Bro...around 18,000 people die every year because they cannot afford treatments that could save their lives. Another 25,000 declare bankruptcy every year because they're being crushed by medical bills. We are America...we can do better than that.

Why do you think the price of medical care has risen so high? It is because of all the free care that is written off. It gets paid, but from everyone else.

And I really want the Fed Gov to take over the heath care industry since they have done so good with the Social Security system.

LOL

I don't think we'll ever have a system like Canada's so don't worry guys. But we can have more available insurance at affordable rates. Obama's the only one supporting a vision that can achieve that.

When talking about the cost of health care...when the providers increase costs to make up for their losses and thereby increase the cost of insurance...don't forget to add the fact that this increase covers all the administrative fees and collection attempts involved, and what's necessary to provide for the profit margin. We're all paying for it...but in the most expensive way imaginable.

To say Obama "agreed" when he didn't actually vote for or against the measure is inflating the issue.

The funny thing about asking Obama a question that you propose, is the fact that he side steps most of them.

As opposed to McCain, who will give you an answer and then change it a few days later.

Afraid to answer the question? Did the liberal Democrats show you how to deflect a direct question? Is my question an argument? I've noticed the bickering between you and Jekyll, and just thought that if you are willing to see someone make that commitment concerning his soul; I was just wondering if you would stake your own on it. If not, your suggestion shows lack of leadership since you suggested it to begin with.

*translation* I think the rich folks should all be penalized for having all that money. I have an idea, maybe we should raise their taxes.

You're preaching to the choir; McCain isn't a real conservative and I can care less about his politics.

How do you propose we solve the issue of uninsured Americans, Brother Eastman?

Penalize the rich for having all that cash? I do not have the actual source, but I recall reading somewhere that George Bush paid more taxes than John Kerry. Is that because the Democrats know how to find loopholes in the tax laws that they create?
