Wisdom from an American Senior

Email This Post
There is very little I can say about the health care debate that this man doesn’t say in his video. Please send this to as many people as you can. This is a two part video, I suggest watching both pieces.
Video – Part Two

[..YouTube..] Funny it is in my copy, perhaps Obama is handing out two copies, one realy one and one to dupe supporters?
[..YouTube..] pwned
[..YouTube..] @gadgettr6That’s because your copy is COMPLETELY MADE UP BULLSHIT. It’s such a crap lie because it’s such an OBVIOUS CRAP LIE… Who’s getting duped here? You think REALITY is lying to you… You think REALITY is biased against you.PLEASE, PEOPLE. Do your own homework. Quit being cheerleaders for this nation’s destruction. Obama is trying to fucking help you AND YOU KNOW IT, you SICK FUCKS!1- Your most trusted search engine2- “All doctors will be paid equally, with no regard” site:.gov
[..YouTube..] If the current American healthcare system is so bad, why is it people from countries with socialized medicine all over the world come to the U.S. for treatment?
[..YouTube..] There it is. The name calling.
[..YouTube..] It has always been clear to the educated that filthy language was a cover for ignorance.
[..YouTube..] Our country was made better by the senior citizens that helped us grow in the past. Doesn’t any one respect their sacrifice and knowledge anymore? You can tell alot about a person by wether or not they take care of their elders or simply try to get rid of them!
[..YouTube..] the only people making decisions now in our country were gin & tonics and Crab cakes. they have not had to work Hard for much of anything. So how do we expext them to make decisions for us?
[..YouTube..] oh my godthe topic was healthcare and the hotheads are talking about ww2 and the japanese.where is the relevance?Your healthcare system will never change cause there the golf industry will go bust .Archie bunker still lives I see.STOP RUINING THE REST OF THE WORLDfYou never see how many people go outside the USA cause that’s bad press.Go on and get sick and pay through the nose with money you don’t have……………..just stop screwing the worldpleaseThanks you
[..YouTube..] And get Forest Gump’s grand daddy off you tube.America can’t change cause they don’t want to.there is a thing called social responsibility and humanitarian or is that a commie plot too.the rich whould not get social security. it should be means tested…..omg that sounds commieG
[..YouTube..] Please stay in Australia….and while your at it, please mind your own business.Let real Americans sort it out.PS…how’s the water?
[..YouTube..] You still give Cowboys fans a bad name. Go to bed, Gramps, you`re getting cranky staying up this late.
[..YouTube..] love these names like bravado. All show no go. Change can be a good thing. Depends on what it is. You mention 30 years. So allowing ILLEGALS to invade America by the millions, bring in diseases, and rape/muder/drug Americans a good change? And 3rd world folks to come here and get on the dole good change? Generational welfare good change? I know about innovation. Look at Genentech. I know what makes it disappear. Look at the LIB proposals to kill it. Maybe you are myopic and think change is OBAMA
[..YouTube..] bravado, you twist the constitution. The lawyers want to interpret “general welfare” to mean handouts! That’s NOT what the forefathers had in mind. Healthcare is NOT A RIGHT! You have a RIGHT to access it. But it is your RESPONSIBILITY to get it. You must also take care of YOUR own HEALTH. Be accountable! The words “You owe me”, “I am a victim”, “that’s not fair” and the like are part of the problem. Get a job. Work hard. And get your filthy, lazy hands out of my pocket. Or go to Russia.
[..YouTube..] If you want to see something hilarious, go here:/watch?v=zZxeSa2C8TM
[..YouTube..] Why are people thumbing me down when I give instruction on how to READ THE BILL ACTUAL BY YOURSELVES?It’s like you hate knowledge. It’s like you hate ACTUAL information and would prefer to masturbate yourselves to the sound of this old hick’s mispronounced insanity.You can’t hide your character, and you can’t bury the truth. This old guy is full of it and so are most of you email forwarders. Don’t you have brains enough to see that this is simply NOT in HR3200?
[..YouTube..] Yeah, those were things that Christ would say, right? I don`t think so, and apparently, you wouldn`t know.
[..YouTube..] READ THE BILL BY YOURSELF!There is a way to get the ACTUAL bill and a summary… Look here:1- Go to google2- Type this inHR3200 aahca site:.gov filetype:PDFWhat I did was searched Google for any document named HR3200 or aahca, from official sources (dot gov), and only of the filetype PDF.Use your Adobe reader software to search for specific pages and/or phrases he uses. You can see clearly, BY YOURSELVES, that he’s just reading a crazy email that was forwarded to him.
[..YouTube..] Sir I truly applaud your comments, unlike the off-topic root-heads below me. I fully understand your points of view and understand them as too my father is in your same situation. In the Army we called this a double-standard, however, it will be people like you and I that put a stop to this non-sense, remove the TRASH (all of them) from Washington, and put our our America back on it’s feet! God Bless you for the video.Hang your Glasden Flag High in front of the house: “Don’t Tread on Me”
[..YouTube..] Most importantly, READ THE BILL BY YOURSELF!There is a way to get the actual bill and a summary.1- Go to google2- Type this inHR3200 aahca site:.gov filetype:PDFWhat I did was searched Google for any document named HR3200 or aahca, from official sources (dot gov), and only of the filetype PDF.Use your Adobe reader software to search for specific pages and/or phrases he uses. You can see clearly, BY YOURSELVES, that he’s just reading a crazy email that was forwarded to him.
[..YouTube..] Ha! That was great! Amen to that about rballew30. He can collect his ACORN check tommorrow. He probably found that craigslist post and nibbled on an easy way to shake down Americans and get $500 per week to promote Obama care. Guess rballew 30 got the on-line version of the gig and is hitting up utube posts with is rant. Well, brybryan68, I wish you the best. Gotta keep the faith and take down this radical regime. 2010 we the people will rise again! Be well. Donna
[..YouTube..] You are dillusional! Time to take your meds dude. The patriots were do-ers not take-ers. This great country was built on do-ers not losers like you and rballew30 who like to CHANGE the history books and twist the TRUTH. Be minions for Obama…and be Obombies a.k.a Obamabots. Once your Kool-aid hangover is over, you will be praying to the porcelain god– “wTF!” What did we do? Meanwhile all of us sane straight folks are saying “WTF, how do we mop up the mess made by the imposter?
[..YouTube..] 1230burchett – It’s my understanding that sometimes one needs to use stronger language in order to get people’s attention.Foul language is borne not of ignorance, but of exasperation with you SICK FUCKS! Barack is trying to help those less fortunate and YOU KNOW IT! If you can’t let go of your hate long enough to remember the lessons Jesus taught, you don’t get to use Him (use Him) anymore. We won’t forget your hatred of your countrymen; red and yellow, black & white. We won’t forget…
[..YouTube..] 1- Get the insurance companies to quit raping people.2- No need for gov’t intrusion.It’s that simple. Who’s with me?
[..YouTube..] Pull your head out of your 90 year old ass and answer what I said. Do you think Christ would go along with the garbage you`re tossing around? Of course not. But then, you`ve never read the Bible either. Except the one Glenn Beck holds in his hand. (Takes a sip of Koolaid, um,um,good!)
[..YouTube..] Way to go Mr Crawford. You are right on the mark. Thank you for your effort. I hope and pray our government leaders will work for our good and the good of the country again.
[..YouTube..] You mean doers like all the banks that got bailed out?The patriots also helped each other out.They banded together for the common good.Seems to me that they would be in favor of helping each other out, in sickness and in health.Private health care has failed because it does not take care of all Americans,only the wealthy or connected, much like royalty in the class system, something the patriots scorned.You can spend a billion dollars per space shuttle launch but not help a fellow citizen?
[..YouTube..] It seems people against public health care are against government in general.That is call anarchy and they are called anarchists.
[..YouTube..] The bill is crap, people aren’t buying it, end of story. One thing they could do that would make if affordable for all is to change the law and let people shop for insurance nationwide, not just in your state. Why won’t they do that? Axelrod was asked that and the video is here on You Tube. Go watch it. He is flustered, skirts the issue, ignores the question. Ask yourself why? I can tell you the reason, they know it will work. They want you to have to depend on their shitty govt. run plan FUBO!!
[..YouTube..] Get lost OBOT
[..YouTube..] How about we get insurance companies to quit raping good people?Then there would be no need for Obamacare…It’s that simple. Who’s with me?
