So, I turn on CNN this morning. The talk of the hour is the details of this "Reform" plan. Initially, I'm glad to hear about it. I have a new lump in my neck that I need to see my doctor about, even though I can't afford it, but will need to do it.
What the fuck is this shit? This "Health" bill is supposed to be touted as "reform"? I get a mandate that I need to purchase private junk insurance, wherein I am obligated to cover 35% of the actual cost of services, and they "cover" the remaining?
THIS is what the duly elected "Representatives", whom we've all donated money to, and worked so hard to elect - have decided to shovel over? The same people who screwed up the stimulus plan, the same people who have amnesia about the promises that got them elected? THIS is what they give us?
Who in their right mind would think this could possibly constitute reform? 35% of costs is a pretty freaking huge number if you ask me - especially considering the costs for procedures. They seriously think that this will improve the situation with medical bankruptcies?
