I am self-employed. I started consulting 10 years ago and paid less than $200/month for *good* insurance. Now I pay over $800/month for AWFUL insurance. I would like to be able to join a large group of people and purchase good coverage at a reasonable price. So far, a "public option" seems the best way to do that. If congress can come up with a ... Read Moreplan that gets me better care at lower cost, feel free to raise my taxes! If I could buy into Medicare A&B (<$600/month at current rates) that would be better than what I have now. Hey, my taxes could go up over $200/month before it would make a difference in my finances. I live in Person County. In District 13. Please vote for reform.

Brad Miller "Rep. Brad Miller (D-N.C.), the lead backer of the CFPA in the House Financial Services Committee, recalled the Greenspan opposed consumer protections while he was chairman. "It's a dramatic turnaround from his public position and even more so, apparently, from what he was privately pushing within the deliberations at the Fed," he told HuffPost."

A keystone of Obama's Wall Street reform agenda is getting support from the unlikeliest of corners. Alan Greenspan, an acolyte of Ayn Rand and extreme free-marketeer, is backing one of the most far-reaching elements of the financial overhaul: the Consumer Financial Protection Agency.

I think legislators should be required have/use or participate in any health care reform they legislate. If this is the case, the people may get something worthwhile.

Just learned today that in 41 states, single adults, no matter how poor, don't qualify for Medicaid! "Corporate health care" is soooo much better than 'government health care". We only ration by eliminating entire populations of folks, unlike those commie French, who cover everyone! And the Brits - hell, they won't give a 90 year old certain ... Read Morecancer treatments and we call THAT rationing? When we condemn thousands to NO basic care at all? And yet they LIVE LONGER than we do, so they must be doing something right!
