Health Care Survey....sigh

Rate: 5 Flag

This survey came to me via the web and my conservative representative Duncan Hunter.  I just had to sigh at all the twist and turns he put me thru as I answered the survey.  I kind of like the idea of allowing insurance to be sold over state lines?  But that is probably a bad thing since it is a repub idea.  See how jaded I am.  sigh....

I took the Survey. It's so stupid. "Should be forced" hah! You got to give to these guys, they really know how to structure a question to someone not paying attention to get the answer they want. idiots~

Interesting, thanks for sharing this. As Care Reform gathers momentum, it'll be hugely popular. Social Security was contested in the 1930s. People got used to it!

Glad you all had the same feeling I did doing this survey. And the abortion question. Geez.

This is a fascinating survey, especially in its hard-spin use of the word "force." Duncan must be getting contributions from Americans for a More Effective Insurance Lobby. I have a special circular file for surveys like this. Thanks for sharing this, though. I'll refer to it whenever I write about push-polling.

P.S.: Do you believe government bureaucrats should FORCE us to breathe oxygen?

Thanks for the info. Ask your Congressman if he prefers a private insurance company with admin costs of 30% to make his health treatment decisions for him. It happens to millions everyday in America.
If we had a single payer system... you would choose your doctor and he/she would decide what treatment you got....
We will eventually get there but with elected officials like him it slows down the progress....

Bless you. I don't get these anymore since I started my "Reply All" technique. This one is fairly benign as the email circulation goes.

I still don't understand why the healthcare of a nation's citizens is a political issue or debate. To me, it is a moral, humanitarian issue.
