• I was listening to the news last night regarding Nation Wide Health Care.... I don't get it - why would anyone fight this?
  Wouldn't it be the most wonderful thing if every woman - man - child had an opportunity to have medical care?
  I have friends in Canada and I have never heard them complain about their Nation Wide Health Care once.... We have state wide health care in Minnesota called MN Care - I used it before, no complaints.....
  So why can't this group of adult politicians sit down and make this happen for us? Seems there's only one party not in agreement.... and that's the party getting the reimbursement/support from the pharmaceutical & such companies....
  It really makes you wonder who we should believe.... the ones that are standing up for "We the People" or the ones representing one of the wealthiest corporation scams in America....
  Just saying.....

  • Wraith  Using the same scenario above, only changing the annual income to $50,000 per year, that family of two will pay $8349 annual premium. Or $695.75 per month.

  • Wraith  Live as best you can, do you think when the politicians say they are in touch with Americans, they are talking about the hard-working person? Many of those preaching that message, make per day what those workers make a year.

  • S.  This is a good thing, be upset and frustrated with what is going, turen it into action. Contact your congressmen and other leaders. Unite and make them work for you. Join lobbyist groups that are against large corporations running our government.
