The irrationalism presented by the Insurance Industry is life negative.

Do these people live in a vacuum? Are they not affected by the health, happines, and productivity of their fellow man?

Their argument makes as much sense as cutting off the blood supply to your foot because it was involved in a sprain at one point in it's life.

3. I couldn't help but notice all the empty chairs during that Congressional Hearing.

:(

I wonder if that's what 1.4 million dollars a day will buy?

Thanks for the thread, Joanne.

4. It's pure and simple greed

As a former health care giver, I am shocked and saddened to see what has become of health care in America. $ 1. 4 million is being spent per day in DC by the health care lobbyists so your elected representative is getting taken care of and has quality health care we pay for and can't afford ourselves for our families, I know what is deemed, defended and supported in Tennessee and Virginia as quality health care and clearly profit care comes ahead of patient care. http://www.wisecountyissues.com/?p=62 MRSA ( methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureas ) is infesting our communities because filthy, uncaring hospitals and emergency rooms are breeding them and spreading them into our schools, homes, restaurants. How many more Americans' will be diseased or die while 74 % of Americans' are begging for health care reform ? More people died in America last year from MRSA complications than AIDS. When MRSA and a flu bug start mixing, it won't be pretty and we are being infected by the very health care system we depend on and trust to keep us safe and healthy.
