if you read all 1881 pages it violates all of the 1st 10 ammendments to the constitution

The whole thing scares me to death! Why can't they leave those who have healthcare alone and set up more help for those who can't get it? Medicare and all the gov sponsored help are crap now, why do they think they can make it work for everyone! It is scary!!!

I don't want to pay more for health insurance. I would prefer a reform bill that would reduce overall medical costs.

[Community]

I like my health care. Why don't they try tort reform, it won't save enough but it's a start, get rid of the illegal aliens that are abusing the system and regulate rates. Why ruin what works for most working folks to give more of my hard earned money to welfare people?

Just take a look at anything the government does. It cost too much and doesn't work

[waquilter]

If congress has bankrupted social security and medicare what make anyone think they can deliver health care without raising taxes and fees substantially.

I don't think it's in the best interest of the people. The health care system does need some revising, but not this way.

[John Q. Citizen]

We can't aford it.

$8300 Government Health Insurance

According to the Congressional Budget Office
the public option premium costs for a family of
four with an income of $66000 would be $8300.

Here is a link to a letter from the Director of the
Congressional Budget Office to Rep. Charles Rangel
dated Nov.2 that contains a table outlining the cost
of the public option.

Obama has no plan to reduce medical expenditures.
