    cap, yup! But it is kinda funny that republicans are for an independent population, yet embrace prohibitively expensive health insurance….Republicans have no choice but to do what the insurance companies want them to do……especially after the millions of dollars insurance companies have spent buying the dudes………….BTW, they also have no choice when it comes to oil, too. They have to vote against the American people because of the money they receive from the oil lobby.

    I am of the firm belief that we need equal national health care for all. Reports I have read suggest that with what we spend now…. and with the roughly ~45% of that money simply going to pay the “middlemen”…. (mostly the insurance companies, but also the huge number of folks who most medical agencies have to utilize to handle all the myriad of different insurance plans),,, we WOULD be able to have universal care for all. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++A person’s job, nor his hourly wage, nor the “benevolence” of his employer should be what determines how his health is treated. It is just as ludicrous as suggesting that how much you earn, your job, or your employer has a right to say how much air you can breath.

    Under the “Affordable Health Care Act” only those with no insurance at all will be required to purchase health care from an independent insurance company (not from the Gov.). And of those many would receive a subsidy. Everyone with current ins. through their employer or otherwise, would not be affected whatsoever. The analogy to the gov. forcing everyone to “buy a Chevy Volt” is false.

    She should go for the government job that pays the most.

    I know I’m the millionth person to hopelessly wish political comics would stay on the editorial page and I shouldn’t bother mentioning it, but yeah, dammit, I’m mentioning it. sigh

    Funny you should mention that, Sharuniboy – I’ve been trying to tell colleagues that if the Supreme Court strikes Obama care down, there goes mandatory auto insurance, and a whole lot of jobs with it. I don’t think too many people have connected the dots.
