HR 676.

Single Payer system where doctors get compensated instead of haggling with insurance companies.

Although, I do like what I hear from Obama`s proposal of people keeping whatever insurance they have (if they are dumb enough to do so) and offering a Public option.

That won't work...many companies will dump private insurance and force their folks onto Barrycare.

Which would save corporation and small business the burden of High Insurance costs.  This is the major reason small businesses fail as well as Large.


GM is a perfect example of being shackled with Medical Insurance payments.

Employment should not dictate whether you live or die.

Oh please...people arent dying in the streets. We can't afford it. Typical lib...u guys feel that people need this or that...cold hard facts never enter into it. People aren't dropping dead. U use these ridiculous examples of Norway or other countries that won't remotely work here.

Uh, people are not only DYING to the tune of 20,000 plus (highly conservative estimate) due to no medical insurance, but people are literally being RELEGATED TO LIVING in the street as Medical costs are the number one cause of Bankruptcy in the United States.

We spend more per capita per person in Healthcare than any nation that has Single-Payer or a Nationalized system.  This means we SPEND WAY MORE ALREADY than they do and would only SAVE money if we adopted a similar system.

They're going to raise taxes, they're not going to fix anything. They will continue to bankrupt us. Fix the current system, make cuts form pet projects,like cancel the rest of the stimulus.  Why is this the American tax payers problem.
