I do think that all Americans want good AFFORDABLE health care and I do not understand why it costs so much in the USA and why the prices continue to go up.I do know one thing:the price for certain drugs is criminal and should be investigated. Oh,wait a minute....I forgot how much the big pharms give to our Reps and Senators and the insurance companies and on and on. People we are wasting our time and energy...just follow the money

This bill was a
POLITICAL response to the problem of high health care costs. Lost in the goal of making political gain was the original idea to lower cost, which this bill does not address in anyway.
You should really read this link from this weeks news...
http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnal...ObamaCare.aspx
I see no political slant to this at all....a few little tidbits...
"The Democrats said that under their plan, health care costs would go down and those who wanted to keep their insurance would be able to. A government official, though, says neither is true.
Appearing Wednesday at a House Budget Committee hearing, Medicare Chief Actuary Richard Foster said ObamaCare will not hold down health care costs, as President Obama and the Democrats promised it would."
AND THIS...
"Foster's office has projected, as well, that what the Democrats are calling reform "would collectively reduce the number of people with employer-sponsored health coverage by about 14 million."