[..YouTube..] The bill is crap, people aren’t buying it, end of story. One thing they could do that would make if affordable for all is to change the law and let people shop for insurance nationwide, not just in your state. Why won’t they do that? Axelrod was asked that and the video is here on You Tube. Go watch it. He is flustered, ignores the question. Ask yourself why? I can tell you the reason, they know it will work. They want you to have to depend on their shitty govt. run plan FUBO
[..YouTube..] Wow, another loonie crawls out of the woodwork. What we really need is to get rid of the ins.cos. that take 20 cents of every dollar spent in premiums, and put it straight into their pockets. That was called the single -payer system, but, God forbid the ins.cos. were going to let that happen. The public option in this bill would have given them competition and driven the rates down, but, oh no. Ill-informed people get irate and so on, and so on. Besides, I don`t see YOUR bill out there. Whiner.
[..YouTube..] Again, it gets so quiet in here when you speak truth to these deluded bigots. (Crickets chirping…)
[..YouTube..] donnapd1 says, “fertile breading grounds” while berating “public school indoctrination.”What a hoot!Then she calls the good working people of America “elitists,” while saying “Go fuck yourself!” to people who are hurting. Sounds kind of elitist to me, you elitist! Some nerve!
[..YouTube..] Well, right completely on, my friend! She is one of the biggest slobs out there, and yet she comes on here and throws bigoted trash around. People like her are an insult to the word American.
[..YouTube..] All governments are not like yours. some believe it or not care about people and not big business.Most wasteful society award…………..clunkers awayBest to avoid all the hype and live a healthy life and then you do not have to worry about healthcare…………….stuff the markateers with their salt,sugar,fat adsG
[..YouTube..] When America coughs, the world gets cold. How would you like some other country to cause the downfall of your country and put people out of work. Real Americans sortit out? Mr Bush was a real American as was Nixon…….bad apples.The weather is rainy and we are waiting for warmth. Just got a few days of heavy rains. No Palm trees in Melbourne and no Kangaroos in the streets and if they did they are covered by healthcare LOLLong Island, World’s longest sandbar LOL traffic? What’s traffic
[..YouTube..] Wow, first you claim someone doesn’t know what their talking about because they haven’t read the bill, how do you know that, because you disagree with them? Oh and I live in the past. I definitely live in the here and now. Abortion was original set up for rape, incest, life of mother. In the here and now we can birth all but the head, kill the baby and call it legal! So don’t tell me someday someone could decide who is worthily to live or die.
[..YouTube..] READ THE BILL BY YOURSELF – HERE!There is a way to get the “actual” bill and a summary.1- Go to google2- Type this inHR3200 aahca site:.gov filetype:PDFWhat I did just now was searched Google for any document named HR3200 or aahca, from official sources (dot gov), and only of the filetype PDF.Use your Adobe reader software to search for specific pages and/or phrases he uses. You can see clearly, BY YOURSELVES, that he’s just reading a crazy email that was forwarded to him.
[..YouTube..] Uh, bcbullfrog, methinks it is you who are confused. There is no federal HB 2300. Do you maybe mean HR 3200? Please, don’t blame others for your lack of reading skills or those of your Senator. There are lots of us who have read the bill and who comprehend its contents. That’s why we know that Mr. Crawford is lying when he claims that he is reading from the bill. Why does he have to lie about it?
[..YouTube..] go to whitehouse. org the bills are there. They are confusing and leave the door open for Government to do what they want with your healthcare. The mandates are crazy. A new study from economist says the Government plan will create $820 billion in new taxes and 95% increase in premiums over the next 10 years.
[..YouTube..] That is what he claims but these bills wil cost the middle class the most.
[..YouTube..] What people don’t understand is the Government already sets the prices for 1/2 our healthcare sector directly and the other 1/2 indirectly. They control production and consumption by determining the number of Doc; what services medical professionals can offer and under what terms; where they can practice; who can open a hospital or purchase a new MRI; who can market a drug or medical device; and what kind of health insurance consumers may purchase. They do a lousy job of keeping down cost.
[..YouTube..] Now they want to take over more control. We have a private market, but private isn’t free market when Government controls the resources and how they are used. They have passed the laws, regulations & mandates that have reduced competition and benefited themselves and the Industry at consumers expense. The only way to cut cost is a true free market system where consumers actually drive prices. Experts say just allowing purchasing across State lines would give 17 million access to affordable care
[..YouTube..] How do I know that he wasn’t reading from the bill? Because he claimed to be reading from it and yet what he is saying isn’t in the bill. That is the truth. Period. As for abortion, you and others keep bringing up the issue of abortion and yet, again, the bills being written do not address this. I quote, “No federal dollars will be used to fund abortions, and federal conscience laws will remain in place.” What part of that do you not understand? (Full rebuttal at steamd(.)net)
[..YouTube..] No, I’m not twisting the Constitution. When you have an industry that excludes people and forces them to pay through the nose to get drugs and preventative care, that’s not exactly fair. What we’re talking about is basic fairness in the system which does not exist. It’s the gov’ts responsibility to ensure our “general welfare”. I’m not talking about handouts. I do work hard and I can pay for it…but I’m being excluded. So, what do I do? Grin and bear it? (Full rebuttal at steamd(.)net)
[..YouTube..] Oh my God, you`re an idiot. Pull your tiny head out of Glenn Beck`s ass and breathe already. Okay, that`s enough, put it back in. Good boy.
[..YouTube..] Why is he an idiot for telling the truth?
[..YouTube..] I’m ready to vote this man into office!!
[..YouTube..] quizzery, WHY DON’T YOU QUIT TRYING TO SPREAD MIS-INFORMATION??? QUIT TRYING TO PREVENT US FROM SEEING ACTUAL INFORMATION THAT WILL CHANGE PEOPLE’S MINDS?1- It’s NOT whitehouse. org – it’s whitehouse. gov2- Honest mistake, right? You’ve been there, right? WRONG! A search on whitehouse. gov does NOT bring any results for HR3200. See whitehouse. gov/search/?keywords=HR3200 for your reference.3- You mention a “new study.” WHAT NEW STUDY? New taxes? HUH? 95% increase? YOU LIE!
[..YouTube..] Read back a few lines to egl25ful. That`s who I was responding to.
[..YouTube..] 4- You say, “The only way to cut cost is a true free market system where consumers actually drive prices.” CONSUMERS DRIVE PRICES NOW! INSURERS RATION CARE NOW! BUREAUCRACY EXISTS NOW! INSURERS ARE THE MIDDLE MAN, ***BY DEFINITION*** STANDING IN BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR DOCTOR NOW!5- You say, “…They control production.” Is that NOW??? You’re saying that is the way it is NOW? That’s the very DEFINITION of SOCIALISM (where gov’t controls the means of production)!!! You are in la-la land!
[..YouTube..] Judging from your site, (no friends, no subscribers, no videos) I guess he could be your friend.
[..YouTube..] I expect most people on here agree that insurance companies need some reforms to protect the individual. Health costs need to come down, drug companies need reform. Address those concerns individually – not in a 1,000+ page piece of legislation that will destroy the good with the bad.
[..YouTube..] You are exactly right on these points. But remember, greed and corruption are universal – both sides are guilty of these “sins” – so beware of a 1,000+ page piece of legislation that only lawyers can decipher.
[..YouTube..] You can cut me down all you want, but this man speaks the truth!
[..YouTube..] Well,sure. Unfortunately, it`s all we have at the moment. Plus, you couldn`t tackle them one by one, the lobbyists would make sure of that.
[..YouTube..] The most recent Rasmussen poll regarding Obama’s health care plan:41% support, 56% oppose.I am guessing that the liberals will say that the 56% are misguided and believing the lies.And everyone is out of step except Johnny!
[..YouTube..] Yep.
[..YouTube..] God Bless you Sir and your family. NO WHITE FLAGS!!!
[..YouTube..] That`s true, all true. Nice to have a civil debate with an intelligent person
[..YouTube..] I couldn’t agree more. I’m not quite a Senior yet but I’m permanently disabled and have been on SSDI since 1997. My husband has been unemployed for almost 2 years and is without any healthcare. But, I do not want the Federal government to make decision for me or to entitle insurance to every American then not have access because there are not enough doctors or technicians to take care of us. Many will die waiting. I am horrified at the thought of this.
[..YouTube..] That’s interesting… I show the same thing on Rasmussen. Here’s the thing, though. Among seniors, this is a new low, and one must consider the source. Rasmussun is always favorable to the Republican position. Gallup and 538 (Nate Silver) are not showing similar data. I could ask the more curious among you email forwarders to check the latest Gallup poll, which provides a more comprehensive breakdown of age demography. Ultimately, polls mean squat. Look on Rasmussun for John McCain’s chances.
