Please let's stop the supporting the healthcare insurance companies. JoeOtterbein Jul 2019 #5

Why not let everyone decide for themselves instead of telling them what's best for them? Reece2076 Jul 2019 #26

Maybe because that is a Repub talking point? JoeOtterbein Jul 2019 #27

I like Medicare for America, the plan Beto supports. Here is the actual text... Indygram Jul 2019 #17

Why does the OP prefer to pay private insurance companies over paying less to our government? Goodheart Jul 2019 #18

The public option would give you the opiton to pay less to our government Reece2076 Aug 2019 #32

I'm not sure it will be less.. I want everyone covered, but Sanders and Warren Hoyt Aug 2019 #34

And on I go... why does the OP think that private insurance companies exist to provide healthcare? Goodheart Jul 2019 #19

Personally I would give the governent run public option a shot Reece2076 Aug 2019 #33

Yes, I so much love to pay for insurance gtar100 Jul 2019 #22

Public option does not equal private insurance Reece2076 Aug 2019 #35
