Health care clears hurdle? Such Crap

Ok my brain is starting to hurt with all the BS on tv right now. I am avid watcher of Cnn, Msnbc and even Fox. And yesterday and today all the talk was about Sen Nelson and Sen Liberman and how they are either holding up health care or now clearing some hurdle.

let me say first that I am a lucky person because I have a great full time gig that pays 100% of my health coverage - the normal co-pay at the Dr office and a small co pay for perscription.

Unlike the millions with out health insurance or the other that pay through the nose, it irritates the hell out of me listening to our politicians debate this.

Even John Mccain said that Health care was a Right, he said during the election at either a debate or on letterman, dont remember.

How can so many in our goverment think that getting health care to everyone is a bad idea? Im not an expert or anything or a financial guru but good lord man, when you sick and someone says we could help you but since you dont have any insurance and cant pay for it your self, well your gonna have to die. Sorry, hope ya get better.

And I am not for free health care for all, we should pay for it. If my employeer came to me right now and said hey Micahel, times are tough, we need you and all of the employees to start paying a portion of thier premium. I would say no problem I understand. I am not rich by an means so paying out of pocket now will hurt me a little but not to the point of making me go broke. I may just skip a high class dinner at Carls Jr next week. Or skip my morning trip to Starbucks every now and then.

How can we as americans let other americans suffer for no reason? Why? Because were all selvefish, greedy, self absorbed, fat and lazy people.
We buy to much stuff, we need to much stuff for no good reason. We waste money on the dumbest stuff. Ever been to "Spencers Gifts"? Like we need any of that stuff? Nope, but we want it cause its neat, cool and stupid.

When was the last time you actually talked to your neighbor? Live in a apartment building? Anything more than a Hi, Morning, how ya doin? from your neighbors in the hall? Probably not. Why? Because we dont care about each other any more.

Its all about me, me me and my stuff, my money, my life. I dont remember who said this but someone did. "We only begin to change when we are faced with the end". Or something like that.

Things are not going to get better until we hit rock bottom and I dont think we have yet. The health care thing will pass, but its been so watered down at this point I dont think its going to make a substantial change.

They took out the thing about insurance companies not being able to put a cap on coverage. So if my insurance plan allows for 1 million $'s in coverage, and they think my bill will hit 1 million and 10 dollars? I will get denied coverage for that operation or whatever else I might not need? Same as before, Oh sorry your just gonna have to die... sorry

And seing these senators and congressmen/women talk on tv every night about how health care reform will bankrupt our children. Well we have bankrupted our children with every president and every congress. Every year we spend more and more. That crazy lady Michelle Bachman was praying for health care reform to fail.
other senators were praying for it as well (Saw it on Rachel Madow).

My god (and I do believe in in god) these people are nuts? How do these people get elected? And its not just the Republicans, we got some crazy dems Pelosi and Reid seem to be pretty damn nuts them selves. Always trying to please everyone, Obama doing the same thing. Yes its always nice to place nice, but we need stuff done and done now. Take off the gloves and crack some skulls. Walk your butt down to Capital Hill and whoop some ass.

We need some people in office who are willing to stand up and stay what is actually on thier mind. I saw the clip of Franken snapping liberman back from continuing his talk after his time had expired. Ok, so maybe Frnaken could have let him... but rules are rules, and then Mccain (who I normally like a lot for being honest) steps up and says "I dont konw what is going on here in this body, but its not good" or something like that. Why are people in Washington so sensitive? Everyone wants to watch thier p's and q's, no one wants to offend anyone. Well sometimes people need to be offended. I honestly think we need to get all the old cronies out of the senant and house. It has been buisness as usual for decades, its time for real change. At least Michelle Bachman says what she is thinking.. even if she is a loon, she doesnt appologize for it...

Ok enough for now, I feel better
