Healthcare reform - Is it good for some or all

Healtcare Reform as our government is approaching it today is very one sided, and very poorly managed by the Congress and White House.

A few Basic points/questions -
1. Why would any elected official not read a bill before they vote for it? - very irresponsible
2. How can we have true Healthcare reform if we don't address one of the top cost drivers - Tort Reform
3. If this reform is so good, why doesn't the Congress add to the bill that the President and Congress will receive the same Healthcare as everyone else - no exceptions, no variance

I think everyone agrees that Healthcare reform is absolutely necessary, but not without careful and complete planning, focusing on the top issues, problems, cost drivers, and establishing intelligent methods to address each of these areas completely.

Anyone out there that thinks we need healthcare reform, but don't need the about questions answered, can you please explain why.

We vote for our Congressman and Women to represent us and our views, but if they don't read the bills they vote for how can they accomplish this.

This is neither a Democrat or Republican Issues, but one affecting both parties, and all others. We need to stop the partisan rhetoric and focus on the facts, with clear and honest information from our government. Please contact your congressman/women and aks them to answer these questions. If they can't them something underhanded is occuring and we all lose.

CONGRESS TO TAKE PAY CUT

It is appalling that all of these Automakers have private jets, and are asking for tax payer money. It is appalling that AIG paid bonuses after receiving tax payer money.

All kidding aside

What is truly APPALLING is that CONGRESS, who:
1. continue to give bailout money to these firms,
2. were FULLY AWARE of the fact that all businesses have corp jets,
3. 1 year ago new of theseAIG bonuses (if they didn't then they failed at their job and should "commit suicide" as Sen. Grassly says),
4. are possibly even a major part of the cause of this recession deregulating mortgages,

CONGRESS IS NOT MAKING A GESTURE, LIKE THE CEOS WHO WORK FOR $1.00, like those who should give back their bonuses, by not, I REPEAT, NOT GIVING THEMSELVEs A PAY INCREASE - DUHHHHHH. !!!!!!!!

HOW DENSE ARE ALL OF US OUT THERE??????????????? TO CONTINUE ALLOWING THIS.

Hey CONGRESS!!!
MAKE YOUR ACTIONS MATCH YOUR WORDS - CONGRESS TO TAKE 5% PAY CUT

OTHERWISE - PURE HYPOCRACY

Then we need a vote of no confidence

Read for yourselves exactly what they are doing
