If there are no healthy workers left in America you will have no choice but to hire illegal aliens and buy everything from Wal-Mart.
Do you really want to see your country in that sad of shape?
What happens when there is no middle class?
What side of the line will you fall on when all we have is super-rich people who live for hundreds of years and poverty-stricken drug-addicted people that walk the streets like zombies?
If you look around, you can already see it happening in the major cities...
(Yes, it's an exaggeration, but it might only be another 10 years away at this rate...)

Mary C - nice canned answer to a question I didn't ask...
I have eyes - I don't need your links to the warped media.

People tell me to get a job... well, I work (probably harder than most prep-school brats) and I don't get any kind of welfare... and I can't afford health insurance.
So there.
Maybe I should just die?

I think rich people do want health care reform. That's all.

I can't say I don't like the idea of you just going and dying but that's not the question. If you can't afford health care get a better job. Of course since you seem to be able to afford a computer and internet service then perhaps you should rethink your budget. After all which is more important your health or your ability to look stupid on YA? So that's 15-40 dollars a month right there, then you can drop cable for broadcast tv that will save you another 10-100 dollars a month and voila health care is entering the picture as a possibility.
It's all about taking responsibility for yourself although I doubt you will be able to wrap your little mind around that. I never agreed to take on you or any other persons welfare and will continue to fight having a bill that is not mine. Just because you are too lazy, too ignorant or just too pathetic to find a better way doesn't mean anyone else should be burdened with the responsibility for you.
If it weren't for the glut of people (read criminal trash) that are willing to work for peanuts with no benefits then there wouldn't be this issue. If a company doesn't have to spend money on it's employees it is certainly not going to.

So you think the entire country is going to develop horrible debilitating diseases in the next 10 years, eh? What are you basing that on....probably the media since they love to create crisis out of everything.
Basic health care is available to everyone TODAY. It's when you start defining what is basic versus what people think they have a right to expect from the nanny state, that differences start to arise.
I don't believe anyone...including the rich...denies that health care reform is needed. Just don't lump that into universal health care. There's a big difference between the two.
Edit: Ahhh, now we are getting to the heart of your question. You don't have health insurance...and can't afford it. Maybe that's true, but also (as is often the case) maybe you can't afford it because of other priorities that you choose above it. Do you have a TV, a cell phone, an ipod, how often do you go out at night, etc.? Those are choices you made OVER health insurance.
That being said, you might not realize there are options for individuals. You might check out this website for starters: http://www.healthinsurancefinders.com/individual-health-insurance-plans.html

The New York Times and Clinton News Network are your Bible, why wouldn't you follow the links.
Oh yeah, I forgot, you know what you FEEL, forget the facts.
Nice post Mary C

I think Obama hit the nail on the head when he called Hillery on that insurance for folks making $92,000. He said that was in the top 5%, so why should they get it and us poor folks not get it. Take care.

what makes you think that people who who work hard, go to college, get good jobs, and become successful should have to support dropouts, drug addicts, illegals, and others just because we had ambitions to do something with our life. Want insurance? GET A JOB AND PAY FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
