Health Care- Now(Passed)

lol Micheal Steel told Geraldo on Fox "Your smoking something illegal if you think its only going to cost 1.2 trillion."

well, it's looking like we're getting socialised meds they got the 218 votes they needed. Looks like we need to vote out a lot of democrats and one republican sell out.

Nothing yet. It still has to be reconciled with the Senate bill, which means there's still a long ways to go.

Final margin: 220-215.

The senate holds the future of america in their hands with this bill and the cap and trade bill.

They pass those two bills and it's over for america...if it's not already.

GET THE LONE REPUBLICAN... =P
"Joseph" Cao from Louisiana was the lone Republican

Just my feelings on this. If they pass this . . . . healthcare bill, I think that'll open the door for them to pass the cap & tax bill. Again, this is just my take on this. If health care passes the powers will feel that theirs no fight left in us and cap & tax'll go through.

Anh "Joseph" Cao from Louisiana was the lone Republican Yea vote.

Hey, I honestly don't fully understand all of whats going. I do try and follow but I was wondering if someone can summarize my situation...

I work 4 jobs off the clock.
Dog Walking, house sitting, free-lance web design etc..
I don't have any medical coverage. Can't afford it.
I can barely afford my rent.
How am I effected?
Am I screwed?

Please change the title of this thread to reflect that we are no longer talking about a live debate...it has passed.

If they can reconcile it with the Senate bill and whatever comes out of that process passes both chambers, we're basically up **** creek without a paddle.

That said, I'm still skeptical that they'll actually be able to craft a bill that can pass both houses of Congress.

The dems just voted for forced vaccinations for everyone, swine flu or not. This is due to a few clauses that state - If you want to continue getting health care, you need to have up to date vaccinations. What the hell is about to happen people?

Since the jails no longer use actual soapbars and changed to powdered soap, I guess I am going to learn how to make weapons out of other things to get accustomed to the jail life. I think Ican get away with rocking the color orange, hopefully they dont put me in a pink suit. With that said, I will probably see a lot of you upstate, maybe some of you can be my cellmates, cause there is no damn way I am going along with this.
Once again, the Govt. can Kiss my poop shooter.

Reminds me of one of the quotes from Married with children "thank your father kids...THANKS DAD"

May I ask what MOTB means? I'm sorry I just don't know. I've never heard the term before.

Anyone know why the democrats presser stands behind 6 us flags? and not say 1? or 2? or 5?

Well, it is my understanding that you will have to prove to a bureaucrat that you can not afford health insurance, either private or the "public option". If you are able to prove that you will get the "public option" at no cost to you. If the bureaucrat decides you are able to afford coverage, you will either buy it or be subjected to fines, about equal to the cost of coverage. Don't pay the fines, go to jail.

With that said, this will still have to get through the Senate, with whatever changes they decide to make. Then, back to the House, with those changes. By then, it could be unrecognizable to the current bill.