[..YouTube..] my mistake on congress not white house. org look under legislation and search for the bill by HR 3200 plus all the others are there to. The study come from cato. org
[..YouTube..] Ok I’ll give you one example of where Government regulations cut free market competition. Allowing purchasing across State line would give 17 million access to affordable care and also cut cost to others. Instead of the cartel of the handfull in your State w/ little competition. Consumers would be able to shop hundreds of companies across the U.S. there by driving prices down to compete for your business. Putting health care dollars into hand of consumers instead of 3rd parties.
[..YouTube..] Liberals are all the same. Can’t handle facts when presented to them. I’m yet to see them face common sense questions with common sense answers. Just like playing God, they want to control everything like health care. Take natural law and make it their law. Just sick of it all. I frankly don’t care anymore and I’m glad the “Silent majority” is finally speaking up. Those with the hidden agendas have had the microphone since the 60’s but now they’re getting the same right back at them.
[..YouTube..] Regardless of political party control, “our country” has become “the country”. Our government is actually telling us what we HAVE to do whether we like it or not, changing our daily social activities. Whether you or they know it, this act, as well as many others adopted in the past, are communistiic in nature. Focus people focus!
[..YouTube..] Don’t EVER give up! Not caring is the worst thing any citizen can do.
[..YouTube..] It appears that laughatrepublicans missed the point that the seniors have paid into this system for 30 years and the govt mismanagement of this system has created the current predicament. Others should realize that when the govt is planning to charge everyone health insurance premiums that will also be mismanaged. Nothing will change except for the fact that no one will be happy with the new system. Thanks to the fine gentleman who put out this video.
[..YouTube..] While polls are not absolute they do act as barometers.I believe most everyone agrees, Democrat, Republicans and Independents, that health care reform is needed.If we could remove the emotional and political rhetoric from the left and right and take an intellectual approach to solving the health care problems success would be more attainable.We should not try to eat the whole elephant (no reference to Republicans here).We need to eat one piece at a time.
[..YouTube..] Get over yourself, Dale. Talk about a hidden agenda… All we want is for more Americans to live longer, healthier lives, but the way you guys tell it (literally, scroll up), you make it sound like we’re trying to put people in OVENS!Barack is trying to help the helpless, and you’re so partisan, you’re all like, “Get a job, you Communist welfare queen!” It’s nothing like that. I work damn hard. I love my parents. I would NEVER let anything happen to them. Dale, we’re fighting FOR you.
[..YouTube..] cavecanem,I think you’re missing the point that insurance companies are completely raping good people out of their life savings. They have 20-30 cents out of every dollar they take in stacked against you. They are preying on the old and weak. Insurance companies need to stop letting people die for dollars.All we want is a zero sum game. For every $1we pay in, I want $1’s worth of service. No more, no less. Insurance companies are only giving back 60-80 cents of services for my $.
[..YouTube..] I am glad someone finally pointed out that everyone in this country already gets healtcare regardless of whether or not they pay. Why not give healthcare providers tax credits to treat people for free?
[..YouTube..] You speak the truth and I hope this video will be seen by those in control of our health care and lives as seniors. We are very worried about what is happening to us!
[..YouTube..] Very good speach hope the right people get to view this one thanks for sharing with us.
[..YouTube..] Hey quizzery,Stop giving documented, known, STATED right wing think tanks for official House bills. Another user gave a good, perfect recipe for getting the REAL House Bill HR3200. I’ll give it again…1- Go to google2- Type this inHR3200 aahca site:.gov filetype:PDFThat’s a Google “whack” to the exact document under debate (not for long though; get it while it’s hot).It’s like you don’t WANT honest debate. It’s like you WANT to purposely fuzz the message.What about the ?’s asked?
[..YouTube..] Hey quizzery,You said, “Instead of the cartel of the handfull in your State w/ little competition. Consumers would be able to shop hundreds of companies across the U.S. there by driving prices down to compete for your business.”Here’s how that would work out:The fish bowl would only be bigger. They would continue to screw us, and their profit model would be completely binding.We work hard. I work hard. I love my parents. This is not capitalism. It’s a stickup. “Your money or your life.”
[..YouTube..] bombenhagel: reform is needed and the govt can do much to regulate insurance companies whose policies have moved this to the front burner. Govt takeover of the health care system is just wrong. The govt does not have the authority to make this a mandatory program. A Govt mandate of this nature will stink at the highest level. We cannot allow this to happen. Look at the penalties for not buying into the govt insurance programs. There are even criminal penalties. Does that give you pause?
[..YouTube..] therealBombenhagel,You’re absolutely right. It’s not capitalism. True capitalism relies on hones, REAL competition. It’s like when the Big 3 cereal companies got in trouble some years back for fixing prices artificially high. That’s exactly what insurers would do; they’d all fix their prices nationwide. The profit model would be inescapable.Capitalism = competition for business. Rival companies are enemies, fighting for your business & keeping prices low.Competition makes a better product.
[..YouTube..] cavecanem,You’re still using loaded words like “gov’t takeover.”It’s NOT a gov’t takeover at all. You should check out “The Language of Healthcare” on Google. It’s a GOP manual for stoppping all reform. The fact you are using their buzzphrase gives me pause.It’s simple. Competition creates a better product. Since we can’t count on these vultures (insurers) to compete honestly, it’s like the gov’t is opening up shop. If it’s better, you buy it. If it’s a clunker, you buy something else…
[..YouTube..] I believe it’s spelled “delusional” and, no, I’m not delusional nor am I one of Obama’s minions, Obombie, Obamabot, or whatever you wanna call it. I may have voted for him but I don’t call myself a huge supporter. Hell, I don’t even prescribe to a specific party. More on your comment in another comment. (Full rebuttal at steamd(.)net)
[..YouTube..] You lie!It is Government takeover and D’Rats, including Obama, are on “tape” saying it over and over again, in the past. Now that the American people have said NO WAY on Obamacare, then you try to change the message.YOU LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
[..YouTube..] Ask yourself the following question: If you found out that you will die tomorrow unless you take a specific drug everyday for the rest of your life, how much would you be willing to pay for that drug? $1 a pill? $10 a pill? How about $500 a pill? At what point do we realize that pharmaceutical companies are extorting customers? That is the dilemma we face right now with health care. Same applies to health insurance companies. That is the truth. (Full rebuttal at steamd(.)net)
[..YouTube..] Amen Camelguy.We certainly need to make some changes but we don’t have to dismantle the whole system to do so. Obama is coming across as someone who believes the government should be an end-all for the American people. The government should protect us to that we can achieve all we can. Medicaid is a mess (corruption, mismanagement, etc.) Medicare Advantage makes Medicare work & that is the very aspect of it he wants to cut. Please people, constructive comments!
[..YouTube..] You are not fighting for me you ignorant foolBarack is not trying to help anyone..he just wants control.. control..of idiots like you
[..YouTube..] This guy doesn’t mention that almost all Medicare fraud is committed by the PRIVATE sector — by pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies and individuals. He makes it sound like it’s all due to government mismanagement. This entire video distorts the truth beyond recognition.
[..YouTube..] bodacious: that is the problem. The govt only puts less than 1% of their admin budget to fraud. If you are running the program you are in charge of the fraud and you have all the control. The fraud is a huge part of what is paid out. This fine gentleman is stating the facts as he sees them. He paid in. I paid in. We don’t want this. We want the fraud to stop. We want reform of trial lawyers and drug companies. We want insurance companies to stop scewing people. We don’t want this.
[..YouTube..] 5561drum. Absolutely! But it is very hard to convince brain washed folks to believe otherwise.
[..YouTube..] bravado214. What do you do for a living? I bet you are not in R&D or pharma industry. Sadly, you have no clue what pharma spends to create innovative therapies. I do. Private money is used. Such folks take BIG risks. Millions can be lost in Phase II or Phase III trials. Let’s take antibiotics, only 1 in 5,000 compounds will ever see the market. You care not of the investors losses. Pharma is the only industry that loses its patent protection in <20 years with generics. They’re NOT the same.
[..YouTube..] God Bless You wildflowerssandi and this Great man & family’s
[..YouTube..] God Bless you too* And God Bless America! I sure do hope we don’t go to war in Iran but it is sounding like we might?
