I agree with Ed, except that they THINK they are better than the rest of us.

They only get first class treatment because they are so much better than all the rest of us. After all it is hard work spending money from tax payers.

It would seem upon studying this briefy (and now I would like to look into this further) that nothing is set in stone as of yet. There are proposals on the table and what this question is refering to is one proposal based upon income. ... There you go.
From my understanding based upon the initial idea is, 'Making health care available to all Americans'. What is wrong with that? We have it here in Canada. No one is left on the street with a broken leg or an exploding heart because they can not afford health care. Now, this is just my take on what I have read. I don't have the inclination on getting into any type of argument. Truly and honestly, I am just so thankful my parents emigrated to Canada and not the United States of America right about now.
I do have a friend that not so long ago could not go to the doctor when she was sick because she had, at the time, no health care plan in place... that is just sickening to me. Even in my tightest times I have never had to worry about health care. It isn't as if we don't have to pay some sort of fee, we do but no one is left out because they can't pay.

The problem in the US is health insurance companies and drug Companies.They have been lobbying against National Healthcare. They make billions of dollars of profit every year
Get government out of it, they screw up everything, or change them....

Too much hidden things in this health plan, this scares me.
When did you see someone denied medical coverage that needed it, my sons girlfriend takes the kids and her mother to the doctor and hospital when ever they have a pain and they never pay a dime or ever had insurance.
My wife and I have Insurance and it cost us plenty when we need to go.

We are told that "all men are crated equal". We are told there should be "no child left behind". We are told that everyone should have equal opportunities for employment.
I have retreated into my shell like a scared turtle. There is very little working in the US the way it should. I got a "funny" email about how the "elderly" should be put in prisons and prisoners should have the benefits and respect afforded the elderly. If I was smarter, I'd post the whole email here, because it pointed out how well the prisoners are treated compared to the elderly citizens.
My personal thought remains: Elected officials are supposed to be public servants. They should NOT be paid more than $3000/month for their time and effort. They should not have budgets for travel, entertainment, postage, or anything else. PUBLIC SERVANTS serve the public; they should not be served BY the public. Passing laws that exempt any law-abiding citizen from mandatory participation (such as this healthcare nightmare) is NOT treating everyone as though they were created equal. It IS leaving children (and others) behind, and it is NOT giving everyone equal opportunities.
If it is good for the goose, it is good for the gander.
Back to my shell.
