said their insurance rate went up three times. someone else was waiting for a cortisone shot for three days when their insurance policy company, they call could and like that they would get approval. max baucus said this is a train wreck. that s what we have. americans and the republicans have an alternative plan. we believe in a market-driven approach. we believe that we can have a plan that is between the patient and the physician. it is come pettive between companies across state lines. it does cover a risk pool for those with a pre-existing condition. at the same time, it addresses the unwarranted litigation by attorneys who seek to pursue this for their own interest. 30% of the tests performed by physicians today are done to protect themselves from litigation. we need a market-driven approach. a centralized planning has never worked. it s not working now. and that s why republicans will
that s right this country incarcerates a lot of people. who else is going to hire these excons, they can look at their background records, your bankruptcy timeing is off your record after a certain amount of years. these people never get jobs? isn t the prison supposed to be the punishment, not you can t get a job the rest of your life because you were in prison? who else is going to hire them? i say it s better than putting them in prison. also, is this the best way to get our data, if you were an excon, wouldn t you buy it from target hackers? why would you get a low paying job in wal-mart? is our insurance rate concerning excons, aren t they getting candy, they re getting social security numbers, so much financial information? exactly, you might as well run a list on craigs list saying free government money.
that ends up happening? i don t believe that the republicans shut down the government, even on crossfire earlier, newt was talking about harry reid and the president threatening to shut down the government over the sequester. that came out of the white house in july. july was when that first came out. obama care is a job killing program that we can t afford. we re $17 trillion in debt and now they re going to kick the can down the road and they re not going to do anything about it. it is not acceptable. and we cannot continue to function this way. amy, god bless you, didn t answer the question. this isn t a win. this shutdown wasn t about adjusting the reinsurance rate. and the shutdown was compelled by house republicans listening to the tea party, afraid of getting primaried from the right. they realized it was suicidal from the get go. so the result will be good for the country if we avoid this completely idiotic,

government down. one of the things that you hear from republicans is that look at the polls. our recent poll found 44% said obama care is a bad idea. just 31% say it s a good idea. so how do you counter their argument? look, you look at my state of new york, for example. already it showed that the affordable care act is bringing down premiums by 50%. you can go state by state and see how we re going to get a grasp on the affordable care act. when you look in it and see that children people parents can keep their children on their insurance rate, on their insurance plan until they re 26. when you look and see that in fact you can have a situation where individuals who may have had some kind of illness beforehand, that they now are still covered, there is no cap that you have on seniors with reference to prescription drugs, these are all things that the american people want. these are the things that is in the law, that we have passed and that will bow implemented on
