Title: Do any Democrats support the current Health Care Reform Bill and why?
Post by: Soul Crusher on December 16, 2009, 06:14:42 AM

Serious question:  everyone on the right hates this thing, but does anyone here support this present bill and if so why?  

The reason I am asking is to see if you guys really know what this thing is going to do?

I would think that the individual mandate to purchase private insurance without any cost control whatsoever would be enough for anyone to hate this thing.

Am I wrong on this?

IMO reform has not gone far enough.  I agree with what he says some of this bill is BS, some is good.  I would have loved for them to pass a public option but that is politics.  You don't always get what you voted for.
