No longer will insurance companies be able to drop your coverage if you become sick

[walter4]

Thank you Barack Obama, and thank you Democratic Party.


(..and fuck you GOP).

They can no longer deny coverage or treatment due to pre existing conditions

For the first time in American history ACCESS to health care is available for everyone

Thank you President Obama

Guess what...insurance companies are just going to pack up their business then. No point in staying in business if you cant make a profit. Mark my words...by this time in 10 years, there will be no insurance companies anymore and people will just be paying cash for medical services (but at least they will be 80% cheaper just like in asia or mexico.)

Not paying attention to the market?
The Morgan Stanley Health care payor index is up nearly 30% since the November lows. Wall street loves the bill - which should make the average American worry.

There were 2 Congressional races a few months ago,Democrats won both,one in a heavy Republican district.Don't get your hopes up for the Republicans in 2010 .Ann Coulter was on the radio today saying the same thing.Many seats that are up for grabs are in big liberal States

It is a good bill for the insurance companies,but the public as well imo

I have no problem with insurance companies as long as they do the right thing,which they will now be forced to do

The taxes that are associated with this socialist power grab will start being extracted in a few short weeks after Chairman Obama's signature, while the so called "reform" is years away....

My bet is on a bloody nose for the "progressives" in 2010, a one term POTUS and a strong third party attempt in 2012.

The third party attempt will be from the hard,nut case,lunatic right(The Palin crowd,birthers,tea baggers,beck/hannity followers etc) which will take votes away from the Republican candidate.(Ross Perot ring a bell ?)

Republican,conservative,moderate republican ,infighting will allow Obama to easily win re election

As far as taxes,since 2008 people were saying taxes would be extracted the minute Obama was sworn into office,I haven't noticed any difference in my paychecks

If I can pay taxes for wars,bailouts ,police,firefighters etc I can pay them for healthcare
