Welcome To Joe Lieberman’s Health Care Plan – It’s As Ugly as Him, But Maybe With Age … ?

Thanks to Senator Joe Lieberman and other conservatives without conscience (Also known as right-wing authoritarians and tea baggers), we have a health care bill that is more to the liking of health insurance companies than to the majority of Americans.

This minority has ‘had their way’ with the majority and they could care less about those other Americans not like them, but not all is lost:

  • There will still be Americans dying from lack of health care, but not as many.
  • There will still be Americans who are denied health care, but maybe fewer.
  • There will still be Americans who declare bankruptcy because of health care costs, but maybe fewer.
  • Our lives and health will still be subjugated to insurance company profits which are not limited by true compitition, but more of us may be covered.

And, according to Bob Cesca, ” the Senate bill will reduce the cost of insurance for a family of four earning $54,000 from around $19,000 per year to around $9,000 per year.” Ten thousand in savings is almost a 20 percent discount.

Remember the CWC goal is to stop this bill. We cannot help them met their goal.

We should accept what the CWCs have created, but it must be called the Joe Lieberman Health Care Plan. Then Joe can be blamed when things go wrong and have to be fixed.
