Obama lobbies for health care,,,,,,,this comes from the man who promised that the lobbying practices in Washington would no longer be tolerated if he were elected,,,,,, MORE LIES. So who is he paying under the table to buy this scam? Mandatory health cars will turn into another cash cow for someone and in the end ,,,will not help the people,,,,as long as the cost factors of health care are extremely inflated as they are , NO PROGRAM will work. There are no rules or guidelines anyone in the industry follows,,,it is charge what you want according to if they have insurance or not. Medicines are way too expensive,,,,big pharma will tell you it is because of R&D,,,they spent billions testing....B.S.....,,,,,,If that were true,,,then WHY,,,,in the last year we have seen a large number of these so called miracle drugs recalled after they sold tens of billions of dollars worth of them to suddenly find out ,,,they had serious side effects and were dangerous? If they did spend billions,,,,who got paid that money?,,,,the FDA? Our government needs to crawl out of bed with the lobby dollar, get honest, represent the people FIRST,,,,OR....prepare for a second revolution.

You're one of those "Get the Government off the back of Big Business" folks I take it. Look I'd suppose you have your axe to grind and the BIG BUSINESS types have been telling us for THREE DECADES that a Public Plan would not work, private plans can do it so much better and so much cheaper they said. I say the time has come to let the AMERICAN PEOPLE decided which plan they like better. Put them out there and let the better plan win. LOL

"prepare for a second revolution"? I'd love you to try to say that in a forum that wasn't anonymous (which this truly isn't since IP addresses are logged as a matter of normal IT policy). That kind of language is called treason...
