I have good healthcare, Im not going to march to have it taken away.

Go to the local VA and report back if you still support government ran healthcare. It might take you a couple weeks to report back though if you actually decide to wait to see the doctor before reporting back.

When has the goverment ever run something within thier budget?

Exactly. Canada's public healthcare is a f'ing disaster. The UK's public healthcare is a f'ing disaster. How the hell do these clowns thing we can do it?

THEY sure do take their time. The only thing that is ever quick is when they want your money.

You better delete it then because I think that's offensive. It's not socialism.

[A//// Guy]

It pretty much is.

[polishmafia]

A govt run public option... I'm down for that. I can pay for it with my money thats insured by the FDIC or mail my payments using the USPS!

Oh wait... USPS is going under, and so is your govt insured money.

[Matt D.]

Yes, let's march for something we know nothing about!

Obama, our pied piper.

[tpunx99GSX]

You Guys are so typical when it comes to your conservative views. The Government will not take away your current healthcare and never has stated that. Im fucking getting sick of all the obama haters. I mean seriously get fucking over it. HE IS YOUR PRESIDENT and that will not change.

[A//// Guy]

Tom, do some research on how health care in Canada and the UK works. Or, actually, doesnt.

You can be all for obama, I dont care, but Goverment control of health care is just scary.

[FattyBoomBatty]

Government control of the roads and highways isn't so bad, you all seem to like it fairly well. Everything that Obama has done so far has been met with great criticism and hate, yet when implemented, people don't really have a problem with it because it doesn't take away from their lives or impact them negatively (at least not anywhere near as much as fox news or rush limbaugh would have you believe). Yes, I know it's still is early in his presidency, but that's how it seems to me.

Thats exactly how it is. Fox News and all of the republicans have met him with such hate and yet he has tried to reach out to the Republicans and others yet it doesnt matter what he does he will be wrong and wont ever do right.
Its like the speech he is planning on doing at schools and once he announced he was going to schools republicans were like "OMG HES TRYING TO BRAINWASH OUR CHILDREN!!!" And then he releases the agenda and its all about telling kids to stay in school. And they come out and say "Well... um no matter what i dont want him speaking to my kids"
Republicans are not even giving him a chance to suceed, AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD, you know who you are. Give the man a break and let him at least try.
To a/// GUY, I have done much research on the subject at hand, and there are always two sides to every story. Some people love the healthcare in canada. Austria and Germany are also two countries whom i have spoken with people from both of those countries and both agree that Austria and German have SUPERIOR healthcare then america. Dont fucking give in to the voices on talk radio "BRAINWASHING" you into thinking the Universal Healthcare is going to take away your current healthcare plan, Assign death panels to decide who must die and who shall live, and that your government will run your life. (more than it already does)
The Health care plan is not about taking away, its about giving every american the right to live a healthy life, investing in preventative healthcare, allowing for clinics to open that are all about preventative screening of cancers, and other diseases.
Socialised healthcare will only help those who are willing to let it. To the rest of you keep your overpriced healthcare. Just dont get sick, you wont be covered.

Other than Matt D, I didn't really see anyone say anything bad about Obama. I can't speak for everyone, but my goal isn't to smear the presidents name, and again other than Matt D, none of individuals who posted before you said anything about Obama, so I don't understand where you come up with calling us Obama haters?

Plain and simple, I just don't agree with this plan. I don't like how Social Healthcare works in any of the other countries that do it, and I don't like how our own goverment runs it's current medical programs (again VA hospitals ). So I don't like the idea of it expanding it's control to a larger scale.

That's it, no Obama hate from me. Just don't agree with this idea.