[..YouTube..] bravado214. You voted for a Marxist, so much for your research capabilities. You can’t fix heathcare ills until the root cause are addressed. The DEMS and BO lost all credibility when they took TORT reform off the table and cutting off ALL AID TO ILLEGAL CRIMINALS! Now there’s a few billion saved. You hate pharma but the same pharma has helped saved diabetic children, extended lives, etc. Where is the gratitude? But you think it’s okay to pay $100 to see a football game. That’s not extortion?
[..YouTube..] Sorry this guy does not have the facts. Don’t think he could understand it if he saw it.
[..YouTube..] Thanks for taking the time. You’re right on. If this bill is soooo right for America then why do our congress men and women not include themselves in the same bill or do they consider themselves a bit above the people that put them there and pay their salaries.
[..YouTube..] And we will take your assessment of this guys (NOT!)
[..YouTube..] Is there not governmental oversight programs for insurance and pharmaceutical companies? Yes there are, so the government IS to be held responsible.
[..YouTube..] Sorry I meant that for SANDMAN not Mr. Crawford
[..YouTube..] I am happy I live in Canada. In spite of all the hype in the US about our health care up here it is pretty good – and I don’t have to worry about losing my house if I have a health problem. I take my kids to the doctor whenever I want. I have always enjoyed excellent care here, as have my elderly family members.
[..YouTube..] Bravo sir…Its nice to see our seniors speaking up. God Bless YOU and your wife.
[..YouTube..] Conservatism catastrophically failed us. Now these losers want us to continue to be robbed by their buddies in the healthcare industry. Give me Liberty AND give me death. There is no value on a human life, so there is no ceiling to what the free market can charge to repair you. This money eating machine is the height of immorality. Hostage our family’s health… And we have to listen to every 20 year-old Fox lemming spew insults here on Youtube.Believe me, there will be nothing left for you.
[..YouTube..] Yavor54. Obama is done. The Democraps will lose BIG in 2010 and ObamaSCARE will fail. NO PUBLIC OPTION, so BO can’t control you through the tax code. Pity the fool who loves the Marxist. BO sends his girls to PRIVATE school. If gov’t run public school’s so GREAT, why aren’t they there? If OBAMA-SCARE is so great why won’t the Democraps use it? Do some base-line thinking. BO can give 2 craps about you and your family-you’ve been taken but good. Teddy K is the poster child for term limits!
[..YouTube..] Just pray you don’t get cancer. Do some research on the statistics. A woman from the UK chose to stay in America for her treatment–even though her care in the UK would have been “free”–but there is no such thing as free, you are taxed to death for inferior care.
[..YouTube..] Fox just reported that Obama’s health care plan will fine violators $25,000 and/or 1 year in jail — is this not a form of debtor’s prison which is unconstitutional in the once-great United States of America?Everyone should call Congress and Obama and ask — if the Health Care Reform Plan/Bill is so GREAT, why does it EXEMPT Obama and his family and Congress and their families (page 114, line 22)?
[..YouTube..] I definitely don’t trust insurance companies. I helped one build their health care computer system and the whole purpose is multiple layers with a purpose not to approve or pay for care. It’s all based on profit for the insurance company even if your company is picking up the direct costsof the HC themselves and it will get bad/worse quickly.
[..YouTube..] Wyoman100, you are wrong again, I am on Medicare. Blancheben
[..YouTube..] I would love to see Obama strapped to a camel and sent across the Afgan desert by him self..
[..YouTube..] Isawanangel1XBirds of a feather! Obama’s gathering his flock to prepare for the New World Order (NWO) – which Christians refer to as the One World Government. Henry Kissinger (a Bildeberg-er) suggested not long ago that Obama could be the leader of the NWO. According to the Bible, the leader of the One World Government will turn out to be the AntiChrist.Note: The way Nazism gained a foothold in Germany was through the healthcare system. Obama was weaned on Nazi/Communist teachings!
[..YouTube..] This is a wonderful conservative site. Its about a man who wanted to warn others about what he feels is a harmful healthcare bill. Our Founding Fathers would have liked this man – as many of us do. God bless you John.To rballew30, laughatrepublicans, AtlasShruggery, and the rest of you ill-mannered thugs who think this is your own private bully pulpit for spouting dung and name calling, you dont deserve the time of day. Find a site where you are wanted!
[..YouTube..] I applaud this man for having the guts to say what all of us should, need and must say to everyone and , to pass on and make all seniors realize just what all the Congress and Obama are wanting to pass. Why is it they all have their own medical policy plus they do not pay into Social Security. When is it all going to stop. We are becoming a Communistic Country.
[..YouTube..] Absolutely riveting. I agree completely and am getting off my complacent rear end to work against Obama’s healthcare bill RIGHT NOW!
[..YouTube..] I only wish I could thank you and your wife for bringing the truth, in all its ugly trappings, to us. I will do my part to get the word out to as many as possible. God bless you and GOD BLESS AMERICA.
[..YouTube..] The ORIGINAL SINS were Social Security and Medicare. Seniors willingly fed at those troughs of government entitlements which are giant Ponzi schemes. Seniors paid in, but they end up taking so much more out and now these programs are ready to collapse. Gee, who would have seen that coming? Once you trust gov’t to care for your personal needs in terms of income or health, you already have allowed the camel’s nose under the tent.
[..YouTube..] Excellent, excellent and well said. I just hope they read or view it. Some legislative aide who is 23 or 24 will read it i’m afraid.
[..YouTube..] A person paying S.S. taxes since age 18 would have more than $1,000,000. Do you know anyone who has received that from social security? People didn’t willingly pay into it. They were, as you are, forced to pay into it. Politicians promised all funds would be kept in a trust fund. They lied, as usual, and the whole system is bankrupt–just as they will bankrupt the health care system if they are allowed to do so and then we will have to wait, like they do in Canada–4 to 6 months for an M.R.I.
[..YouTube..] This is very well spoken, its a shame the same generation who saved the world once before is having to help fight for us once again… wake up you 20 and 30 somethings! your gonna have to pay for it as well as your kids, grand kids etc…Remember to same govt you want to take care of your health care is in charge of the post office and social security too. and we all see the shape they are in now.
[..YouTube..] Anyone who was forced to pay into the system since age 18 would have over $1,000,000, if invested in a savings account. That is not exactly being “fed at the troughs” since no one I know has received that kind of return on their money. Politicians lied and said they would keep funds collected in a trust fund. They bankrupted the fund and will do the same thing with our health care. Then we can wait 4-6 Mo., as in Canada, for an M.R. I.
[..YouTube..] Obama will send this country to hell.
[..YouTube..] The U.S. Post Office ran at a surplus for several years under Clinton. I get EXCELLENT, timely care from the Veterans Administration.
[..YouTube..] Sorry, Bozo, I don’t think the Founding Fathers would have wanted a liar like this Crawford schill among them. Read the text of HR3200. Go to the exact pages he mentions. None of the bullshit he says is on those pages or even in the bill. In 1017 pages, the word “rationing” NEVER appears. Read it yourself. Go post your blind sheep-like crap on Beck or Hannity’s sites.
[..YouTube..] Thank you for warning us. Let us pray America will hear the warning. You spoke the truth.
[..YouTube..] Thank you so much for the truth. I hope America can hear. May God help us.
[..YouTube..] You don’t want your fellow citizens to have goverment subsidized health care, but it’s okay for you to accept government handouts through SSDI? You should be horrified at the thought of your own selfishness. I am.
[..YouTube..] Better yet, pray America reads the friggin bill. He’s not. He’s reading from a rightwing email that’s going around. None of the things he’s saying are true. Google HR3200 youself and go to the pages he mentions. They are entirely different.
[..YouTube..] Thank you for thinking of me, you dried up pig-cunt. But you forget…if the day ever comes that Obama’s got ovens set up, I’ll be the guy kicking your stupid ass into them!
[..YouTube..] hey timaloha, stupid! SS was paid into his entire working life, its his money not governments money you idiot.Its a forced savings account that all Americans pay if they have a pay check. I would go to bet he will have paid in more through out his life than he will EVER see put in his pocket. Take another sip of your kool-aid idiot. Why dont you just listen and learn something.
[..YouTube..] Why do people get so aggressive that don’t want to look at the facts of how Obama and the corrupt government is taking all our freedoms away..you stupid people wake up ..he is a dictator in the making..he has some of media silenced of the truth and now he is working on the rest…that is dictatorship.. government decides what they want you to know…
[..YouTube..] timhola, you are the exact kind of guy I would love to meet face to face! But, I’m guessing you are no more than a fat slob in your underwear sitting in your grandmas basement. You are a pig-cunt you coward!
