This is just one bad apple from a barrel of good ones. That health care plan WAS needed! One example is the decision to ban MDI inhalers. Appx 5% of all asthmatic people cannot use the new inhalers. They cannot afford or have been denied specialized health care and alternative methods are not covered by insurance and are too costly to pay cash for. I know because I am part of the 5%. Alternative health care would cost me a min of $750 a month. The new healthcare plan would have helped me pay for services that could save my life. Instead everyone is turning their heads away to see the bad apples not the people it could actually help!

Please show me where in the Constitution it says I owe you healthcare. I must have missed that.

Who banned “MDI Inhalers”, so that you have to use new ones? Explain a little better, for those of us who do not know all the latest info about asthmatics.

Ah, banning the freon-based, pressurized MDI’s was environmentalism stupidity run amok, but do tell me, why 5% of asthmatics can’t use the new HFA MDI’s or the dry-powder inhalers. But blame the environmentalists and DuPont big business types for banning those products.
