I don’t understand why DENTAL CARE is even part of the conversation. The benefit is NOT currently offered anyway...it has to be purchased PRIVATELY.

Every employer I have had in the last 50 years has provided dental care insurance.

Didn’t LBJ want to give away free dentures as part of the Great Society program? I remember my parents making fun of him for some speech he gave where he pulled his lips back with his fingers to show America what wonderful teeth he was going to give them.

Bo just said you can by into a high risk pool if you have pre-existing conditions. Which there are already Ins. companies for pre-existing.

Bo says not sustainable...not enough people..dealing with older people...too expensive...use as stop gap measure until everybody is in .

Yep...employers do....but the government programs don’t...so sob stories about dental issues is a mute point unless dental coverage is going to be part of Obamacare?

Denture discrimination! Minorities and women suffering from lack of dental care!
