Last I checked, the polls said that the majority of people supported this health care initiative.
My only problem is that this bill doesn't go far enough. Personally, I want a full, single payer system with supplemental care offered to those who want and can afford it. You know, like Germany does. This current plan is being designed by politicians who have been bought and paid for by the insurance companies. They aren't going to let their highly paid congress-critters vote against their interests.
I want a plan that makes the insurance companies angry. I want one that makes them freaking TERRIFIED. I want them to know that they can no longer take premiums for years and years and years, and then deny Grandma cancer treatment after decades of regular payment because they'll play the odds that the family will give up the suit or settle for pennies on the dollar than it would have cost for the actual treatment costs.
I want this done, because I am tired of seeing people not getting treatment for completely treatable disorders and injuries because they can't afford it or don't have access to it. It's sick, wrong, and immoral that we, the supposedly most giving nation on the planet, refuses to take care of it's own people.