[..YouTube..] Bullshit, moron, it’s TAXPAYER MONEY ADMINISTERED BY THE GOVERNMENT. What, you think they pay you exactly what you paid in. No, dunce, some people get disabled early and collect all their lives. Some never collect at all. Either way, it’s a govt run wealth-redistribution (socialist) program exactly like what you rightwing dipshits are screaming about. I know, I know, it’s okay if YOU suck off the govt teat as long as nobody else gets any relief. God forbid you assholes help a fellow citizen.
[..YouTube..] Well pussy-boy wrong again. I’m a three-times wounded disabled combat vet with a Bronze Star for valor. 13 years as an infantry officer with the 7th SFG. West Point grad. And even though I lost my left hand in combat, I could still kick your chickenshit ass all around the block while making your mother hold my jacket. Bitch.
[..YouTube..] timaloha you represent the vile disgusting nature of the LIB mentality. Folks who sink lower the sludge at the bottom of the barrel. I love it when LIBS prove me right over and over again. Pathetic, self-hating, Anti-American slime. You have no clue what you are talking about. Your gutter talk suggests you have not earned a GED. Obviously, if you can afford a computer and all your other gizmos, you can afford HEALTHCARE. Looks like you need a good behavioral health carve out, too! BO Joker!
[..YouTube..] You should be proud your military service, timaloha. And we should be proud of you.You fought to defend individuals rights and freedom. This bill (yes, I’ve read everything I can get my hands on) smacks that freedom in the face. I don’t expect to change your mind. Neither will you change mine. But just a word of advice to everyone on this board…people who resort to swearing and name-calling don’t project themselves as very intelligent.
[..YouTube..] PREACH ON BROTHER MAN!!
[..YouTube..] donnapd1: Good Job! It is good to see someone else that believes in Personal Accountability”. When I first saw this vid, there was good/normal posting, now it’s like your typical BS fest for the inept. Half of these doorknobs spend hours
[..YouTube..] Thanks cowboysfan
Stay the course. We have a lot of work to do and prepare for 2010. Getting involved locally and plan on helping to get true leaders in the White House..and get rid of the imposter and his Chicago thugs, Czars, and the rest of the “progressive” storm troopers that have done enough damage to our great country. Be well!! Donna
[..YouTube..] This man doesn’t get it! True, non-totalitarian “socialism” works – as in Canada (healthcare), in Europe and other countries! Correction: the law that allows anyone to go to a hospital and get care without pay does the minimal….and sometimes such persons do not get care because of the influx of others with care but for which there is not enough staff. How do you explain Kaiser Permanente dumping homeless “patients” on the streets of L.A.? Turning away others…. cont’d…
[..YouTube..] This man can not seriously think what he is saying is the truth. He has had to be paid by the insurance companies to do this video. However, I do think there are, unfortunately, people out there that are very ignorant and believe the propaganda presented by insurance companies so the insurance companies can continue discriminating and making huge profits. Buying insurance today is like playing Russian roulette
[..YouTube..] He doesn’t get it – the truth, the clarity: Medicaid of course will be cut back because Healthcare Reform will cover rich and poor allike! (obvious)!Praytell, what is wrong with all doctors getting the same pay regardless of specialty. Now, if some doctors have more EXPERIENCE than others, I believe they should be paid for their years, and may indeed be (raises over the years). The man in the video just doesn’t see the broad picture…& has read parts of the bill OUT OF CONTEXT!
[..YouTube..] If he “trusts for profit insurance companies” so much, maybe he should drop his Medicare,since he opposes socialist medicine, and join it. They would drop him so fast it would make Dakota’s head spin!
[..YouTube..] He’s not outgrown the “Red Scare” era – most of which was bogus…and, it surely seems as though he is parroting the health insurance companies! He’s misrepresenting too… read a former comment: v35b (1 week ago)I went to Google to look at the real bill… It seems Mr Crawford has made up all this stuff, as none of his page numbers reference to his quotes and neither words “rationed” or “rationing” is found in the over 1000 pages of the bill. …a fraud.
[..YouTube..] READ IT!1 – Google2 – HR3200 aahca site:.gov filetype:PDFCopy and paste line 2 into Google. This man seems nice, but he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.I wish all the people shrieking to “READ THE BILL!” actually did it.JUST DO IT – YOU’LL SEE FOR YOURSELVES THERE’S NOTHING TO BE SCARED OF.
[..YouTube..] This man has never had to fight a insurance co for services. Government doesn’t always get things right & yes there is a lot to be improved but insurance companies don’t have a stellar record either. Has everyone forgotten the past problems with HMO’s? Or when insurance cos. were kicking new moms out of hospital after 24 hrs? It was our government who had to step in. Business only cares about earning a buck, if they cared about giving us good coverage they would have found a way to do it already
[..YouTube..] It may have cost you only $25 to have a baby while in the service last year but what about AFTER this passes? Suppose something is wrong with the baby or spouse. Would this new bill take care of a sickly child or mother who goes into toxic shock or worse? If your 65 year old parent/spouse needs extreme/costly) treatment do you think this would cost “just” $25 or would it be too expensive for the Bills panel to approve?
[..YouTube..] Before jumping on board anything, GET ALL THE FACTS, .not just the ones that take of your todays, but also your tomorrows! GET ALL THE FACTS. READ THE ENTIRE BILL AND QUESTION ANYTHING/EVERYTHING. Then, and only then, make your decision.
[..YouTube..] You MUST be a well-informed citizen in order to protect your rights. Check with Candians or Brits who have similar health care systems. You cannot base your opinion only on what’s good for you today. We’re all in this together and have to look out for each other now and in the future. That’s what America is all about.
[..YouTube..] would rather buy cars, 4-wheelers, boats, hunting leases than buy insurance. I am not responsible for feeding your illegitimate children. You birthed them you pay for them just like I did and my mom before me. You want a check… work for it dont expect the goverment to take care of you
[..YouTube..] dont know what happened to the first ;part of my message but to keep it short and sweet we are giving away our country and without intervention at the voting booth we will slide into socialism without a fight… This texas gentleman is a wise man and we should listen to what he is saying and get off our lazy behinds and tell our “representatives” that they work for us and to listen to us. I do not want to pay for an individual who would..cont’ below
Спасибо за статью!
[..YouTube..] The best reason to oppose government run health care is the government’s record when it does run things. Social security was a good idea. Then congress decided to steal it’s surpluses to cover irresponsible spending. Now they say S, S, is going broke. It actually holds government IOUs that pay almost no interest. They just don’t want to have to pay up. Medicare is a corrupt joke. I am on it and promise you it pays closer to 1/3 than 80% and fraud is rampant. And look at the veterans system.
[..YouTube..] News Flash…..Health care programs are NOT working in the U.K., Canada, France, etc. Especially France. Bottom line….it’s much too expensive and will eventually bankrupt France if changes are not made and made soon. Do a search and read the article in the Wall Street Journal (written about three weeks ago).The same thing will happen in the USA….oh well, Comrade, we are moving away from evil capitalism and well on our way to socialism/marxism and eventual bankruptcy anyway.
[..YouTube..] I have never liked being TOLD what I can or cannot do. If what I CHOOSE is wrong for me then I want the option of trying something else. Government removes that option and hands it over to some political bean counter trying to save His or Her job so that He or She does not loose their benefit package.
[..YouTube..] “If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him?” ( John 3 : 17 )
[..YouTube..] People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. ( Timothy 6 : 9-11 )
[..YouTube..] This is unethical! And it’s a pack of lies too. Do you people seriously think for one minute that the insurance/drug companies want Americans to have health care? And, listen buddy, if you don’t like the way government is run, then LEAVE. You are not the only one who has contributed to these programs. Death counserling, is this the best you can do. It is these people at these meetings who are calling names. Put away your phoney flag, it doesn’t work.
[..YouTube..] Julieannayoga is a complete idiot. Has not read the bill, knows nothing about health care and is probably uneducated. Maybe high school if she is lucky and flipping burgers at McDonald’s.Government run health care, manufacturing, or any sector of the economy is a joke. These people, can’t run the post office, let alone the economy. If Canada is so great please move there with your entire crowd julieannayoga because you deserve anything you get there in the way of health care.
[..YouTube..] timaloha: the government is not capable of running a program this huge. The Federal Bureaucracy to make this happen will be so huge it will bankrupt this country. The congress can reform some basic items like tort reform and pre-existing conditions but to strangle the entire population with this is insane. We can make some positive changes without bankrupting the country.
