Somebody call Guinness, that might possibly be the longest written thought in the history of English, but it didn't end with a period or a question mark, maybe it'll continue.

fuck her. corzine is out...no more payments for welfare babies., move to Kalifornistan if you want to have welfare babies

get the fuck out

Just a tad bit harsh for you, no?

wall....you seem like an honest, free thinker, how do you see the health bill?? Just curious.

I think it is a big mess..we waited way too long for taking action and now we are going to pay for it.

If the original Clinton push had gone through, the real cost would have been lower than waiting for eight years.

My thoughts are that the free markets arent getting it right, pricing is not stable, health care inflation outpaces general inflation by a 3-4 X margin, and that is the sign that the markets are not performing their function properly and intervention is necessary..

Unfortunately the intervention is no better than the free markets failure. The government cannot do much of anything right, including auditing or regulating anything and I have little confidence in them getting this correct either.

Bottom line, I support giving people health care, even undeserving people because if anything we are spending money on, I think healthcare is more worthy than 90% plus of our current spending.

What should have happened is the medicare rate should have followed the rate of health care inflation and we should have been paying MORE into the system and that would have slowed inflation.

I also think there will need to be rules and restrictions to this, which will not be executed properly and will fail to slow the inflation we have seen over the last 25 years.

Its a bad time to commit to this expense given how we failed for the last eight years to be fiscally responsible so this will only add to our current situation and will make things worse. The time to have taken action was when we were flush with cash and not in the middle of this financial hole.

The longer we wait to intervene the free market failure the higher and higher the cost will be, the longer we contribute LESS to Medicare, the worse it will be.

Apache, I say this to you personally and others who are through the system (meaning you are older than most here) you should have been paying MORE to the system all along, and given that Medicare has been underfunded for 25 years, unfortunately you will get less and less benefits at a higher and higher cost. Nobody wants to pay for things, you included..and that lack of taking current action to a future problem is why we are in this mess now.
