I am old enough to received Medicare. I worked hard all my life supporting those who chose not to work. Why should I be punished now in the autumn of my life and not receive the benefits I worked for? I am not a rich pensioner, and I don't receive anything I and my husband didn't work for. I receive his SS benefits, not mine, so where is all the money I paid into the system? I want the choice to go to the doctor I have chosen!! Where are our freedoms?!!!

It is not enough for the Republicans to vote against the bill. They must use their influence to sway Democrats not to vote for the bill as well. My Senators know they are in jeopardy for re-election if the HC bill is passes - even if they vote against it! As a nurse, this bill will destroy HC as we know it in the United States!

If we have no CHOICE no VOTE? What kind of government is RUNNING US?!?! This is a major concern for myself and other like minded people who are proud to say we live in America where we have a FREEDOM OF CHOICE. Only, it is no longer seemingly free.
If you would like government ran/no choice insurance, I'll tell you what to do:
1. QUIT YOUR JOB
2. WOMEN ONLY- BECOME PREGNANT WITH CHILD AND DO NOT MARRY THE FATHER
3. LIVE ON ASSISTANCE AND MOOCH
ALL OF THESE WILL LEAD YOU TO : MEDICAID

God does not wish for, or hopefully allow, such distasteful things as abortion to be condoned. Other than that, Peace, Love, And God Bless, that ALL CREATION has access to healthcare and love and peace, wisdom, strength, cleansing, and salvation somehow. Put religion in healthcare and healing and light, not abortion.
Glory, Praise, Honor, Thanksgiving, And Blessings Always And Forever To You On Behalf Of All Creation, What We Say, Think, And Do! Always and Forever, Glory, Peace, Service, Love, Honor, Truth, Wisdom, Courage, Strength, Heart, Soul, Spirit, Life, Light, Grace, Gifts, Blessings And God Be! Always And Forever Alleluia, Amen!

The proposed bills do not address tort reform nor
does it address how the bill will be financed without further adding to our deficit spending. Addressing the economy, creating a favorable climate for small businesses, and addressing our ballooning deficit should be the main priorities of Congress.

SEIU is organized crime in pushing this reform.
This is not about health care reform. It's about health care control. Health care reform would control costs, protect providers and make health care more affordable. This can only be done through tort reform, uniformed reimbursement documentation, limitation on insurance advertising and marketing, allow a complete write-off of self-insurance and open state borders to competition. These measures in aggregate would reduce costs 45%. All without penalizing those taking their own risks not to be insured. Gee... I just saved 2,000 pages and billions of trees.

THE SENATE NEEDS 60 VOTES TO MOVE THIS BILL TO THE FLOOR OF THE SENATE. AFTER THAT, THE BILL WILL BE RAMMED THROUGH WITH AS LITTLE AS 51 VOTES AND REED WILL DO IT. THE MARXIST RADICAL LEFT WING HAS CLEARLY TAKEN OVER THE DEMOCRAT PARTY. PAY ATTENTION TO THE VOTE MOVING THE BILL TO THE FLOOR BECAUSE THAT IS ACTUALLY THE VOTE FOR THIS BILL BECAUSE ONCE IT IS ON THE FLOOR, SOME OF THOSE DEMS WHO ARE SCARED CAN VOTE AGAINST IT AND CLAIM THEY DID SO. BUT THE TRUE VOTE IS THE 60 NEEDED TO MOVE IT TO THE FLOOR. REMEMBER IN 2010 AND IN 2012. GINGRICH FOR PRESISENT IN 2012!

I urge you to oppose this BAD legislation that imposes government control over my health care. We the people do not want this and you know it. Do not cram socialized medicine down our throats. Congress must repond to the people. Let legislation of any kind free us up to be innovative on our own way and use our influences and ideas for real change. Please protect our freedoms. No more socialist agendas. We need real reforms –caps on lawsuits and reasonable common sense solutions that are fair for all and limit fraud and lawsuits. We have some of the best healthcare already. Govenment cannot even run the health programs it has now let alone a public option. This is outrageous and detrimental to our country.. If this goes through we are forever a socialist country and you all know it. Stop the nonsense. Sometimes I think congress would serve us better by not serving.. By the way term limits is an issue I do support along with smaller Federal governing. And by the way I am not a right wing or left wing nut. I am a educated American Citizen who sees an out of control Federal Government who seeks nothing but power and control over everything. This government has been out of control for a very long time and not since the election of Obama. You people need to re-evaluate what America stands for and why we even have a Federal Branch of government. Stop now. Stop this bill..this is a sham and a shame. I feel like I have lost my beloved country..if not now it will be gone soon if this direction continues. Please be an American and stand for what you know is right.

No! Absolutely no to government health care! Last time I looked, this was still America, but it's getting harder to recognize. We have always been the home of the brave and free and I will do anything I can do to keep it that way.We live in the best country in the world. We need less government not more government in our lives. Americans we can take care of ourselves. Freedom is not free! We all need to get active to keep our country free!

Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security are going bankrupt and failing miserably... Why would Public Healthcare be different? It won't... If you want the best care and best medicine, you have to pay a proportionate amount of money... Profit for pharma companies is the only motivation to make better drugs... Public Health Care is a bad idea

Health care is a VERY personal thing and it should be considered one of
our many basic rights to make individual choices in ALL situations that relate to this aspect of our lives Having a choice in these most important matters is crucial to ALL aspects of our health. This attempt to have more control is simply reduced to the pharmaceutical industry greed for yet more money and power.

We will not go silently into the night. This imposing on our freedom. YOU have NO right to force us to pay more taxes, destroy small business, and inhibit the growth of the Economy. You have no right to choose this for us, cuz you feel you know best. YOU Deocrats/liberals forced us into this mess, by forcing the banks to give mortgages to people who could not afford. Good luck on staying in office next round! We are tired of Markists/Socialists Running my future and my Children. We will not stand by and watch you destroy Our freedom for a couple of dollars in your pocket. You try and sign this bill into affect, and you just resigned..... C-ya

Does anyone really think that the government can run our health care system? Current estimates are that they wasted or paid out over $47 billion last year in Medicare payments that were fraudulent or fake. We don't need larger government but a smaller one. Stop this now Congress...you "fat cats" are making things worse. It has always been shown that the private sector is much more able to run an efficient business model better than the government. Our progress in the medical industry will also become stagnate with this kind of government control and regulation.

Our healthcare sysrem that we have now should be fixed instead of a government run healthcare.There is too much over charging by Doctors and Hospital's for tests.The healthcare system we have now should be fixed.We are Americans and live in the land of the free and the brave and have always had freedom of choice.This new healthcare plan would not give us those freedom's or choices in our healthcare.It also is going to put our country in more debt.I say that this healthcare bill needs to be thrown out and a better one that fixes our system and is not government run should be worked on.Healthcare is important to the American people and it shouldn't be rushed.Our senate needs to take it's time on working on something that matter's so much to our countries people.We should have our freedom's in Healthcare.Vote this bill out!
