Unfortunately, the sick, the poor and the elderly are not profitable groups to insure at affordable rates. As Former Cigna Exec, Wendell Potter, concludes,we need a public option.

I for one don’t see why health insurance companies are being treated so sacred for any other reason than them bribing Congressional leaders. Single payer is really the true option because it will not only cut administrative costs which are 1/3 of the entire costs in our current crappy system, but it will also remove the burden that American companies are forced to pay for now. American companies shift many jobs oversees because they cannot afford to compete with other countries where companies aren’t held down by providing healthcare. It is a win for taxpayers in our pocketbooks and stimulating the economy.

Further, the Congresswomen would be well served by visiting the CHOC hospitial, a mile from here house and explaining that visiting the emergency room for the flu is a BAD CHOICE.

Boy, she seems to be talking out her mouth, both sides of it.

Last month I paid $392.99 towards the premium for my health insurance. My former employer picked up the of the tab which was 60% of the total cost. I did not use my health insurance last month, however, United Healthcare had enough money to pay $1.4 million/day to a lobbyist to convince Congress that we don’t need no stinking public option. United Healthcare could have put that premium to better use by providing better coverage instead of dishing out money to lobbyists.

And when they don’t vote for this, we need to make sure they know they will not be re-elected. And we need to at least not be too lazy to email or write these people and let them know they had better vote for the public plan. If we are too lazy to let them know, then we cannot complain when we don’t get the plan we want.

We need to understand the people we elect are OWNED BY BIG CORPORATIONS. All of them think and believe they owe us only what the lobbyists will let them give us. The Senate and Congress are truly the best money can buy.

These DINO’s are undoubtedly trying to protect their political careers over the interests and needs of a large majority of the Nation. They are relying on healthcare lobby money for re-election campaigns and coddling their conservative bases while trying to act all Democratic like. Bunch of two-faced no good Republic-lites. 2010 will assuredly weed out the herd.

Here in Australia, I have the option of buying private coverage if I wish, giving me a tax deduction.

How simple is that ?

Dear Tommy,
Should we pressure Congress or Obama on this?

Because nothing says Bush White House like secrecy, NO?
Will Obama continue this charade?

Follow the yellow brick road…
… And remember, at the end, there’s a man hiding behind a big curtain.

Shall we open it?

keep the pressure on, it’s working

Sanchez has broken ground with this move. Now we must keep up the pressure on the rest of them.

My words, exactly…

‘If you don’t vote to support a public option in health care reform, you will not only lose my vote; you will lose the vote of each individual I convince you’re not worthy of voting for. I will work tirelessly at this until November, 2010.’
