A government-sponsored public plan option continues to be the most contentious issue in the current health reform debate. Proponents of the option believe it provides an alternative. It lets Americans choose between a government-run option and private insurers, while at the same time applying competitive pressure to the rest of the insurance industry. Opponents say the introduction of a public plan would lead to the federal takeover of the country’s healthcare system, thereby restricting patient choice, reducing quality and increasing the power of the federal government. As health legislation continues to be debated, one has to ask whether members of Congress writing such legislation would actually enroll themselves in a new government-run healthcare option. Current draft healthcare legislation exempts members of Congress from the public plan option, allowing them to keep their existing plans. http://www.healthtransformation.net/cs/public_pla...

Staten island is a mostly Republican county by the way... and I expect our elected reps (tho I didnt vote for the one that is in currently) to act on our behalf and defend our constitutions not wipe their butts with it which is apprently what they are doing

That was my first question Scott... Tell me when you were able to read the bill because as I understood it, the bill was not available to the house which is odd considering they all voted on it... you would think they know we are on to them about this and they would at least put some effort into pretending that they read the damn thing!!! My other question was if his whole district was for cap and trade why did I have such a hard time gettint thru to his office and the switchboard and his website because Im just so sure that only the people in Staten Island were calling to say just how over joyed we are that he was going to vote yes... NOT!!! I also asked in my reply email if he was willing to release the number of calls he got both for and against cap and trade... well... we see how well that went!!

sorry I didnt proof read it good... it should say that hospitals cant turn away anyone needing treatments they have grants given to them for that reason. I worked in a hospital so I know this as fact... My family comes from a country that has healthcare for all (aka Nationalized Health Care) They wait weeks to be seen for a simple cold which goes away faster then they can be seen... and god forbid they need tests... A National Healthcare system works awesome if your not sick... its when you become sick that you'll wish it wasnt changed... Read about England and how they ration health care... is this really what we want for our citizens? They will decide who lives and who dies? Thanks... but not thanks... thats my opinion as I said I worked in a health care field... they need to correct the problems that exist now not create a whole new set of even bigger problems :( (hate when you cant get all your thoughts into one post... )

Weezo I respect your opinions why we would want health care as its proposed. A hosp cant turn anyone away needing treatment they have granted for that. I feel like we are giving all our rights away. Countries with a "health care for all" come to the USA for treatment where will Americans go? I agree that something needs to be done but I dont agree with the ideas out there now which will end up not covering all Americans anyway and in the end cost us trillions more maybe they need to focus on current costs. The Govt cant run the things they run now efficiently so how on earth will they be able to manage health better then me and my dr? wonder do you think the Govt will keep the same health care they currently have which is the best plan our there or will they be forced to take what Im sure they will vote for?? Somehow I think they'll keep theirs...

Oh Im so mad!! I called my congressman and emailed him a few days before the idiot voted for Cap N Trade!!! I got an email thanking me for getting in touch with his office blah blah blah and how his constituents are for it ACROSS the board!! Well not exactly the case... the facts he cited in his email really made me upset so I took a few hours to find all my facts from various governmental websites regarding it and went back to his website cut and paste his response along with my NEW response to his "form letter" Well.... I just got back the SAME form letter as I got the first TWO times!!! And so not only do I waste my time calling and emailing him because he just votes his own way but now I wasted time actually responding only to get the same BS... Well Congressman Michael E. McMahon Representative for the 13th District of New York... I hope your proud of yourself... cuz the same way you voted without regards for me is the same way I will vote for you when your time comes... You wont even be an option!!!

My congressman had the nerve to say that his constituents (of which I am one) are across the board for cap and trade... and I'm like your kidding me right??? I'm thinking across the board means everyone in his district... and I can bring about 200 people if not more to his office that are NOT ON BOARD with him or his fantasy that we favor this vote and we are pissed about his Yes vote!! The do live in a fantasy world because they sure don't live in OUR world... We pay taxes out the... well you know the saying... and here they are taking luxury vacations and spending our money on turtle tunnels and useless studies when people are losing their jobs??? I seriously hope people are taking notes so when it comes time to vote they get ALL the bad guys dems or reps out of Washington!!

I sent an email to Miss Ma'am... and here is what I got back today... Dear Friend: Thank you for contacting me regarding the recent Senate hearing with Brigadier General Michael Walsh. I appreciate hearing from you on this matter. Shortly after the hearing, I called General Walsh, and we had a friendly and productive conversation. We expressed our respect for one another and our determination to work together to protect our nation and communities from natural disasters. Thank you again for writing to me. Please feel free to contact me in the future about this or any other issue of concern to you. Barbara Boxer United States Senator um... yeah

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people. You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient. You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do. You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view. You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing. Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others. You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail. You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America' crowd and deliver this message abroad. You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector. You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one. You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves. You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world. You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations. You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA Dear President Obama: You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me. You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you. You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.. You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American. You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll. You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don't understand it at its core.

Not sure if anyones posted this... but I just got this in an email and think it basically says it all... I will have to post it in sections... sorry Note: This letter is all over the net and was supposedly sent to the WallStreetJournal, the NY Times and USA Today... here's some truthful background on the named author: Lou Pritchett rose from soap salesman to Vice-President, Sales and Customer Development for Procter and Gamble and over the course of 36 years, made corporate history as an "Agent of Change" at P&G. He stood at the vanguard of corporate futurists to challenge a hidebound corporate giant to face the future by creating the future, thus ensuring its continuing role as one of America's great corporate success stories. Since retirement from P&G, Lou Pritchett has become one of America's most popular speakers on customer partnering, change management and the growing importance of the human factor in the tidal wave of 21st century technology. His presentations, always delivered with humor and enthusiasm, have inspired long established Fortune 500 companies and upstart entrepreneurs alike.
