In the President's effort to do the right thing for Americans, is he being snookered by Insurance Industry?

Yes! Obama is being trumped by the Health Insurance Companies. These Companies have the money and the power. And also are large contributors to our elected officials campaign funds.

, both Democrats, and Republicans. Especially Lieberman and Grassley in the US Senate.

So any real Health Care Reform must be through these companies, who care more about Money, than keeping people alive, and well. What a shame. Corporate America will lie cheat, and buy Congress before any body can get affordable health insurance.

Do you really think he is that stupid? I would applaud a liberal movement to go to a single-payer system. The bill they want to pass is a massive BOON to the insurance companies, just like mandatory car insurance was to car insurance companies (in the states that have it), regardless of its intent.

More likely they are screwing up the system badly enough that in a decade, everyone will be begging for a single-payer system. That is actually pretty insidious.

No. The insurance industry is buying off Democrats in congress.

We are all being snookered by the government and have been for years. The government is the reason our health care costs are so expensive to begin with and now they are going to make it even more costly and manipulating your common sense telling you its what you need.

No his effort to take over 1.6 of the US economy is being fought by people that want the USA FREE

This bill is the best thing that ever happened to the insurance companies. You will now be required by law to have health insurance.

As some one mentioned above, you mean United Statesians. American is anyone from the Americas. That includes Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, Haiti, etc. etc..

What makes you think he is trying to do the right thing for Americans? Maybe you think he knows better than you what is good for you. A lot of us don't want to let him do that.

No. In his race to screw up the country and kill the economy, he is using the insurance industry, drug companies, doctors, etc. as an excuse for why this crap is so unpopular.

since when is he resigning??? this is obviously the right thing to do, so when is he doing it? and what does the insurance industry have to do with a resignation?
