| GOP and Healthcare |
A few months ago Brown said a public option: “is going to kill people.”
One of Brown’s constituent said he could not afford insurance to cover treatment for his major depression disorder. To my amazement, Brown’s response was for him to go to the emergency room. Wait a minute! Emergency Room should be used for emergency situations, not a medication for depression. Later on, Brown said the Emergency Room is the most expensive way regarding healthcare. So why would he pump up the cost of healthcare? The constituent blurted out “That’s why we need a public option.”
Senator Chuck Schumer (D) New York, says Medicare is far more government run than the bill itself (Schumer Bill). He asked Senator Charles Grassley (Rep) Iowa if Medicare is a good program. Senator Grassley said he believes Medicare is a part of a social fabric of America. After forty years, just like Social Security, believes some improvement can happen, but he is in favor of Medicare.
Grassley only want to keep two sources in his head as to why the public option is so bad.
1. Heritage says eighty-three million people are going to be forced out of their plan into the public option.
2. Luen group says one-hundred twenty million people will be forced out. Luen group is owned my United Healthcare (UNC) whom spent million of dollars opposing the public option.
Isn’t it funny that Republicans admits to opposing the public option plan because it might get popular, which means the private insurance companies cannot get rich.
