Health Care Push Hurting the President’s Popularity?

Polls are fickle….Obama is doing the right thing on healthcare and the economy. The problem is America, as always, is impatient….Also, it would be interesting to note that while Obama’s popularity may have sagged a bit Republicans have made zero progress in increasing their popularity..

down with obama because it will bankrupt the usa

This multi National President is turning this country into a Socialistic State. His shooting from the hip will NOT CUT IT. If he stayed in DC where he should be instead of flying all over the country and world (how much has that cost the tax payers)and listened to the common people we might be in better shape than we are now. Who is he to tell the CEO of a major corporation to step down?
Federally funded health care is SOCIALISM no matter which way we look at it.

First of all, the grammar in your article needs correction: Bush was not a president of the 70s. Second, ABC is always spinning Obama positively unlike former President Bush – what happened to equal treatment? When the news media take sides, who loses? The citizens of the “United States of America.” Please, tell the WHOLE TRUTH, nothing but the truth, so help you, God! (It’s unlikely you will get a good sampling of truth if you only poll those who voted for the liberal ticket – as we all know, Washington Post and ABC News have a liberal agenda).

Most people that cry socialism don;t know the first thing about what socialism really is. Most that cry changing healthcare will make us go broke are fear mongering, unintelligent republicans who fear Obama suceeding at making healthcare work for everyome.

Press on with your health-care initiatives, President Obama! Is in not a bit strange–there’s always health-benefit funds readily available for all military families–i.e., member of their family in active service; life-time health benefits for all branches of the government–civil service,retired military, etc. — all paid by the US tax payer. But health benefits too expensive for the average tax payer.

If you have no health care you have no wealth. Health represents wealth-without it you are already dead. You cannot create wealth and help your fellow man because when you are sick all you do is think about your pain/ and fear whats going to happen in days ahead. There should be basic health care to all us citizens. Even if it is 2 free visits per year which includes reduced cost of medication for some.After that charge clients based on their income or other factors(like smokers,non smokers etc.) In this country we do not think ALL US citizens are important. Other countries think differently. Are we the Land of the free and the home of the brave or are we democrats,repulicans,rich,poor ,necessary or unnessary citizens.

What’s the rush?
If Pres. Obama’s Plan is so good let the American public have the details!
Not sound bits.
Have every Congressional Representative and Senator sign-off that they have read the complete Bill and then have them explain to us the pros and cons. In other words ask them to do their homework and the job we sent them to Washington for.
What are the real costs?
Where in the world is there an example of a similar plans success?
And a thousand other questions should be answered before we make a change of this magnitude.
God Bless America and guide us in these times.

It amazes me how many people comment on health care as if they’re experts when it’s obvious they haven’t bothered to learn that even the insurance companies say the present system is unsustainable and the only foreign system they know of is Canada – and all they know are the alleged “waits” some people experience, with no clue about the waits in America: I waited three months in Maryland for rotator cuff surgery. Do your research people! Be able to quote dollar costs, etc.

I am flippin mad at this administration. Every answer to every problem is more and bigger government programs. The Federal government is the worst run “company” in the country. What business can honestly say they can reconstruct themselves by piling up the biggest deficits in history? I work very hard and every year my benefits, and pay get cut a little more while the illegals and welfare recipiants get a free ride. When Congress puts themselves off of their own exclusive health plan, then we might really be getting somewhere. Are there any true Americans left who can see we are losing the great country we love? Honestly, most people only care now about American Idol or Dancing with the Stars. I honestly believe the USA will cease to exist in the near future with leadership like we have.

In response to indy_voter:
“All he is trying to do is put the private insurance companies out of business and make everyone dependant on the government.”
Obama is going to force private insurance companies to be more competitive, thus provide the American people with less expensive health care and more options.

He is the president. Also those CEO’s were using the country’s borrowed money for selfish expenditures. Federally funded health care would be socialism if it were the only option, however it’s not.

In response to ddg:
“What’s the rush?”
That’s an absurd question. Health care is one of the largest problems with the American system and you want this issue delayed? Obama is rushing them, however he did extend the time to sign off and left it open for change to make sure it is done and done correctly.

In response to Slow Down:
“Taking benefits from sick and disable people in order to reform health care for the rest of the people and balance the government budget I don’t know how it is help to anyone.”
It is those exact people he wants to help. More importantly, the majority of American SHOULD be helped first, doesn’t that just flat out make sense?
—————————————
Health Care is broken. America’s health care is by far one of the lowest. How ridiculous is that? President Obama needs to carry out long term projects that will help America succeed forever, not just now. If he submits to the naysayers who haven’t even researched as heavily as his team has, then it will drive this country into more turmoil then it already is in.
