[quote=Anonymous]Blame it on insurance companies and LOBBYISTS for insurance companies.  Someone is getting their pockets lined, and it is not mid-class America.  We have the poor taken care of through medicare and medicaid, and the rich taken care of through "concierge" (whatever) - what about the rest of us?!?!?!  The majority, with seemingly no voice.  'Tis a damn shame.  No wonder we are falling behind.  We can't even take care of our own.

Insurance companies price everyone OUT of insurance, for the companies own beneift and convenience.  Regular families can barely afford the premiums, and they say there are preexisting conditions when there are none.  We live in Washington D.C. and NO ONE is doing anything about this?  There is no one that works on the hill here?  Hullo?

I don't believe doctors are to blame, because they have to make a living too.  They don't go through almost ten years of schooling to not repay their loans (although they have the highest default rate, but that's another show, people).

It is clear that the insurance companies are getting rich off you and me and something needs to be done.  Anyone?  Suggestions?  Where to start?  I am sick and overwhelmed, so it seems too much for me, but I am willing to send emails.  Really, let's have DCUM be productive for once.  We should not be sacrificing our children's college fund for health care.  Something is wrong here.

[If you  have decent insurance, or someone (job) is paying it for you, be grateful.  I have actually heard about someone complaining about what their dental (!) coverage failed to cover, when I was shocked that anyone has dental insurance!  I am not talking about the spoiled and/or clueless, I am talking about everyday people here.]  [/quote]
