A masterpiece.

I don’t understand why it’s o.k. to politicians that we die by being denied the healthcare we pay for with our insurance premiums. Less American workers equals less American taxes being paid to keep our politicians in those shiny suits on t.v. telling us what they think we want to hear. We are not blind we can see your “stimulus package” was a payback to the banks for making bankruptcy legal, but where are the jobs YOU said would be created from it?? People are starving and homeless!!

i’m sorry but the republicans seem to think our healthcare system is just fine. Well guess what? Most insurance companies do not cover vaccination for H1N1, which is now a worldwide pandemic. This among other things is what republicans for some strange reason want to keep in place while citizens continue to drop dead.

corporations should not have the same rights as individuals. @ least the health care industry will no longer be except from anti-trust laws.

umm but since this one’s promoting health insurance reform…
Get to an issue then. Has anyone read the 1000 page bill?
go ahead thumbs down or w/e but i say that if you read the bill then you would also be against this “health reform”
sure we need reform but not what Washington’s proposing. Companies like cigna need to be stopped but i’ve never seen government run things better.

The republicans keep saying “we don’t want a bureaucrat between you and your doctor”, well right now we have assholes like Cigna between us and are doctors!!! A system where greed is the primary incentive will never work, and that’s why Capitalism needs to go down!!! It’s just too bad hypocritical liars like Shaun Hannity, Glenn Beck, and Rush Limbaugh have convinced the unsophisticated rednecks of America that the Government is out to get them.

Question…If insurance company knew insured had cancer ,wouldnt the drs that treated her of known for years to? Cigna has denied so many claims its criminal i agree!!!!
October 29th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
“will be prohibited from denying coverage for pre existing conditions” ???? Why would anyone buy insurance if they can do so after a health problem develops?
October 30th, 2009 at 1:17 am
Instead, they should make it portable from your employer, because otherwise you’re in an untenable situation when you leave your job after having been treated for a condition.

They’d also have to prevent the insurance companies from dropping people. “Why not insure someone if you can just drop them when they get sick?
October 30th, 2009 at 5:46 am
Agreed. Insurance should be personal. Employers should have nothing to do with it.
October 30th, 2009 at 5:54 am
True. But insurance companies are paying for the treatment of millons of people(some very ill) every year and not dropping them. I have to wonder what is unique about the ones being dropped.
How are these contracts written? I would assume “you can’t drop me no matter how bad things get” is a feature of these policies. Otherwise you are correct. Why not insure anyone if they can just be dropped whenever.

So its only a bunch of dumb rednecks that believe in liberty over equality. Not everybody votes based on what free hand outs are in it for them. Billionaire socialists vote to have their taxes raised and middle(even lower) classes vote against government handouts. They both do so because of principal, it does not make either one of them stupid.

It’s mostly the evil catholic church that has made a war on poor Americans that owns most or parts of these evil companies. I believe this was one also.
October 30th, 2009 at 8:37 am
I used the term “rednecks” in a tongue and cheek tone (even though it probably didn’t come across that way). Ultimately I was criticizing people like the Tea Party protesters who are out there opposing beneficial health reform because an extremist like Glenn Beck told them to.

The denial of claims by the “bad” insurance companies are less than 15%, while the denial rates of MEDICARE is over 22%! So its actually the government who is denying more people healthcare then the “bad” healthcare industry.
