Arianna Discusses Health Reform, State Of The Nation: 'The Lobbyists Are Winning'
Commented Dec 17, 2009 at 12:37:49 in Politics
“if we kill this bill then we are still killing people our selfs right? this is what the experts like arianna and dean and olbermann keep telling us. if we start over then want hundreds of more people die? when in the hell did we every in life get everything we wanted?we have never been this close before get this bill and then work our ass off to keep making it better just like we crying our ass off about killing it. come on people i will listen to arianna and the rest of the cable talking heads if they run for office and do the things they say they will do but until then i will stick with the guy who i voted for not some ego .”

“If we want to start over (and do it right) it means we want hundreds of people to die??? Where does the logic in this statement exist?”

“If this passes, the Insurance companies will get everything they wanted.
Thats more so the problem. Right now, the Insurance companies have everything they want, and that is the problem. They profit insanely from the sick, and are cut throat about their coverage.
The biggest problem is forcing people to now pay these people or be fined. What are the realistic chances that insurance companies will lower their rates after the government forces everyone to pay for insurance?
Does that mean everyone will have to pay $1,110 a month? Thats what I currently pay for private insurance. Its a great plan, but I need it and if I lost it... I would be in serious trouble thanks to existing health conditions. And I really am having trouble budgeting it right now. 10 years ago it used to be $250. Meanwhile, wages have not increased that much in 10 years.
So the question remains... Will my bill go down under this law? Or will it simply make it illegal for me to not pay it.
If my bill were to go down, how far would it go?
I think what everyone is concerned about is... trusting an insurance industry that is already raping us financially for profit.
Will my bill go down? I highly doubt it. I think thats where most people are with this. Where is the "reform"”

“It's not reform if there is no competition, the insurance company is allowed to hike prices on the elderly and the general public is forced to buy insurance or go to jail.
What the heck are you talking about? People aren't going to buy health insurance when they can't afford it.
Wake up!”

“Why are you screaming?
Anyway, there is a difference between experts who agree with you and those who don't. It is a mistake to dismiss those who disagree with you since they may have a point that you missed.”

“i wish for once someone gets the black man point of view its not just the black women point of view all black men are not morons and love thier black women, my father and mother loved each other i have brothers who love thier wives and i have never been married but i respect my black women the msm have never put the real black man in a good light and we dislike rap music also and crime .this post seem to me is that this black woman she thanks like the rest if you have i good job great education you deserve love becuase of that, thats not life thats some tv show and people in other races would be better then a black man is a myth also if that was so why are they looking for mates all the time too, this is bs black wemen turn off the tv stop reading the so call reports becuase what you got don't make you happy no matter what race you are from and if you think this about love bs this is about social status and its about you not love and this is not the black man fault but as always make the black man the scape goat and this gos for black men too who cliam that they can't find a good black women the truth is you doint what a black man or women thats ok but don't blame the black man .”

“Lennix, please don't view this article as a put down to black men, but the people and stories she reference are the reason for the blog. She is speaking to the fact that love is still attainable even if you are a educated black woman. She speaking to the black woman to say there is marriage material in black men and asking our black women to keep the lines open to attracting and marrying that black man while others speak of seeking it elsewhere.
She speaks of not apologizing because we are educated or the very fact that we are being ask to choose between love and education. If you choose education you can't have a black man or the only way to get a nonblack man is to be educated, as my grandmother would say "the devil is a liar and the truth ain't in him". Don't fall for the hype we black women love us some black men.”

“The reason is because the Black church is so against homosexuality and the Black and Latino communities probably ARE the reason that these people lost their equal rights -- although you are correct White Evangelical "Christians" pretend believers in Jesus (who never said a word against homosexuals) certainly deep-sixed equal rights for our gay citizens.”
