But don't you pay attention to WHAT he is trying to do? You don't have to stick by him just because you voted for him. We put people in office to represent us, not to rule us as dictators. The majority of the country does not want the government involved in healthcare, our president should listen and stop trying to force his agenda.

Leave medicare alone.

Obama can't fix health care but Congress can. They need to pass laws to reform health insurance:

1. No coverage denied or canceled for sickness.
2. Eliminate pre-existing condition clauses
3. No cap on pay-outs
4. Preventive services covered
5. Co-ops for people not covered by employers

That all sounds real nice, but you see how they're proposing it gets paid for, right? Cutting billions from Medicare, forcing individuals who don't care to have insurance, to buy it anyway or pay fees, and eventually, there will be rationing, it is the only way to cover the expenses of "covering" everyone for everything.

This is a free market country not a socialist society..Allow the insurance companies to compete across state lines, put tort reform into place to limit lawsuits. This will allow costs to become competitive through natural competition between companies thus allowing for greater affordability and many more American families obtaining coverage. The elimination of frivolous lawsuits through Tort reform will greatly reduce what the medical profession needs to charge. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Concentrate only on a method to insure that anyone left uncovered will be able to get medical attention when needed. WE DONT NEED ANOTHER SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION OR ANYTHING ELSE LIKE THAT THAT WILL BE MADE A CLUSTER BY GOVERNMENT....This is a government of the PEOPLE, by the PEOPLE, and for the PEOPLE! Not a government for the GOVERNMENT, by the GOVERNMENT, and for the GOVERNMENT!! Wake up Mr President, Wake up Congress and listen to what the PEOPLE are saying, this will be your last term in office if you don't, you Will be voted OUT