[..YouTube..] cavecanem4,You getting it all wrong. This is about value for our money. That’s all it’s about. If insurance companies would stop raping people, I would be happy. Clearly they won’t, so there is no real competition in the marketplace. If the government enters the marketplace as a competitor, they are proposing a zero-sum game. That means $1 worth of service for $1 paid; not $0.60-0.80 for $1 paid like private insurers. This is a no-brainer. Competition makes a better product. We buy for value.
[..YouTube..] What the government is proposing is a zero-sum insurance program. $1 coverage for every $1 paid. Insurance the way it is now only gives back about $0.60-0.80 in service for every dollar you pay in. This should be a no-brainer.If it’s a better product and provides greater value, you buy it.If the product sucks and provides poor value for your dollar, you buy somewhere else.That’s it! That’s ALL. It’s not Communist. IT’S AMERICAN. It’s your choice. OPTION = CHOICE. It’s an OPTION!!!
[..YouTube..] You’re joking, right? Seniors need it more than anyone else, because they’re weaker. If you’re young and strong, H1N1 just makes you sick.Did you really come HERE to get an answer to your question, or did you only blast it here to further fuzz the message and introduce even more misinformation to be parroted back next week by some rumormonger saying that’s what HE heard (on Youtube, from YOU)?Where, pray tell, did you HEAR that? Consider the source.I heard Glenn Beck raped a girl in 1990.
[..YouTube..] Yea you can thank the Peanut man (Jimmy Carter) for breaking into our Social security.The Govenment only knows how to rob us.”WHITE HOUSE ROBBERS”I don’t trust them at all, becides what there doing is Unconstitutional, forcing health care & making it mandatory.Sorry it’s not in the constitution.
[..YouTube..] Laugh, you are pathetic. Quoting Bible verses to support a healthcare bill?!? How many of the taxpayers out there that would be footing the tab for this new program would be considered “wealthy” or “having possessions” as Timothy put it? And then, what is pity? Is pity giving a free life to the poor? Does it stop at healthcare? Where does it end!?!? The government can’t do much worse when it comes to managing money, why should we entrust millions more to them?
[..YouTube..] Have you EVER known our government to do anything at ZERO-SUM? There’s your answer…..and it case you forget the government NEVER spends less than they TAX in ergo the projected 3 TRILLION DEFICIT!!
[..YouTube..] According to our Doctor this is true. He said he was informed by the Government that those over 65 will not receive the vaccine.
[..YouTube..] I love it when people tell us how great the Canadian scam is. If it is so great why did the woman from Calgary have to come to Billings, Montana (the health care center of the US! HA!) to have her 5 babies? Why is Seattle overrun with Canadians seaking health care?
[..YouTube..] Billings, Montana?/watch?v=7Hpn283wiQ8
[..YouTube..] informed by the Government?GET THE FUCK OUT, YOU LIAR!
[..YouTube..] Cowboyinthewest joined youtube, like, right now!/user/Cowboyinthewest
[..YouTube..] Rep, you are missing his point. That rationing plan may or may not be part of a final plan. The point is it could be with government control. Remember all political power is transient. We do not know who will be in power 20 years from now. As to your final remark, that kind of hateful bull discredits you completely.
[..YouTube..] PER MEDBLOG: Those who the federal panel say should be first in line for the H1N1 shot:Pregnant womenHousehold contacts and caregivers for children under 6 monthsHealth care workers and emergency medical respondersChildren and young adults from 6 months to 24 years oldPeople ages 25 to 64 with underlying medical conditions, such as asthma and diabetesIt’s suggested by fed panel that healthy adults 25 to 64 years old comprise the second wave of priority with seniors last.
[..YouTube..] “Religion is the last resort of the scoundrel” The fallacy of his argument is it equates an armed robber with the salvation army. Charitable giving is not the same as being taxed.
[..YouTube..] I think the quote is “Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.”That’s why you guys hide behind patriotism as an excuse to treat your fellow countrymen like shit .It’s not my problem that you’ll have to stand before the Lord and explain why you treated your fellow man so shitty. That’s YOUR problem. Remember me. Remember this day.
[..YouTube..] This man has taken the time to know of what he speaks! He is thoughtful and well spoken. I agree with him completely!
[..YouTube..] Given that our Representatives are owned by the Fortune 500 and Big Finance, including the M-I complex, I have my doubts on a just solution.INSURANCE gets btw you and your doctor on most private and personal issues.Michael Moore on Colbert is sounds like a Left Tea Bagger, talking about OUR REPRESENTATIVES there to SERVE us, instead of multi-national capitalists. There IS common ground, minus the disinfo and insanity.
[..YouTube..] I’m a web developers so, no, I’m not in R&D or the pharma industry. However, I do know that based on the earning pharma companies report they get an insane amount of profits above and beyond what they invest in new drug research. Some companies have even used shortcuts to get certain drugs out on the market faster which is dangerous to say the least. How pharma companies do business now is much different than how they did it 20 years ago. Less regulation now. (Full rebuttal at steamd(.)net)
[..YouTube..] Soc Security was used to balance budget for Vietnam War, then it was raided for Star Wars.Not every Senior is called a Nazi, only the Nazis.Death counseling is NOT in lieu. INSURANCE currently blocks such care. 21% of claims REJECTED in Calif by top 6 insurers, causing sickness and death.The Christian Coalition STRONGLY supported the Taliban in the 80s, called anti-Taliban “TRAITORS”. Reagan’s Freedom Fighters, got billions of dollars.
[..YouTube..] I guess what I’m saying is that while you think you know all there is to know about the pharma companies, your view doesn’t represent the reality that customers have to deal with when it comes to drug costs. While millions can be lost during drug trials, *billions* are made off the drugs that go on the market. I remember a time when doctors were the ones who recommended drugs, not hundreds of commercials on TV. What happened? Greed happened and it’s ruining the industry.
[..YouTube..] bombenhagel and laughatrepublicans: you are assuming this is about healthcare and that bill HR 3200 will end up the law. WRONG!!! You both have to be very young and naive. As a sidelight Obama has made many promises he has already broken and there is more to come. Thus I contiune to email my representative in Congress. The only people who like this see govt as the answer. Many people see govt as the problem.
[..YouTube..] It has been said both ways. Thank you for making my point about the religion version.
[..YouTube..] INSURANCE cos ration care today, based on cost and what they think they can get away with, what the “adjustors” can find to kick you out or cut off services.Some proposed rules on rationing in the bill SEEMS to be a decision to standardize InsurCo rationing to a formula, no longer arbitrary cuts. That proposal includes the point that RICH people will ALWAYS have the chance to buy Cadillac coverage or pay out-of-pocket, as now. The improvement is for NON-rich (hopefully).
[..YouTube..] who is this stupid old man?i say that because he surely does SOUND stupid.
[..YouTube..] This guy has no credibility…I’d rather listen to his dog
[..YouTube..] Marxist? Far from it. May have voted for him but, again, that doesn’t automatically make me a blind follower. The root cause of healthcare probs isn’t illegal immigrants. That may be part of the problem but it isn’t the root. Tort reform is another area that needs to be addressed, I agree. I’m not against the pharma industry making a profit. I’m against them driving costs up in artificial ways just to make their stock value go up. Ends up costing the consumer more money.
[..YouTube..] more of this stupid old man.
[..YouTube..] What part of the words “PUBLIC OPTION” don’t you get?
[..YouTube..] Oh, and I’m not that much into football. Love a good game once in a while. I live in Dallas and, let me tell you, I do know extortion when I see it. Won’t see me paying over $100 to go to a Cowboys game in the new stadium, no sir! Nor will I pay over $300 a month that I have to take everyday. Is that not extortion as well? At what point do we call it extortion? (Full rebuttal at steamd(.)net)
[..YouTube..] Support a robust Public Option that can aggressively compete with the insurance companies. Call today.
[..YouTube..] Brain Dead
[..YouTube..] Web developers make insane money. So I think you should be capped for your product and services. Is that fair? Are you saving lives? NO. Bravado, it’s folks like you who have NO clue about pharma, so anything you say is unsupported BS. The FDA has strict regs. Drug companies require multiple phase trials. Therapies for HIV were demanded to be released sooner due to the nature of the disease. Sometimes drugs may fail post market as patients are not in clinically controlled settings.
[..YouTube..] He is in line with Fox, Beck, Palin and Limbaugh!This is what happens when lies are repeated over and over, even after we know they are lies. He is a part of those who do not accept the rules of our own Democracy. They call Obama names, they do not understand that Obama was elected because a vast majority of Americans were fed up with Republican leadership. They (Right wing Extremists) learned lessons from the insurgents and Al-Qaida in that they wage a propaganda war.
