I have read countless stories about families that had to sell their house to finance medical bills.Doug Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11097957625094213378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26177615.post-30539184003505465302009-08-12T21:19:18.845+07:002009-08-12T21:19:18.845+07:00Why are they shouting them down?

Do they want to stop those who can't afford insurance from getting treatment?<br /><br />I haven't followed it closely as I find the US healthcare system atrocious (I'm British), but surely any step to end the problems presented in Sicko has got to help.<br /><br />Hope you are keeping well,<br /><br />All the Best,<br /><br />Bill ZBillZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14961793704010499620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26177615.post-67861205284576882282009-08-09T01:57:47.854+07:002009-08-09T01:57:47.854+07:00It’s funny we hear Republicans say that they do no...It’s funny we hear Republicans say that they do not want “faceless bureaucrats” making medical decisions but they have no problem with “private sector” “faceless bureaucrats” daily declining medical coverage and financially ruining good hard working people. And who says that the “private sector” is always right, do we forget failures like Long-Term Capital, WorldCom, Global Crossing, Enron, Tyco, AIG and Lehman Brothers. Of course the federal government will destroy heathcare by getting involved, Oh but wait, Medicare and Medicaid and our military men and women and the Senate and Congress get the best heathcare in the world, and oh, that’s right, its run by our federal government. I can understand why some may think that the federal government will fail, if you look at the past eight years as a current history, with failures like the financial meltdown and Katrina but the facts is they can and if we support them they will succeed.<br /><br />How does shouting down to stop the conversation of the healthcare debate at town hall meetings, endears them to anyone. Especially when the organizations that are telling them where to go and what to do and say are Republicans political operatives, not real grassroots. How does shouting someone down or chasing them out like a lynch mob advanced the debate, it does not. So I think the American people will see through all of this and know, like the teabagger, the birthers, these lynch mobs types are just the same, people who have to resort to these tactics because they have no leadership to articulate what they real want. It’s easy to pickup a bus load of people who hate, and that’s all I been seeing, they hate and can’t debate. Too bad.Paulnoreply@blogger.com
