I've said this once before, and I'll say this again. There shouldn't be a cap off. There should be one simple number for everyone, a percentage. Just for a simple example, lets say we'll make 10% of everyone's income go to taxes. It's simple, and it's fair. So the more income, the more you get taxed, but you're still getting more in net pay.

I know in theory this would work, but in reality well who the hell knows?

Prohibiting private insurers from denying coverage or refusing claims based on pre-existening conditions, extending Medicaid eligibility to millions of other people who otherwise could not afford a private insurer, providing incentives for businesses to offer health care coverage to employees, and countless other positive things. By shooting this down, those who are neoconservative Republicans or affiliated with them show that they value their damn wealth over everything else, even those who truly need medical coverage to help them cover the costs for debilitating diseases that they otherwise could not afford. And who suffers from the most from such diseases or conditions? Those who are poor or middle class. Just look at that and tell me that neoconservatives aren't only holding the middle and poor class hostage, but also are working to destroy it. If it's a return to the 1880s you want, then by all means, support neocons.

These things (according to those that appose national health care) would absolutely destroy (corporate) America and make people that work in the health care industry unemployed.

I can't see how that will happen since more people will be getting health care and thus making the industry more active which would mean more workers would be needed.

It's more of a case that those people that are against the health care bill (wrongfully) believe what corporate health care providers (sic) are telling them.

I think if those people understood how many services they get (courtesy of every tax payer) such as the fire dept. public library, public education, law enforcement, public roads - can all be seen as "socialists" ideas or programs and those services haven't made our country a "socialist nation" nor brought about communism.

Just my two cents though.
