ParticipantHmmm, I have heard about the under 80K and legal/not-legal rules. (I have also read that it would be paid for by a substantial increase on tobacco.) But I had no idea it was for 29 and under! I’m really hoping this is incorrect. Plenty of people have children of their own by the time they are 29 so we are covering entire families now, not just children under SCHIP? No wonder Bush vetoed this. I’m still not clear on whether it’s the “child” who has to make under 80K or the parent when we are talking about “children” who are really adults (over 18). I guess if you are under 30 and smoke you are partially paying for your health plan. It’s just one step closer to universal healthcare.

ParticipantIsn’t that another form of bail-out for private enterprises?
I think that corporate executives figured they can off-load health care expenses onto the government. Great for the car makers.
What does it matter if they are citizens or not? If they are residents in USA, we want them to be healthy.
I support universal health car with rationing. Something like no more than $5,000 per person, per year, adjusted for inflation. You have to buy additional coverage if you need it.

ParticipantLike I said, I just wanted clarification because I was not clear on the facts and still am not. The quites around child was facetious. All I ask is that if you are gonna stick it to me give me a reach around as well. Don’t call it a child health care reform. Call it a young adult (citizen or non citizen) health care bill.
Anyways perhaps someone will post the true facts about the program. It should sail through now.
