Enough procrastinations and excuses. Another day of delay on Healthcare reform will cost American public money, health and even lives. America can't go strong without a good healthcare system.

If our health care system was so great under republicans, why do we need reform in the first place? 90% of Americans make less than $15 an hour and have to use home remedies everytime they get a cold. How much American productivity is lost because most people can afford to see a doctor? How many people are in Debt today because they had to pay out of pocket for medical proceedures? I dare anyone to say it's not a basic human right to see a doctor or a child to see a doctor in one of the wealthest nations on earth. I would like to know what's morally wrong with wanting to save money on prescription drugs. I wouldn't vote for the coward who says it's my fault I don't have health insurance when I have to pay taxes! Is this what the ill-informed and ignorant want. Lose your job tomorrow and then oppose health reform! Karma works too!

How stupid do you think we are. The GOP has zero control in the house or senate . So why are they trying to spin this intop blaming the GOP. Fact is there are Dems who are not in favor of the current bill. What nonsense this is.

Harry Reid is quoted as saying the biggest cost in Healthcare is inaction in Congress. Nonsense. The biggest cost will be Congressmen spouting platitudes about a thousand page bill they haven't read. God forbid they actually vote on it.
