Because Howard Dean said this is an insurance bill that does more harm and good and he who wrote the book on revamping health care and said all this bill is, is a sell out and windfall social welfare package for the insurance industries.

The insurance companies still get to take 30% off the top for nothing. Germany and other countries keep the overhead down to around 10%. Medicare is 4%. Some Insurance CEO's get 20 million a year. In Germany no CEO gets more than a million.

All because a couple of people in bed with the insurance agencies e.g. Bacaus, Landreau, Nelson and Lieberman forced us to take a shitty bill that doesn't even deal well with the pre existing conditions (they have to pay 3x' as much) no real oversight and abortion rights reduced (Nelson).

No one in the country knows more about the healthcare reform than Dr Howard Dean. He wrote a book on it. He Arianna Huffington and many other reputable people said to go to reconciliation.

As Dr. Nancey said this morning: "we are being held hostage."
