- People seem to forget that they are already required to pay for vehicle insurance yet nobody is calling Obama a socialist for allowing auto insurance or fire stations and public schools to exist still. You must pay for public schools even if you don't have kids because guess what? Someone else paid your way through school so it is only fair. Same thing for healthcare. People forget that we are not a true democracy and we already have several 'socialist' services that we can not survive without.

- With the new bill, if you like to keep your current Dr., you simply do.
- With the new bill, if you like to keep your current health plan, you simply do.
- With the new bill, we will be on a path to REDUCE the deficit by over 1 trillion, which is the most amount since 1990.

- Effective right away, With the new bill, insurance companies can no longer do the ridiculous which was to deny coverage for a pre-existing condition (which I have) which makes sense, since those are the people who actually need insurance & healthcare! Healthy people don't need healthcare, yet insurance companies thought it was a great idea to only insure them which made insurance hypocritical and useless.

- We do not live in a country full of individuals living in caves making fires and hunting squirrels (or at least most of us), therefore we must coexist and subscribe to group plans such as insurance and fire departments and public schools and on and on, and we should not treat our citizens like animals and we should provide healthcare options for all. If you don't approve of this bill, you are saying you would not approve of your own family member getting necessary treatment which clearly would be a lie. If you want healthcare for you it must be for all, kinda like the golden rule.

- It is common how people resist any change in life, even a change to the packaging on their usual flavor of cereal. But people who think somehow Obama is going to take over and/or destroy the world by providing surgery and band-aides to all his citizens, are out of their minds!
