Of course PWC lied!

I guess she didn’t get it when approx 1 million folks showed up in DC on 9-12 to tell all of them “WE DON’T TRUST YOU!”

“’... the insurance industry is making huge profits off peoples’ need for healthcare...”

Yes, they are also paying huge taxes off peoples’ need for healthcare.

I still want to know how they intend on making up the loss of taxes that health insurance companies pay when they are belly up or making considerably less profits.

And I don’t believe you are a republican either. Go join the other party and be done with it.

Was not Maine part of Massachusettes once? If so, along with Massachusettes, it is an area I would be glad to return to the King.

UNH (United Health Care). Their stock has gone from 60 to 20 about..in three years. They pay virtually no dividend.
So how are they getting rich off the profits? Maybe the Execs are well paid, but the shareholders are in the tank.
I don’t think they can squeeze much more out of them.

She says we have to reform healthcare. Nothing could be further from the truth, espeically if the reform is to make it worse with a government controlled plan.

But she believes the garbage numbers for the Baucus legislation? Snowe needs her head examined.

I can paint my own house and may be even make my own paint but paint is not always necessary. I can’t sue or make drugs on my own.

The fix is in. They will jam this thing through. None makes sense in this fragile economy unless the desired outcome is to destroy the economy being held up by the remaining few buisnesses. They take an oath of loyalty to the Constitution and set out to shred it. What a crying shame.

Snowe better start believing in poll numbers as the vast majority of Americans do not want government run health care and will be out for vengeance come election day if it is shoved down their throats by Congress.

She’s going to be around when history writes the sequel to her actions.

I’ve heard that Maine has an unusually high % of socialized medicine supporters because most of the populated areas lie close to the Canadian border, and they are always driving over there to get cheap subsidized meds.
