In America it is not about the party but who pays who to do their bidding. Max Baucus is a prime example of a Democrat on big insurance payroll. Corruption is universal in Congress but the voters keep sending the same pirates back year after year.I was a Republican at one time but got sick of their methods of lies and distortions and win at any cost http://re-electnoone.blogspot.com/2009/09/baucus-debacle-shows-why-democrats-have.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Re Elect No One)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-425873064660386547.post-5326958269399056614Thu, 17 Sep 2009 19:00:00 +00002009-09-17T12:00:02.626-07:00Baucus is trying his best to sell us out and make insurance companies richer than before."required" to buy insurance? I can't afford it now. His plan says that "affordable" plans can cost me ( age 63 ) five times more than average just because I am older. I also have a pre-existing condition. By law they can not refuse my insurance.­..provided I can afford the premium.

Max Baucus is well known to be a shill for the health care industry. Just check out his campaign donations from them.

It is fine for a doctor and a nurse etc. to make a profit providing health care. Insurance companies do not provide health care to anyone. The act as gate keepers to stand between you and your doctor in exchange for a 30% cut of the fees. Bill's point seems to be that certain things we need should not be contingent on how much money you have.
