The conservative wing have one item to express their vote on; on the other hand
the progressive wing, those who want to change things, have their vote split into two extremized positions one of which is not even on the table anymore.

That is unfair to about the 65% of the people saying that a change is needed. This is a lot considering that this is quite a conservative site.
The way this poll is set will instead show that things are preferred to stay the same; which is utterly untrue.

50,000 Americans die every year because they cannot afford health insurance, many others bankrupt or give their entire salary to health insurance companies
to afford the treatment they need just to stay alive.
The people who do not want this to change are morally responsible for these tragedies; they remind me of those Europeans in WWII who knew about death camps
and did nothing about it.
If you think that the bill is a "monstruosity" against your freedom you should think about the inhumane monstruosity of the servile massively lobbied
right wing politicians who are keeping this status with the excuse they are protecting american independence.

Hi Mark,

I have a hard time believing the results so far because the results of other polls on this website have had an overwhelming right wing result.

How did I come to the conclusion that the "left is cheating again"? That's just too easy. The left always lies and cheats. If they ever honestly revealed what they were doing or who they were no one would vote for them.

Barak Hussein Obama is a clear example of this. Do you honestly believe that if he revealed during the 2008 campaign what he really thought and the way he was going to govern that he would ever won the election? No way.

Now that it is clear. He is done.

Don

Does your health care plan cover deafness?
Obama talked about universal healthcare, withdraw from Iraq etc..
As far as cheating goes democrats cheat only to loose elections they have already won.

<<2. This "crisis" of unaffordability was CAUSED by the government in the first place - >>

Nope, the crisis of unaffordability is created by the fact that the insurance companies are
publicly traded companies therefore they have to increase their profit every year in order for their stock to be worth anything. At some point the healthy persons drop out of the plan and all the cost (including ER) is wedged into the people who need treatment hence their premium skyrockets, it is pretty simple to understand.


<<>>

Despite your intimidations I say what I think is right to say and I am convinced that the ideological talking points have and always had a huge moral cost. I am sorry for your loss and by the fact that this truth somehow
insults you.

If you have expressed here what you know, then you know nothing.

To let a fraction of the people die in order to keep the wealth of a smaller fraction of people and pretending
that it is done to save liberty, is immoral and unethical. That is my opinion and I confirm it.


<<>>
I am perfectly calm even in front of an arrogant who wants the other opinions to "leave" unless are changed.

Here is why you are a racist:
In the united states there are many other people (a large majority) who think exactly they way I do, should they leave too or this invitation is valid only for me???

"Congratulations, Luca -- I was wondering how long it would be before some essentially-clueless lefty would scream "racist" at anyone opposed to government-run healthcare. "

How do you know that I am pro government health care? Did I even ever mention that?


I raised a moral issue for those who have been left behind by the profit based system and David invited me to leave the country
based on some assumptions about who I am.
He would not ask you to leave the country if you don't think the same way he does.
You (meaning republicans) never get to the issue, you reply by insults and intimidations and by making general ideological statements .

Stay on the issue and answer quite a legitimate question:

Do you think there is a moral responsibility for the people (50,000 a year)
who die for lack of health care??

Is it ok to you Mr Terry Friedrichsen that people die because they cannot afford the treatment?

Answer the question

thanks

<< What?! This is really funny. *You're* the one who shouted "racist". >>
I am right about that, when sombedy assumes that you are a foreigner and feels entitled to throw me out of the country because I disagree, that to me is a textbook
example of racism. It has been done before just like that.

With the private sector the results are not very encouraging either;
life expectancy and infant mortality rate are quite high for an industrialized country:

http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/databriefs/db23_fig1.png

but the profits of these companies are in the billions and a million per day is spent on lobbing.
Given the results that is not efficient either.

Very populistic answer , we die anyway so why bother, right?



<>
I don't know how much you should pay, I can speak for myself and I would be very willing wto pay more taxes to fix this mess rather than paying more to the insurance companies.

Profit is very good when the principle of equivalence of exchanged goods and services works. It can't work when sombedoy does not have any negotiating power.

My definition is spot on, xenophobia *is* racism , only not "justified" by taxonomic differences.

Obama in the budget of 2011 has tried to create a panel to cut some of those but unfortunately many GOP senators opposed the panel just to deny a victory to the president.
Social security and medicare had a surplus about ten years ago, you must remember that.

keep it and spend it on the next stupidest war maybe against Iran
