Well if the Republicans want a fair bill they should insist that Congress be included. It is the only way that we can be sure it won't screw us.

Both sides are lying through their teeth or worse yet they don't even know what is in the Bill. Dems lie about being able to keep your current insurance if you like it. The catch is if anything about your plan changes such as co-pay, or coverage, or Doctors included or cost, even if the changes are ok with you you must go into a government approved plan.

On this issue of end of life I have learned that the right wing is dead wrong. I thought that since this claim was made by an alleged health care expert and she actually referred to the page no. I thought she must be telling the truth.

However when I found the bill on line and read the section she referred to is not mandatory. It just says that Medicare will cover a consultation with a doctor every 5 years regarding end of life options. Not in those exact words but that is the gist of it.

So my conditions are that Congress must be included and that any public option not be subsidized by those who have insurance.
