Lucky... 0 #1 September 25, 2010 http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100925/ap_on_bi_ge/us_health_care_poll A new AP poll finds that Americans who think the law should have done more outnumber those who think the government should stay out of health care by 2-to-1.

tkhayes 348 #2 September 25, 2010 regardless of the costs, most Americans are fed up with not having 'health care' and/or not being able to afford it. Of course the government, rather than go far enough, makes concessions and passes laws to make everyone buy 'health insurance' - two different things. They should have gone the whole way - Medicare for all at the minimum. In two year, we w would all be used to it and we would be all paying for it and all getting better 'health care' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMHO.. after my personal experiences with "health care" as provided by United Health Care and Aetna thru the companies I have worked for over the last 5 years is the only solution to the problem is to SHOOT all the fucking insurance people and start over with a plan that actually works when you need it.

And aren't you for these cuts, I mean all those lazy old people getting free HC is a travesty, right? Or are you being selective? I've heard the 500B number, never have seen it proven or the entire story behind it. Maybe Obamacare did strip it of 500B to help pay for everyone elses HC, then knowing the gov would be required to pay elder HC as needed and replace teh 500B. I dunno, make an argument, I'd love to read it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I thought it would be and will become even more as time goes on. You are correct, but not in the way you think. There are a multitude of problems that needed covering that were not covered by the health care bill that the Republicans wanted in but the democrats shut out, like tort reform, portability across state lines and what not. What obamacare did was cater to the pharmaceutical companies, health care HMO's, mandated that everyone buy it, and gave the IRS the ability to enforce it. So in a way, ya, it didn't go far enough to fix the problems. I would have to see how the poll was worded. No one is denying it needs fixed."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying.

There are a multitude of problems that needed covering that were not covered by the health care bill that the Republicans wanted in but the democrats shut out, like tort reform, portability across state lines and what not. Portability is addressed isn't it? If we have descent coverage then it isn't a huge issue, is it? Tort reform = civil immunity, I don't want that either. QuoteWhat obamacare did was cater to the pharmaceutical companies, health care HMO's, mandated that everyone buy it, and gave the IRS the ability to enforce it. It also created the preexisting conds clause; the real only important aspect of it to me. I'm not crazy about what was passed either, the HC Bill was a product of both sides (and some within each side) pulling crap off of it until it was bearable. I don;t think it's real reform, but it's a start and the preexisters is a good clause as well as the ins cos not cancelling you ar setting ceilings on coverage. It's a real good start, not nearly done. QuoteSo in a way, ya, it didn't go far enough to fix the problems. I would have to see how the poll was worded. No one is denying it needs fixed. I agree, I would liek to see it too. I do think that as times get tougher and tougher, peopel will become more fond of it.

Some aspects of the bill leave a bad taste in my mouth. (requirement to purchase health coverage, 1099 reporting, etc.) Most of those could have been avoided by going to a single payer system, though. They also could have been avoided if the repubes had been willing to come to the table and discuss real reform, instead of simply screaming NO and using everything they could to their political advantage. Nobody should have to worry about losing everything they and their family have worked for due to an illness or injury. This is a real concern with our current system, which before the various reforms come in to play still allows insurance companies to rescind coverage after an occurrence with no cause.
