You’re honestly talking about things you don’t know.
Triage=not what you’re referring to it as.
So you’re saying that since I have insurance now, that I wont have to pay a penny more of taxes? El oh el
Maybe you don’t know how this economy thing works. Because If people with insurance dont have to pay more taxes, that means they will be taxing the poor without insurance, effectively making them pay for insurance(This is not how it works, if you knew anything about this bill)
They are taxing people’s insurance policies also, have you read or watched anything on the subject?
Hospitals are required to treat people and to get them stable.
Tax payers do not pay for the uninsured. Insured people end up paying for them, in higher healthcare costs. Why do you seem to think tax payers are paying for them
Okay the triage argument i heard on talk radio on the way home today. Just got home and probably should have researched it a bit more before arguing the points about it LOL but that aside…
they are taxing the retardedly huge “GOLD” plans that insurance companies have. YE OLE spreading the wealth around.(big issue with conservatives, me not so much) There will be tax cuts to small businesses and Old farts can afford more meds.
If insurance companies are going to drop like flies because of this, why then are their stocks going up?
“Even if Republicans scored a 1994 style landslide in November, how many votes could we muster to re-open the “doughnut hole” and charge seniors more for prescription drugs? How many votes to re-allow insurers to rescind policies when they discover a pre-existing condition? How many votes to banish 25 year olds from their parents’ insurance coverage”
In a few months do you really think people are going to be voting for someone that will take all that away?
I think some of you conservatives just want this to fail, a total collapse of the health industry, because that’s the only way republicans will get any substantial ground in 2010. People are angry but that will subside when they notice how cheap their meds are.
