Covers 94%?


Why doesn't the proposed health insurance bill cover 100%?

Anyone know who these millions of people will be?

2. That's because in any version Congress comes up with, they are still allowing
the for-profit insurance companies the advantage. They are basically bending over backwards to ensure the insurance vampires have a place at the table. After all, the lobbyists for the insurance companies are estimated to be spending approximately $1 million dollars a day to lobby Congress.

and we have plastic patriotism and a ''fuck you'' financial elite.
