		<description>I&#039;m a little frustrated that nobody threw page 16 of the bill back into her face.  &lt;strong&gt;This bill does not allow choices, it outlaws insurance companies from issueing new premiums on the day the law is enacted.  Tsongas is flat out lying when she says we are going to be given a choice.&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;page 16
10    (1) LIMITATION ON NEW ENROLLMENT.-
           (A)  IN GENERAL- Except as provided in this pararagraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day of Y1.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Now somebody please tell my how it is I have choice when the insurance companies can&#039;t issue a new policy.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;And I made a choice based on what I was willing to pay for and what made sense in terms of coverage for me and my family. &lt;em&gt;This is essentially what we are creating for the American people. We are creating greater choice. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Which brings us back to the original question. If it&#039;s so good, then why wont you be on it? Are you going to answer or continue shoveling BS?

If not, then you&#039;re fired. We don&#039;t tolerate evasive and insubordinate employees.</description>

		<description>That last speaker was the perfect target for the media to investigate and find out exactly who she is, who her grandmother was, and why health care needs reform.

When homeless people die in emergencies rooms and it makes global news, I&#039;d like to know who this obvious shills grandmother was and how she died of breast cancer because it was a pre-existing condition.

Gee.  She covered it all, didn&#039;t she?  People dying because they can&#039;t see a doctor.  Breast cancer.  Grandmother.

Who was this woman and how much did her family not love her enough to pay these hard hearted doctors who refused to see her?

I would have mortgaged my house to save my grandmother.</description>

		<description>Choices.  Sure.  For lower-income working people, in a few years the only choice will be Uncle Sam HMO.  What small business is going to pay for private insurance if its workers can just go on the public dime?

Not to mention that &lt;em&gt;mandating&lt;/em&gt; that everyone purchase health insurance, thus creating a greater pool of customers for Uncle Sam HMO, is not my idea of &quot;creating choice.&quot;  But as usual, it&#039;s left-speak.  &quot;You&#039;ll have the choice to do exactly what we want you to do.&quot;</description>

		<description>blatantblue..

Having a birthday on the very same day that Obama is in Mexico, giving a speech???  Something does not add up here.
Seems fishy to me.   Must be reported.

Happy Birthday, anyway.</description>

		<description>Ma&#039;am, I won&#039;t use Obamacare either because I, too, have better options. That&#039;s WHY we don&#039;t WANT your freakin&#039; half-a$$ed, ill-thought out, insanely conceived, COMPLETELY irresponsible legislation. 

Just about EVERYONE has better options than freakin&#039; Obamacare ... hence the peeved town hall attendees and angry outbursts. SHEESH.

American liberals and ObamaBots musta been home sick the day they handed out logic chips to all human beings. Either that or they got the &quot;seconds and irregulars&quot; installed in place of the quality tested, smart feller approved versions.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;NO UNION MEMBERS will have to participate in Obamacare&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I think that no government employees will have to participate, I don&#039;t think it extends to all unions. Of course, we would know this for sure if the bill was clear, but I have read and re-read sections of it and still can&#039;t make any sense  of it. And I&#039;m used to reading and interpreting government documents (i.e., FDA laws, NYS DOH regs) for my job. But this bill is impossible. It is written in legalese, the back references within the text require that you constantly refer to other sections of the document or other laws (Social Security law, Tax codes, Immigration laws, etc.) so that you lose your train of thought while reading. When the FDA comes out with a whole new law such as this they usually hold meetings for industry members to help them interpret how the law applies to them or they distribute clarifications, as does NYS DOH. You can only assume that this law was written purposely to be confusing and those who try to explain it to us seem to tell us things that are not verifiable in what is written in the bill. While there are attorneys and a few docs in Congress who may understand it, I seriously doubt that any members of Congress or their staff can comprehend it even if they did read it. There could actually be some sensible reforms in there but who can tell? I&#039;ve read others&#039; interpretations of parts of the bill and tracked back to the bill in an attempt to verify but can rarely do so. They need to write a bill that the people can read and understand or they&#039;re just promoting fear and opposition.</description>
