How can progressive Democrats argue for health care reform in a few words? A sound clip that can play everywhere and help people understand what we are trying to accomplish.
How about playing Abba's "Waterloo". Face the facts, accept defeat and admit Sen DeMint was right.
Sen Jim DeMint : ""If we're able to stop Obama on [health care reform], it will be his Waterloo. It will break him and we will show that we can, along with the American people, begin to push those freedom solutions that work in every area of our society."
I don't trust insurance companies and I don't trust government. The health care debate has been a tough one for me. I hope it doesn't die!
I like these ideas:
1. A private nonprofit co-op
2. A law banning insurance companies from excluding or dropping for preexisting conditions.
3. Portability when you move between jobs
4. Denial of claims reform. All research done before the first premium check is cashed. After that the insurance company should be on the hook
5. Government regulation--a nonpartizan nonpolitical group to police the lecherous insurance industry
If the system is about to collapse as he would like everyone to believe, then he should be WAY ahead of the rest of us on this. He campaigned for 2+ years and he's been in office 7 months.
isn't the health care proposal just a pay for medicaid program?.......everyone knows that medicaid insurance gets you the worst medical care there is ...and government wants to open up an option for millions to pay for their own personal coverage?........shouldn't government improve the health care insurance program they have now before screwing more americans
