Thank you Emma. Thank you very much, well said :) I have no health insurance and I don't want a freakin public option. I want to get my own insurance (when I can afford it) from private companies that have good ol competition dictating prices, not some government crap. Government sucks at running anything other than military operations or taxes (... Read Moreand they aren't AMAZING at taxes either). If you think your premiums are too high consider switching companies or looking into a high deductible insurance plan. I think a LOT of people would save money on health care costs if they would switch to high deductible insurance with an option for an HSA.

Rock the Vote We were on Capitol Hill today with members of Congress to announce that a key provision that will allow you to stay on your parents health insurance until the age of 27 will be included in the health care legislation being voted on now. This is huge and a great step to make sure all young people are covered. http://awe.sm/28or

If your parents are over 45 and lose thier job you all lose your health insurance and the cost is $1,700 a month to keep the family covered as before. If someone gets sick you lose the house, college, retirement (your parents will have to live with YOU). If government runs health insurance your on the board with one vote. The current non system ... Read Moreis corporate slavery. .... THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN ANY OTHER COUNTRY!!!!!!! You lose your job and get sick. All you have to worry about is getting better.
