These are not REAL savings. This act is akin to the tobacco industry's buy out of lawsuits to stay in business.
The health industry knows it's profit margins are second only to the oil industries. These health industry profits borderline criminal. The health industries practices skate the very edges of consumer laws that protect the public from corporate fleecings.
This "offer", which is nothing but a token compared to the profits it can make if it stays in business as is. Like the auto industry, the health industry needs to be torn down and rebuilt.
How stupid do they think we are? I just bought a new dress that I don't need but I saved $20 because it was on sale!!! What???? Reducing price increases? I worked for a Medical device company for a few weeks - 85% markup. Do they care about reducing time to market, improving inventory turns, reducing costs? No and why should they? Our congressmen make sure they are rolling in the dough.
We need universal single payer health care for America. We need to get the insurance companies out of health care, they are just unfeeling big corporations who could care less about human beings. America is an absolute failure when it comes to health care.
I know where alot of this money go.... THose 400 lb
people in electric carts, cigarrette smokers, drug users
leaving the rest of us to get whats left. I live sensibly and
watch my weight ...... then there's those who have babies
without any consideration of that childs future YET there's
no laws probibiting huge families whom they cannot care for. And it appears only to get worse.
The current health system will continue to sink beucase
those who could ease the situation simply hide their
head in the sand. Remember even a sturdy life boat
can only save so many. Its not the sick I worry but rather
those whose to have their cared but fail to contriute.
The private health care insurers will do everything is their considerable power to deny Americans any form of universal health insurance. They make too much profit from the current system.
From wikipedia: "The Commonwealth Fund, in its annual survey, "Mirror, Mirror on the Wall", compares the performance of the health care systems in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada and the U.S. Its 2007 study found that, although the U.S. system is the most expensive, it consistently under-performs compared to the other countries. One difference between the U.S. and the other countries in the study is that the U.S. is the only country without universal health insurance coverage."
While the president's initiative is well-intentioned, the root problem will remain without some form of universal coverage..
Where are the savings going? Unbelievable. Quite stunning the way Obama talks about an "unlikely maybe" as if it were happening. Its getting to be a habit. A habit of bulls***.
None of my liberal friends can stand watching him anymore on tv. Is he really that much of a scammer? Absolutely stunning.
Single payer is the only solution not dripping with evil...
Yes, you can't trust unfeeling, profit-driven big corporations. They have screwed us for years, outsourced our jobs and started tragic quagmires for oil.

The fact is we're tired of being robbed! We don't want the robber to be nicer and rob less, we want the robber gone!
