“What we are looking at right now is private insurance reform( for the worse). We may never see anything close to real health care reform, because as it is right now, we don't actually have a healtch care system. What we have is an unregulated for profit insurance system that is aimed as making money, not caring for anything.”

“The problem is we are under the illusion that we elected "progressive democratic party". WRONG. The party has progressives, moderates and conservatives, not to mention corporate whores.
The real problem is that the democratic party is moderate and the republican party is right wing and conservative, and they are both owned by the corporations. We need a LIBERAL PARTY!!!!”

Do you think that even-richer monopolies that have government-enforced customers let them go?
We had our chance. Things will not get better with this crop. Every single Democrat in office needs to go - the wimpy progressives and the bought-out "centrists ." Any Democratic Senator could have filibustered this bill. The progressives could have stood together. They all failed us.”

“Some lefties are no better than righties in the sense that if you don't do things exactly like they want, when they want, they turn on you. No foresight, no vision, no big picture. Just NOW NOW NOW. Sad.
I have to remind people that we have to work with the system we HAVE, not the one we want or wish to create. We have to deal with private insurance since they are the ones who pretty much own the market. We have to play ball with them and see what's best deal we can get for our people.
What we need to be pushing for is Campaign Finance Reform so that the politicians can get their hands out of industry pockets. We let our democracy turn into a Corporate-ocracy and we wonder why our elected officials and kissing corporate behind.”
