30 million people owing their souls to the insurance company store...

:rant:

Sure, you don't have to buy insurance, but we will make your life miserable if you don't.

This is what we get with no public option.

I was once a member of that 30 million, now I have a grind the wheat worker bee job with insurance rates rising each year.

I know how much it sucks if you have something wrong with you and you can't afford to see a doctor. And going to the ER isn't an option because they don't treat the symptoms.

If this pile of tripe passes, life for 30 million people gets that much harder and that much more controlled.

Didn't pay your forced payment for insurance? Well, pay this fine! What? you can't pay the fine? Well, then, here's your orange jump suit to work with your fellow non-payers.

WTF?

The Insurance corps new motto: Squeezing more out of the poor than ever before!

we went from single payer to public option to buy into medicare to this colossally huge stinking pile of bullshit.

It's always been about making the insurance corps compete. Period. If those bastards have no competition, we the people, get nothing. NOTHING.

I'm beginning to think that that secret agreement that the "gang of 10" made was more bullshit and puffery to try and convince and already skeptical public that they are actually doing something.

Nothing, a big fucking zero came out of that "secret meeting".

I'm not quite done with these morons just yet, but, damn, I'm getting pretty fucking close.

The 30 million are gonna get squeezed, shaken and stirred til all the money drops out of their pockets. Then they head for the couch for any loose change that might have become lodged in there.

3. hey there JavaMan - The penalties only amount to

One Hundred and Sixty six billion dollars and will be collected between 2013 and 2019,once the program is up and running.

It's not all that much to help the government executives, agency heads and law makers subsidize the process of helping out their friends in the Medical Industries.

And that way they can continue to hire lobbyists and maybe the lobbyists can figure out some other ways to rape us and kill our puppies!

But hey - at least it is the Dems who organized the rape and the puppy murder. It would really stick in our craw if it was A REPUGLICAN Congress and President doing this to us, wouldn't it?

Steal from the poor and give to the rich. Un-fucking-believable.
