Public Option

[Old Codger]

We need that badly if it ends up a government run health care that is fine with me, we have had a corporate run system and it is a dismal failure they had their chance.... Fair even choices for all Americans not just for the elite...A system that offers total coverage with a reasonable cost based on ability to pay, period no ifs and or buts, just do it, tell the party of no to get lost, kiss them goodbye,quit kissing their asses.

1. I looked at different rate plans

for people that can't get insurance from where they work. The price for two people started at 350.00 - 700.00 per month in my area. That would be fine if we stopped eating or stopped making the house payment. You would think they would be worried their gig is up if the don't lower their prices. But they are so arrogant it doesn't seem to bother them.

2. You got it

They really don't care about us lowly peons, we do not matter to them at all.

3. You would think they would

fear government take over and reduce their rates to stay alive. They don't seem the least bit worried. They don't think national health care has a chance.

4. Nah

Big businesses like insurance and banking do not fear government, the only ones who really need to fear government is us little fellas.
