Re: Blue Dog Democrats
well rob, just last month, 72% of americans polled supported a public option. seems to me then the advertising blitz of b.s. attack ads spearheaded by private insurance firms and other corporate interests have so far been effective. i think it's sad that americans won't have a basic human right that the rest of the western industrialized world has.
Poll: Most Back Public Health Care Option CBS News/New York Times Survey Shows Most Americans Approve Of Government Intervention In Health Care Coverage (CBS) A clear majority of Americans -- 72 percent -- support a government-sponsored health care plan to compete with private insurers, a new CBS News/New York Times poll finds. Most also think the government would do a better job than private industry at keeping down costs and believe that the government should guarantee health care for all Americans. The new poll shows the idea of a government-sponsored plan, or "public option," to be fair non-controversial, though Democrats in the Senate have considered nixing the proposal in order to win Republican support for the bill. House leaders on Friday unveiled a health care reform plan that includes a public option. link |

Quote:
again, were confusing health care with health insurance. Every American has access to healthcare. Allow me to repeat that for the non-Americans... Every American has the ability to walk into a hospital and will recieve medical attention at any time, even if they are destitute.. The issue is how to pay for it.
