President says Kentucky needs ObamaCare

The Obama Administration will release reports for every state in the nation Friday describing how things will be better for everyone in each state if we let him implement socialized medicine.

Quit crying for insurance companies.

Seriously, they kill people for profit. It's Congressional Testimony.

John, all single-payer or "public option" is going to do is take the worst of Big Insurance and combine it with the worst of Big Government. The choice doesn't have to be public option or status quo. The problems that existed prior to implementation of the current government involvement in healthcare services have been made worse by the government involvement. The scoundrels in the insurance industry thrive in government created niches that protect them from competition. Get the government out of the way and let the market innovate. That is the option you are ignoring in the current debate.

I say get insurance out of the way and let doctors go back to practicing medicine rather than trying to figure out how to bill insurance to maximize their profits!

The insurance monster is the problem. If we could eliminate insurance companies and have the medical profession bill things at actual cost, the cost of health care in this country would be absolutely minimal.

That may have been true, 10:17, many decades ago before we had a lot of the capabilities and technology we have today. A hundred years ago, if your knee joint wore out, you stayed off your feet. Or I suppose anyone with a saw and a strong stomach could have taken care of the problem. Today, very high quality knee replacements are plentiful because of the availability of insurance.

We don't need fewer insurance companies, we need many more. Greater competition would improve service and price. Government is the only impediment to this approach.

Why don't those who support cap n trade and socialized medicine post their personal contact information so we can all thank them personally for the higher prices on all consumer goods, utilities, food, and worse medical treatment that will be forced on us because they are complete morons who actually think their government office holders are intelligent and honest people.

Oh, better yet - how bout we just simply send John and his cronies a bill to cover the extra costs on everything? moron!
