... A SINGLE PAYER SYSTEM WILL ONLY BENEFIT GOVT UNION WORKERS AND BIGGER AND BIGGER BUREAUCRACIES AS MEDICARE WILL BE CUT BY OVER 500 BILLION SO THE MONEY CAN GO INTO THE POCKETS OF UNION WORKERS. Union payoff should get stripped from ObamaCare: Detroit News posted at 8:05 am on August 29, 2009 by Ed Morrissey Share on Facebook | printer-friendly Earlier in the week, we found out that unions have good reasons to conduct an Astroturf campaign on behalf of ObamaCare — in fact, ten billion good reasons. The Detroit Free Press reported that HR3200 gives a $10,000,000,000 subsidy to union pension and benefit plans, a key component that had gone largely unremarked. Later in the week, the Detroit News’ editorial board blasted the payoff and demanded its removal: One reason the public so distrusts the health care plan being considered by Congress is that so many troublesome details keep bubbling out of the massive legislation. The latest example is the $10 billion taxpayers will be asked to shell out to prop up the United Auto Workers’ retiree health insurance program. … In effect, it would ask every taxpayer, regardless of whether they’ll have health insurance coverage themselves after they retire — and most won’t — to chip in to maintain the UAW’s coverage, which even after the union’s givebacks is still better than what the average American worker receives. That’s one important point to remember. Union health plans will be exempt from the limitations of ObamaCare, allowing unions to operate as insurers while forcing everyone else into government-approved plans in “exchanges”. Instead of having the union pay for their own plans, taxpayers will subsidize them, while getting less themselves. The Detroit News notes that the biggest beneficiary of this largesse will be the United Auto Workers, whose pension plans are in serious trouble. This should be a showstopper anyway, as the American taxpayer has bailed out the UAW not once but twice, first in dumping billions of dollars into GM and Chrysler, and then in the politicized bankruptcies that gave the UAW large portions of both companies. We’ve spent enough on the UAW, thank you very much. As the editorial argues, it’s up to the UAW to adjust their pension plans to bring them into financial reality, not to the American taxpayers to subsidize their failure for a third time in a year. |

... This is an opportunity to do the whole country honor! Healthcare is not a commodity, as Bill Moyers points out. |

... The USA needs single payer health care. The government needs to quit listening to the lobby's and insurance company's. They are not about care and prevention, they are about money. |

... On Oct. 8, 2009, The Texas Harris County Democratic Party Executive Committee overwhelmingly voted to endorse single payer national health insurance. They voted yes to call on Congress to support the Weiner Amendment to HR 3200 to replace current language of HR 3200 with Language of HR 676.They also endorsed the Kucinich Amendment. This is significant because Texas is a conservative State - we have many blue dog democrats. This endorsement adds more cover to conservative Democrats to vote for Weiner's Amendment. |

... President Obama said the only way to cover everyone is with "single payer". Whatever happened to talk about universal coverage? Seems the only universal coverage is for the insurance company lobby! We have to have change. We have to have everyone covered. Why not single payer? Why not now? (Why wait for 2019?) |

... This issue is 65 years old. Let's solve it here...let's solve it NOW! The vote has become polluted in Washington. My political representatives (Utah) continue to cash large checks from the health business and ignore the fact that two thirds of Americans want meaningful reform. We all believe this is a great country, both "right and left", and that belief leads me to the conclusion that we can solve the issue, especially when we see that other countries have already done it. You can either light a candle or sit there and curse at the dark! |

... Coverage, coverage, coverage. We don't need no stinkin' coverage! We need care. Coverage is NOT care. Single-payer, Medicare for all is the ONLY solution. Everything else is just putting lipstick on a pig. |

... I also support single payer plan! We need to get the for profit companies out of health care! I pay for fire protection, police protection, water, sewer and trash removal because I need theses services. I don't pay insurance to a for profit insurance company for these services. Just as I pay for these Social Services for my basic social needs it only makes common sense that a social health service be provided by government . Health care is a social need and this service should be provided for all! |
