Real fair... Isn't that, oh, let me see, IGNORANT?
And what is the motto at ATS?
Deny ignorance.
Deny the ignorant thought that someone should not be allowed to strike back at someone who is denouncing their plan...

Universal health care does not mean universal popularity; let's be straight on that.
So, if you're against it, fine by me.

Many people need this; they do not have the money to pay for another accident or sickness. It works if it is done right, so that's what all of us should be working towards.
How is it fair and balanced that opponents of health care get to call his plan socialist
that his plan will lead to death panels and such
but when Obama says he will call them out on the the fact they're brandying fear, why is he bad?

The system that sucks, the system EVERYONE SAYS THAT BLOWS, is being praised by people who are against Obama's plan.
I find it difficult to understand why anyone would oppose the changes he is speaking of when it wont affect your coverage or your insurance choices in any way.

You used a double negative so I guess your agreeing with everything I've said.
Either that or you need another English course. In either case fantastic.

He DOES intend to force private coverage out and install a "single payer (government) system

How is he going to force an insurance option out?
First of all I thought the government was incompetent last I heard and agreed with.
The Congressional Budget Office says the bill will add $1 trillion to the deficit. That means the government would be providing $1 trillion of services that they WON'T be able to pay for. (They make up the difference by printing more money, driving the value of everyone else's money DOWN. It's called "inflation" and it's coming real soon!)
The only way I could see that happening is if they get priced out -
Once private doctors, carriers and other providers are gone, you will not have any choice.
And people will have the choice to chose what works best for them.
We won't be able to. That's one reason people oppose the "public option."
Maybe all of you should just keep your private insurance and the problem will be solved.
Just because there is a PUBLIC bus on my corner doesn't mean I can't call a cab or buy a car.
