Well I listened to it, back-pedaling and more lies.
First time I've ever heard "boos" like that, ever.
Instead of "taxing the millionairs" it will now be self funded. (lie)
The persons who are supposidly in need of this "public offering" will be exempt. (so this will change what?) Small businesses (you know, the ones that currently don't offer ins.) will also be exempt. (again, so this changes what?)
Require pre-existing conditions? Well, I don't know about every state but in Florida employer-supplied insurance already has to have this, as well as since it's a "group" plan you can't be dropped. COBRA is rarely ever accepted by employees cause they get a look at how much this costs the employer and of course don't pay it (unless they have something pre-existing).
Not to mention when this "public offering" lights off every high-risk, pre-existing person in this country will jump on it. (Can you say in the red?)
Never heard of an "optional" government plan, maybe they could do this with Medicare and Social Security? (like that'll happen)
This fellow is either a bold face lier (he knows this can't work), or he reallly belives this B.S.
BTW what was those papers the Republicans kept waiving around during the speech???
