Check it out - Kucinich argues for public option
We should at least be able to choose public option and not be forced to buy private insurance.

Please recommend the thread. Thanks.

We all know that insurance cos will drop us if we get sick, raise rates constantly,
increase deductibles, deny coverage, refuse coverage and not cover every day health care.

I want a public option or medicare type option.

The last thing we should do is make insurance companies richer.

1. I'm not recommending a post that lies about the bill.
No, we don't "all know that insurance cos will drop us if we get sick, raise rates constantly,
increase deductibles, deny coverage, refuse coverage and not cover every day health care."

That's exactly what the bill is for.

2. I agree. Lies from so called progressives are no better than
lies from the RW.

3. how DARE I oppose the insurance companies, its not like they OWN our congress
after all they are known to be so fair. And since corporations now have free speech
thanks to John Roberts' court, we KNOW we can trust the bastards right?

4. Kucinich is a co-sponsor of HR 4789
Kucinich is a co-sponsor of HR 4789 - The Public Option Act. Tough to see Congressman Kucinich beaten down. Information about HR 4789 - see www.WeWantMedicare.org

If there is no public option, are we going to be required by law to support the health insurance industry? Not exactly slavery, but similar.
