House health bill unacceptable to many in Senate - Yahoo! News

""The House bill is dead on arrival in the Senate," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said."

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has yet to schedule floor debate and hinted last week that senators may not be able to finish health care this year.

AMAZING WASTE OF TIME......and once again these %$%$%$%$wads have shown their concern for the American people...

"To keep down costs, the government subsidies and consumer protections don't take effect until 2013."

THAT'S WONDERFUL so by then the premiums will be so expensive that the average American can't afford them. Then they'll be building Federal Prisons to house all the healthcare deadbeats.
I'm glad this is dead in the water. The House Bill is a pathetic attempt to change "Health Care Reform" into "Health Care Expansion." The former could have lowered costs overall, the latter will increase costs for most.

I can't wait for this massive disappointment to come out.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates the Health Care Bill will cause insurance rates to increase 10-13%.

Increase? Where are the savings we were promised???

Very scary that this is the brains behind our future health care

On health care, Reid likens GOP to civil rights foes - Yahoo! News

Brilliant plan Harry, cut $400 Billion from Medicare then add everybody
over age 55 to it.

I thought the the reason for the HC plan was to cover the uninsured or
did they forget that??????

The initial reason for the HC plan was to *Cut Costs*. It has now been mutated into a "healthcare for everyone" situation, with only a vague mention to cost cutting.

Just politics as usual. If you're wrong about your initial plan, just continually repeat something different until the public forgets how it all got started. Reminds me of WMDs turning into "liberating the Iraqi people".

Nobody said that liberating the Iraqi people was the reason we went in JD. It's just what happens we you remove a dangerous, lying, brutal enemy of the USA from power. That really bothers you eh?
