I want health care reform, too. I want Tort Reform so my doctor will treat me without fear of litigation.
I want to let the Free Market work so there is true competition and we can buy insurance across state lines, or fund it ourselves if we’re self-employed.
I want the government fraud, waste and abuse curtailed in the system we have now.
I have no problem subsidizing Grandma and Grandpa if they’re not covered under MediCare, et al. I have NO problem helping the mentally ill. I have some problems with druggies and boozers, but if we can save their lives and turn them around, so be it. I have NO problem funding vaccinations and exams for uninsured little kids.
I DO have a problem with giving benefits of ANY kind to illegals. And now we’re to have hundreds of thousand of Haitians coming ashore? Yeesh!
Until then? Any changes either side makes will only mean more pain in the pocketbook for ALL of us.
But nobody ever listens to me; especially my elected REPRESENTATIVES.

No one ever links the illegals to the high cost of medicine, education, high unemployment etc. I can’t figure that out. PC?
Maybe now that JD Hayworth is in the AZ race, some one will bring that to light.
Well put. We should all copy and paste to send to our Senators and Representatives. I am sick and tired of being accused of racism, homophobia, etc., simply because I follow the law (and expect others in this country to live within the law)and have standards.
Although ... I hate how the left uses wordplay and calls it health CARE reform. No, what we need is health insurance reform, implementing some of the points you mention (as well as eliminating mandates, etc.). Our health care is the best in the world, and there's no need to reform it.
But, of course, we know it's not about reform at all (that Alinsky code word), but about control.
