...health Care reform.? How come they did not show the same concern when they were spending one $trillion in the war in Iraq. Billion for war is ok but not for health care for the American people.
It seems they've got plenty of money when it comes to earmarks, pork, or killing people in wars but when it comes to the average joe citizen getting help with health insurance, it's sorry Charlie. By the way, 60% of all bankruptcies filed are due to medical bills. And most of those are WITH insurance.
The war in Iraq cost an estimated $750 billion over the last 6 years. the cost to overhaul national health care is estimated to be well over $1 trillion. And that's just to start it. This does NOT include annual costs associated with it. Add this to the TRILLIONS that Obama is already spending on bailouts and stimulus plans, and hopefully it will start to make a little more sense to you.
