Its time our elected democrats stood tall an pushed healthcare reform

[luckyleftyme2]

It is time that our elected democrats stood tall and pushed back. No more letting the right set the agenda-that's why we elected you! stand up and be counted- push back!we elected you because we were sick of the gridlock and one way policies of the right! If you don't have the back bone to stand up resign!
right now 1 0f every 6 dollars is spent on healthcare. I n15 years 1 in every 3 will be spent if we don't act now.
so past it as democrats;show you got will and spine! this will break the grid lock of the right and bring them to the table!
reform is needed ,needed now and needed for the country!

2. "reform is needed"

What kind of reform? Does it matter?

3. It should.

But so many are desperate to simply be covered that they want no more than to know they will get a subsidy and a drop of preexisting clauses.

Which goes to how bad the system is, that many would be satisfied by such minimal standards.

Every other citizen of an industrialized country would be horrified if this is all they got for their health care. Only Americans are expected to live like this.

4. Republicans are closing down Medicare...just to make a point..

kill grandma with their right-wing madness... but $14 Billion a month for 2 un-declared wars?

No problem.

5. Yep. Public Option Single Payer or Bust !

Bust of course meaning a busted Democratic Party which seems to be the direction
the current leadership is intent on arriving at.
