So true. That's why I don't have health insurance.

How can anyone make a informed educated decision when the details of the bill are not known?

How can a person who says we will do things differently - promising open and transparent cspan coverage then deal behind closed doors ?

If this bill is so good ... why would you need to do "Lousiana purchase" or the "Cornhuskers kickback" not mentioning the union debackle?

The federal government would offer financial incentives to states to expand Medicaid to cover childless adults and parents.

Sofiyya, what if you got into a car accident and needed extensive surgery and hospitalization? Medical bills are the number one cause of bankruptcy. It's really dangerous not to have health insurance if you can afford it.

What if you got a HC plan forced on you that you didnt want? WHAT IF?

What if you could choose a plan that suited your circumstance?

PLEASE just start thinking independently!

I have been hospitalized and I paid cash. That's what I do. Even with insurance, you can go bankrupt, but without it, you get a big discount. That's an industry secret few know. Health care w/o insurance saves money.
