NH: More Tea Baggers Heckle "Obamacare" - Party, Health

"tea baggers" gets more hits

Some people make the claim that if we can collectively share the cost of roads and other public services, why not health care, which affects us all? The answer is that by collectivising health care, no sector of the economy, from our environment (already used as an excuse for govt. theft and controls) to our foods, clothing . . . that can not be siphoned with legislation and more and more usurpation. This is not true with most other public concerns.

Instead the government says it will cover us and that if you don't buy it you will be penalized. So if you can't force the companies to cover the pre existing conditions, then the government will make you have their coverage. They put US in debt for 17.2 trillion now Obama care pushers think that these same people will save us from big pharma. Please... get a grip, control spending and then you can get these costs lowered. Less money in the market = higher value for the dollar.

This poor woman doesn't understand her options and because of laziness or stupidity didn't acknowledge them here. Her son will be eligible for benefits from another insurer for 18 mos. after losing benefits due to the HIPPA laws. That doesn't mean it will be cheap but it will be cheaper than paying for the treatments. Also cobra is available for him as well. Health insurance is not a right, it is a privilege. I know because I used to have it and now I don't.

Well why would a company take on a person with a pre existing condition. It's a money pit for them. You can't require a company to do things that will drive it under. There should be a government plan for those people who fall threw the crakes but not everyone. That would also make everyone's insurance cheaper.
