[quote=flstf;2770585]I think rahl was referring to the fact that everyone currently insured or paying for healthcare are paying for the uninsured via higher prices charged by hospitals, etc.. and therefore higher premiums charged by insurance companies.

Yes, that was exactly what I was talking about.

It'll eventually divide the insurance between very basic care and premium care, thus dividing the classes by who can afford what.

Say what you want.... but when the very people passing it don't like it, saying they will fix it in reconciliation, they didn't truly debate it they made promises, backroom deals and so on to get enough votes to pass it AND they exempt themselves.....it's a slam dunk the bill is bad.
So you are going off on an emotional tirade and can't name a single thing wrong with the bill itself?