[..YouTube..] Dakota, the dog probably gets better medical care that alot of people in this country. Single payer
[..YouTube..] Say a lie long enough and it becomes the truth. BAd journalism and media malpractice are the norm. Do you know that we foot the bill for R&D and the rest of the world benefits from it? TV commercials give people information. They can talk to their docs. Only a doctor can write a script not a patient. You build web pages take Suboxone look at their site. Pharma has spent millions to educate people about diseases and treatments via unbranded deliverables, inform clinicians via CME settings…
[..YouTube..] cavecanem4 I realize that many see government as part of the problem, but after the past year, you have to admit that business is another big link in the problem. You could make the argument that if government had stepped into the banking industry sooner, we could have avoided this entire economic mess.The right solution is not going to come from either side exclusively. There needs to be real healthcare reform for everyone…
[..YouTube..] Go to politifact , com, that’s where everyone can get their facts straight. This man is quite obviously not reading the actual bill, but merely a conservative-biased interpretation of it. It doesn’t matter which political stance you have taken, all that matters is that when you make an argument, you use the truth to back up your statements.
[..YouTube..] I wonder who scared this poor old man, although I have a real good idea. He has stood there for 7 minutes repeating all of the lies and misrepresentations going on in the health care debate (and I use that term lightly).
[..YouTube..] Not all web developers make insane money. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Granted, some developers will overcharge for their services but I don’t. I offer a fair and competitive price for my services. I make a fairly decent living but I’m pretty much self-employed so I have to pay for my health insurance out of my own pocket. No breaks for being employed by a large company. As for pharma regs, explain what happened with Vioxx? Was that just a fluke? Or signs of a bigger problem?
[..YouTube..] BUT YOU SKEW THE DATA!YOU LEAVE STUFF OUT!YOU LIE BY OMISSION!”But it might not come to any of this prioritizing for the H1N1, experts conceded.”Maybe you should explain why you would do such a thing…
[..YouTube..] Note: At 2:30 count in the video he says: “…We have not done our duty as citizens” …meaning that he blames ordinary Americans for Congress’s shortcomings. Yeah, we allowed powerful interest groups to “buy” votes and decisions. So what is he doing? MORE OF THE SAME!!!!!!!!!!! Just as we, Americans and our President are trying to reverse that trend. Thank you Mr. TX!!!!!
[..YouTube..] superstretch I think the govt had a hand in the banking crisis. There were regs in place to avoid that. Alan Greenspan allowed the derivatives market to return…it was outlawed for about 50 years. Reform is needed and can be accomplished without this huge poke in the eye to the taxpayer. Govt is out of bounds on this. They can’t even run a VA hospital. Why would we want them in our lives to this extent?
[..YouTube..] donna…”TV commercials give people information”. People see a commercial about a drug and decide to ask their doctor about it. The doc prescribes it. The patient uses the drug, then dies of a heart attack because of it. Then come the Lawyers with a TV commercial to give people information about suing the drug manufacturer who advertised and sold the drug. To paraphrase Alan Keyes: “Have we gone mad?”. What a collosal waste of wealth. Humans survived for thousands of years without this bullshit.
[..YouTube..] Sorry, I just did a thumbs down on somebody’s post by accident. I thought I was doing a thumbs down on the video.
[..YouTube..] He is absolutely right. They work for US, not the other way around. Make our representatives enroll in the HC plan they provide for us, and you’ll get one that is great!
[..YouTube..] He is EXACTLY right! They work for us, not the other way around. Make them enroll in the same plan they provide for us, and you’ll get HealthCare that is great!
[..YouTube..] Jackie…Join the Club : )
[..YouTube..] There will be those who say there are no death consults…not so. There are already two provisions for those that are included in the cap and trade bill that was passed. The negative comments made are obviously from NONsenior citizens. You’d better realize that once this is passed it’s irrevocable and YOU are going to be old one day…if you are lucky.
[..YouTube..] As for the Post Office vs. FedEx argument, whatever the intention at the founding of the postal service, profit was not the motive; providing a means for communication and the benefits that entailed WERE motives. While the postal service stops at EVERY SINGLE mailbox, SIX DAYS per week, whether or not they have something to deliver (there MAY BE something to pick up), FedEx may bypass entire small towns if they have nothing to deliver there. FedEx doesn’t deliver letters for 44 cents, either.
[..YouTube..] Somewhere in a cloistered room, top Repubs and Dems met for a meeting, and it was decided, “You make abortion issues your cause and we’ll make health care issues our cause, and amid all the clatter we’ll fool these rubes into thinking we’re going to do anything for them, while we conduct our REAL business in high places which is to enrich ourselves and our cronies.” Oink.
[..YouTube..] There is so much misinformation here, I wouldn’t know where to start. Too much Fox news?
[..YouTube..] There is no final bill up for a vote. There are over 500 amendments under consideration.
[..YouTube..] one more point that is our children and grandchildren will be stuck with this overwhelming debt. That is not right. People that have retired or are about to retire have footed the bill for every item that Congress has come up with. Now we see them putting debt on our children. We can’t have that. I lived thru the 70’s trying to feed my family. The current debt is scary. We haven’t even hit the inflation cycle. That is just around the corner.
[..YouTube..] I sure am glad that only Republicans scream at meetings and use profanity. Repubs4HC1 must be on top of the pile of the Republican garbage (sic) (actually I surmise that he is actually a Democrat) that does those things at Town Hall Meetings.Obliviously, Repubs4HC1 lacks a little in the brain development department and needs ObamaCare the most.
[..YouTube..] Whitewolf, are you talking abour Viagra? Why not talk about other drugs like Herceptin that treat cancer patients who are surviving or other drugs that treat CF, RA versus male enhancement. There is a market for that..and men demand it. You are cherry picking for your convenience. And granted you can find fault in every industry. But if you seek to destroy Pharma in the US, it will thrive elsewhere cheaper but you will still pay.Where is the outcry for OTC meds that kill people? Go research it.
[..YouTube..] Not enough Fox news..there is a reason why CNN is known as the communist news network and ABC is the all barrack channel. Wake up sxstein. Go research the days of Stalin…and then you will connect the dots, do some critical thinking.
[..YouTube..] People, Wake Up Here..there is NO PUBLIC OPTION..that is an obama lie for this criminal damn obamacare…only public option is to let the damn Government take over Healthcare..these criminal bastard have lied to you for decades and have no damn business in Healthcare at all..reason obama wants it is to have MORE CONTROL of the citizens of the United States of America. Impeach this criminal bastard now!
[..YouTube..] What an ass
[..YouTube..] I hope your “for-profit insurance company” doesn’t refuse to treat your obvious dementia when they realize it’s a pre-existing condition…
[..YouTube..] If the stimulus isn’t working, it was largely written by a collection of leftist interest groups called the Apollo Alliance that counts among its directors a co-founder of the Weather Underground. The Labor Department reported Friday that 42 states lost more jobs than they gained in August, and that 14 plus Washington, D.C., reported unemployment rates of 10% or more. how’s that working for us?
[..YouTube..] More on the Calgary mom of 4.It is interesting that the Calgary Health Region picked up the tab for the babies’ U.S. health care – from $1,500 to $2,000 a day for the mother, Karen, and from $6,000 to $7,000 a day for each of the four girl’s stay in intensive care. Had Karen delivered in Calgary (pop 1,010,000 Great Falls pop 56,690), her care would have cost $800 a day, and it would have been $2,500 a day for the quads. See how much less non existent care is in Canada?
[..YouTube..] donna…I’m just making the point that advertising on TV of prescription drugs is a bad idea. I have no problem making them all OTC, and then wouldn’t have a problem with the advertising. Why, if you’ve determined based on an ad that a drug may help you, should you then have to inform your doctor of it, then PAY HIM to allow you to purchase it? That doesn’t make any sense to me. Actually, it is a cartel operation designed to keep prices artificially high through the “aura” of the prescription.
[..YouTube..] What do you expect? The future generations have always had to pay for previous debt, as in Medicare. He is wrong to assert that Medicare is not working. I receive Medicare and have no problems with it as do millions of other people in this country. Who does he think will pay for the Iraq war? It will be our children. They’ll deal with it, just as we have.
