Pre-existing conditions will be illegal! This is what health care reform is all about -- Period!

Who in their right mind thinks the insurance companies care about you when you get sick? Who loves paying insurance demons? When it comes time for health care, it's not the government that rations health care, it is being rationed right now by insurance companies. They tell the doctors what they will allow, not some government bureaucrat!

I knew an insurance agent who struggled with cancer while his private insurance ran out and then turned to the Veterans Administration and milked the system for over $2 million even when the outcome was not going to be good.

Personally I could not believe the irony of his situation. The insurance man held down with a boot to the neck by his own insurance health care.

I have always wanted to ask -- where were the Republicans when you needed affordable health care? They voted against Social Security and Medicare. Most Republicans don't give a damn as long as the premiums get paid and you stay well (they get fatter and fatter) on insurance dollars.

Will it be too late for you when some dread disease comes along? Most don't realize until it's too late, "they" will limit your treatment and cancel you just like everyone else.

Thank God for the VAMC.
