You still haven't stated any facts that back up your opinion that the bill is a bad idea. I'm asking you now, not asking to review your old posts
on threads you feel are the same. Itemize some stuff directly from the bill and elaborate on your take on them if you feel you are so in the
right...or do you want to just come up with a different insult this time?
Keep in mind, I didn't say anywhere that I fully support this bill. I've simply been pointing out the lies that are being used to go against it
such as the author of the article in the OP did. I'm sure there is something better that can come out of a real discussion. But as long as everyone
keeps flinging insults, rhetoric, & speculation around instead of actual solutions, we'll keep doing the round & round.
So if you have any actual factual data that might inform people on what the effect of the bill will do, like the email sent out by Senator Kucinich
states, share it:
The Administration plan requires that everyone must have health insurance, so it is delivering tens of millions of new "customers" to the
insurance companies. Health care? Not really. Insurance care! Absolutely. Cost controls? No chance.
You will next hear talk about "co-ops." The truth is that insurance company campaign contributions have co-opted the public interest.
I need your help to spread the word and rally the nation around true health care reform which covers everyone and maintains fiscal integrity without
breaking our nation's bank! Your contribution will empower our efforts to continue to fight for the single-payer, not-for-profit health care bill,
HR676 "Medicare for All," which I co-authored with Rep. John Conyers. The bill now has 85 sponsors in the House.
The hotly-debated HR3200, the so-called "health care reform" bill, is nothing less than corporate welfare in the guise of social welfare and reform.
It is a convoluted mess. The real debate which we should be having is not occurring.
Maybe you should stop assuming anyone who doesn't agree with your presentation (because it comes off as antagonistic for the sake of it) is your
enemy.