[..YouTube..] “I have no problem making them all OTC” REALLY? wow, then it is okay to have schedule III drugs OTC? TV ads inform people about all kinds of products/services. You obviously don’t understand the biz. Be careful my friend about your thoughts and they run down the slippery slope. Hmm, let’s shift to cell phones, kids die texting while driving. The cell companies have NO disclaimers about that. Just tout the benfits of their product. Where’s your outrage on cell phones? Is that fair and balanced?
[..YouTube..] Joe Wilson was the only one with a pair to point out the LIE. Next on deck is amnesty for ILLEGAL criminals. We need to de-magnitize America. ILLEGALS are the cause of many ills, and one root reason for bankupted hospitals who pas the costs on to American citizens. Do some homework on this topic. Look up MRSA in the ER setting. Take time to look outside the media malice.
[..YouTube..] People should take this very seriously and remember it when you VOTE!!!!!GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!
[..YouTube..] Why don’t you wake up!!!!
[..YouTube..] Cowboyinthewest,Why is it that it’s only Americans trash talking Canadian healthcare, but never, you know, any REAL Canadians?What’s your source? I am certainly willing to be convinced, because I am open minded. That’s more than I can say for some of the partisans.Now answer me this… Why are so many Americans going to Tijuana of all places for routine things like eyeglasses, contacts or prescription meds? My source? My MOM.
[..YouTube..] Thank you Mr. Crawford. it is amazing to me that even when you read the bill word for word (which I have) people who have been brain washed still refuse to believe the truth. It reminds me of magicians. Do not look at what is in my right hand, only what is in the left. They really want you to look at the right hand, so you won’t look at the left. Tell anyone what is being quoted is right wing propaganda, & those same people, will rely on what is being said to them, not what is on paper.
[..YouTube..] iicheezywhiz (well-chosen name) should research the facts. The administrative costs of Medicare are less than 3% and much lower than the insurance-run “Medicare Advantage” rip-offs, which average 14%.
[..YouTube..] you mean like the one G W Bush signed into law when he was Gov. of Texas that tells health providers there how to consult with family members towards end of life.
[..YouTube..] The banking problems were at least partially caused by congressional attempts at social engineering. While some oversight is necessary, too much government can be worse than none. You are right that no one party has all the answers. What we need is more respectful discussion and less name calling and stereotyping.
[..YouTube..] Have you ever worked in a surgical center office? Medicare offers piddlins to docs and you mostly get generics. Need to research them, so may cause adverse events that send you to the ER. Private insurance create formularies and contract with Rx companies. Tier placement determines your co-pays. Why on God’s green earth would you want the gov’t to decide your care? Limit your options? It’s mind spinning.
[..YouTube..] I know plenty of Canadians. Some are here illegally. The care sucks from what they tell me. I know a girl from the UK who has cancer, very sad. She could get it for free but stayed here, enrolled in a trial and is doing great.
[..YouTube..] Seems u expect responsible indiv to fend 4 themselves against megacorps who are taking our money n becoming billionaires while we continue to suffer or to stand in line to suffer? M/b you’re one of the CEOs of one or a few of them enjoying the high life w/ our earnings. You’ve taken enough of our 401ks and investments for retirement. Soon we’ll have nothing else to give you while you send jobs overseas for cheaper workforce and greed. You’re destroying this country!!
[..YouTube..] Part of the reason is there is no need to practice defensive medicine in Mexico. Insurance costs are probably much less. Wages are lower and so on. I think everyone except trial lawyers would agree tort reform would help. And yes the insurance laws do need to be changed to allow a free market and force competition. Would those things fix everything? Probably not but after those changes had a couple of years to establish a new norm we would know better what to do next.
[..YouTube..] donna…I believe in personal responsibility. How about you? And apparently, I’m not getting my points across. RE: cell phones. Imagine that you saw a commercial for a cell phone and decided that it might be of use. BUT YOU COULDN’T JUST GO OUT AND BUY ONE. You were required to go to someone WHO HAD NO IDEA THAT YOU MIGHT NEED A PHONE and inform THEM that it appeared useful, and then PAY THEM A FEE to receive PERMISSION to purchase the phone. THAT is analogous to the advertising of prescriptions
[..YouTube..] Typical scare tactics through reading off Repugnant party talking points. Some people just can’t get enough of being ripped off by private insurance companies who have no purpose other that to charge as much as possible in return for as little coverage as they can get away with providing.
[..YouTube..] MESSAGE TO THE “CONCERN TROLLS” OUT THERE:Always enough money for WAR and DEATH, is that it?Never enough money to take care of your fellow countrymen. AMERICANS! This makes me so mad!
[..YouTube..] this guy is an idiot. that’s plain.he should stick to screaming at kids to get offa his lawn.it’s said that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. or anything else it seems. he can rage against the dying of the light all he wants, won’t change a damned thing.and HE’S sick to his stomach!! thoughtful and well spoken, my ass. really, now!
[..YouTube..] If you want to get thumbed down, point out that Sarah Palin, before she quit, made a pseudo-holiday out of “Healthcare Decisions Day” in Alaska. That’s clearly where she cooked up the idea for “death panels” if you read the text.If you REALLY want to get thumbed down, prove it by presenting objective evidence.”Healthcare Decisions Day”ht tp: // gov.state .ak. us/archive. php?id=1094&type=6Copy/paste that into your browser window, and remove the spaces. Hit Enter.THIS is Sarah Palin!
[..YouTube..] Hey hobnailrose (WTF is that)…go back to Burger King and flip some more patties you moron! This is a true American unlike your commie-ass. ‘this guy is an idiot’ huh, huh, huh. So I guess if someone states 2+2=4…uh…that person is an idiot too. Jackass!!!
[..YouTube..] Mega corporations are ruining our country, and most of you email forwarders can’t WAIT for a chance to beg for the dick.You guys are one illness away; ONE ILLNESS AWAY from total financial ruin and you STILL continue to beg for your chance to suck Republican dick.Since Republicans ALWAYS side with mega corporations AGAINST the common man, I feel my interests AS an individual, AS a working man, AS an AMERICAN CITIZEN are better represented by Democrats.It’s not a free market; it’s rigged.
[..YouTube..] LAUGHATREPUBLICANS and the other KOOL AID drinkers…. keep on drinking the KOOL AID BUBs,,, AS FAR as war and death comment,,,,YOU OBVIOUSLY are not a AMERICAN,, BECAUSE IF YOUR WERE… you would know that because of the many Soldtiers that GAVE ALL that gives YOU the right to drink the KOOL AID you drink,,, here have another drink,, YOU Soldier HATERS MAKE ME LITTERALLY PUKE >>>>>CARRY ON PATRIOTS
[..YouTube..] nitewriter66,Just quit it. NOTHING is irrevocable, including the Constitution that NOW you pretend to champion after George Walker Bush tore to shreds.You got fuck nugget Republicans like Joe Barton threatening to repeal (revoke) any reforms if passed.NOTHING is irrevocable, including the Constitution that NOW you pretend to champion after George Walker Bush tore to shreds. Where were you when our Constitution was REALLY getting stepped on? Huh? Thought so… You guys are fuckin’ STUPID.
[..YouTube..] Ok. therealnutsack. You need to go back and flip some burgers along with drinking all that kool-aid. You’re so smart, as we can tell from your statements, that you don’t even realize that of the top 50 richest congress people, 80% are DEMS!!! So your the “fuck nugget” as your high IQ put it. Go back to playing your video games and just call mommy and daddy when you need so more dough. Jackass.
[..YouTube..] You couldnt have said it any better norubeaml. These fools will learn the hard way , and we will all pay for it in the end. Havent looked in a while but the average american is in dept 280,000 and dont know it. Way to go democrates
[..YouTube..] dellamarie0826,Oh, I’m gonna remember it, alright.I’ll remember how you treated your fellow countrymen like garbage.I’ll remember how how you called ME an elitist because I flipped parties, while you say to your fellow AMERICANS, “Fuck you, Communist. Get a job.”I’ll remember WHICH PARTY stands behind the same big business interests that WRECKED our country.I’ll remember how you cheered the further destruction of your fellow citizens.I’ll remember your affront to Jesus’ lessons…
[..YouTube..] Kool Aid comments = INSTANT MORON.It sounds like I love our soldiers more than you do, since I want them to LIVE!It’s like this:We protest against DEATH!You protest against LIFE!See how that makes you look?You blather on with your silly patriot junk. You don’t own that, you know. I want Americans to live longer, healthier lives. As someone else here put it, you can’t wait for your chance to suck corporate dick! What have you got to say now, “patriot?” Answer me. This should be good!
