He is calling it what it is: Health INSURANCE Reform

[liberal N proud]

Insurance, not health care.

1. If it leads to secure health care for all - would you really be against it?

[liberal N proud]

3. I am not against it

I am all for it.

9. It leds to "health care for all"

by forcing people to buy insurance. How on earth is this "reform?" I won't support any "reform" that has a mandate to purchase insurance.

2. It's about fucking time

It's what it should have been called all along, because that's what it is.

4. Yup. Caught that.

Kinda like burglary reform.

8. Good one!

:thumbsup:

5. you cannot reform what doesn't exist.

[tekisui]

6. That's what it has always been. With the public option, though,

it can become health care overtime.

7. Single Payer is also health "insurance" reform.

The government simply takes over the insurance function currently done by private, for-profit entities.
It won't run Doctor's offices or hospitals. It WILL have the bargaining power of the only-player-in-the-game in terms of prices.
