      Did I hear her say this won't get underway until 2013? Well, then you can add me to the ranks of the uninsured, because at the rate BC&BS is hiking my premiums, despite filing few claims over the past 11 years, I won't be able to afford coverage in less than 2 years. Hope I and the other (by then) 60 MILLION uninsured folks don't get sick in the interim.

        Do you have a cell/smart phone? How about cable TV? Obviously you have the internet..., how about a flat screen TV? Do you own a new car? Do you take yearly vacations? How often do you eat out?

        People have this notion health care should be free. It shouldn't be. You need to pay for it. If you don't have enough money, get another job. If those jobs don't pay for it, get an education to improve your station in life. I have no duty or obligation to pay for your insurance.

        What we have today is a bunch of entitlement minded sheeple thinking the government owes them something and they are more than ready to feed at the public trough all the while being led to the slaughter. Government and politicians could care less about you -- they are only interested in keeping people on the economic plantation and dependent on them so they stay in power. Wake up!

      This was one of the more rational discussions I've seen excerpted. The thought that your premiums for an employer plan won't change in the near term may be wishful thinking but it could be right.
