Think POSITIVE- This bill will mandate future health care reform.

[Union Yes]

How will it mandate future health care reform?

Out of control rising private health insurance rates will mandate near future real reform. We will have no choice but to continue working toward real reform.

A strong PO for all or Medicare/SPUHC for all.

Pass this piece of shit now and roll up our sleeves and start fixing it tomorrow. It appears HC reform will be an ongoing 10-20 year fight/process.

Passing this piece of shit will start the process of reform. None of us really like it but it's a start.

Pass it and let's began the real work of one day bringing real health care reform to all.

I don't like it as it stands but I support it. It's a start.

1. This is a start, a start I haven't seen happen in my 52 years on this planet.

I pity the fools who cry that it doesn't go far enough.

Of course it doesn't go far enough.

That it doesn't go far enough is no reason to kill it.

Pass the bill and keep pushing for full reform.

2. NJ's evil republican governor Christie has shown that union members would have to be crazy

to not do everything in their power to keep republicans out of office. The evil bastard has been vindictive and ruthless on his attacks on Unions.

3. There is no "mandate" for future reform: there is only a mandate for individual purchases with

no cost controls.

Your OP is deceptive and "thinking positive" is for those who are ignoring the facts.

4. I would like to think positive

But frankly the ones benefiting most AGAIN are the billionaire companies. I do not believe anything will be "fixed" in our favor, until the politicians are no longer purchased by the corporations.
