[QUOTE="brett636, post: 564037, member: 249"] Cost and complexity do go hand in hand. Every agency that these healthcare decisions get routed through has to take something to cover their own costs. Maybe they have to hire extra help, install new computers, lease or buy more office space. All this increases costs with little to no benefit to the taxpayer. Our healthcare system needs to be fixed, but you don't fix a leak in the roof by blowing up the entire building. Lets be honest here, out of the 48 or so million Americans this is supposed to help only 8-10 million actually need the insurance. The rest comprise of illegal immigrants, people who already qualify for government assistance but do not either want to apply or know how to apply for it, and those that can afford health insurance but choose not to do so because they either don't want it or are between jobs and currently don't have it, but will so in the future. I am also one person with one vote, but the more people this issue gets discussed with is potentially more people calling the Congressional switchboard to tell their congress person to vote NO. BTW, if anyone is interested in calling their congress person the number is(and I am not kidding): 1-877-SOBuSOB Now get to calling! [/QUOTE]
