully informed, have ALL the facts, and make informed judgements . My mother is 81, fled a communist regime .....she sees a lot of similarity in the systematic " government run " of a democratic system

in America today -thankfully you have the freedom of choice.....please don't lose

it!

Why are you supporting it? Have you read any of it or do you just believe what the liberal media tells you?

I'm glad you mentioned public schools-have you been in one lately or talked to any public school students? See how they are run and the lack of quality in this education system?

Do you really feel comfortable with the government completely controlling your health care and possibly your life?

just a few notes for you to ponder but I suggest reading this proposed bill before you support it.

I have an idea.......Let the president do his job! It's so funny how so many have strong opinions but no solutions, hay lets put Bush back in office and let him finish messing up what he started! So many forget this is all inherited not OBAMA's fault! Wake UP!

You need to keep up more. Obama is flat out lying. Read the proposed bill.

Cos a lot of Americans see 'socialism', and any social ideas, as the root of all evil. Don't ask me how that happened but we Brits think you're all mad for not jumping at this oportunity

If the government can negotiate all this ... why can't he negotiate it to be applied to the existing health care system??????????????????

why then the need to create a "government" held program?????? don;t you think that it sounds and looks fishy?

Why spend the 1.4 trillion?
