There are two groups - us and our progeny. If taxes are raised, we pay higher taxes. If insurance companies pay, then we pay more for insurance. If doctors are paid less, they will bill for more procedures and the government will pay and pass it on to the taxpayers. OR we can have LESS healthcare for the SAME amount of money. I am on TriCare (retired military)and I am healthy... but I still have co-pay and it seems that I am paying about 1/8 of the total cost of healthcare (I recall that this was represented as free healthcare for life in 1968 when I was drafted).

The HR and the Senate is NOT interested in lowering healthcare costs... they are interested in a) government control and b)buying votes.

It makes no difference who pays... it circles back to US and our children and their children...

Where are the sheepdogs when you need them? Ba... Ba... Bah!
