Republicans it is time to think about the people.
My daughter and her husband and their two month old baby live on less than $1100 per month and they make too much to qualify for Medicaid or anything else and they cannot afford insurance coverage...What are they supposed to do for insurance coverage...if they have insurance they do not have food-I guarantee you that NOONE is Washington could live on that little amount for a week let alone a whole month!!! What are people like them supposed to do???
Watching 360 Live Now. You say I don't see an alternative to Obama care. Show me another solution that provides health care. I really wish folks would stop referring to Obama care as providing health care. It's not. It making it mandatory that people purchase health insurance. A real solution, and a great idea – take away the medical device tax and all the other funky taxes rolled up in the Obama care. Make one semi-small tax that EVERYONE pays. Monies collected from that tax go into an interest gaining account. That money is then used to purchase hundreds of thousands or millions of low cost reasonable policies for the people. Force the insurance companies to accept pre-existing an we're set.
It's making me sick hearing folks repeatedly saying "why would you deny the people affordable care". That's not the point. No body wants to deny anybody anything. We just don't want it pushed on us. I already can't afford it, now I'll be fined?
From the video of the women driving out-of-control around the Capitol, I cannot understand, nor have I heard anyone comment on why the police did not aim and shoot out the tires at the point they had the car surrounded. I have seen the CNN clip several times and the police are standing right there at the car but their guns are all aimed at the driver. Why did not one of them aim at the tires and disable the vehicle and save the ensuing chase and perhaps a death?
The Republican speaking points on the ACA are cynical and dishonest. The delay in the ER mandate was a response to legitimate logistical issues raised by ER groups that already provide access to health care. The exchanges are for those with nothing.
Stop, Please let me and the public know if the Federal workers Furloughed workers get un-employment during this shut down, if that is the case you must report this as well.. I feel for them all but want to know if they still get benefits during this???????????

I just saw your news report and it appears to me the cover up of death by cop has begun. I saw the earlier videos and it is obvious to me the woman feared the Police, as most blacks do, and the Washington Poliice did what so many Police forces do. That is to shoot first , make up stories, and demonize the victum. Now we have a child permanently effected and Police are now saying there was a questionable envelope at the woman's adode. I, for one do not believe that. This country has turned into a Police state and the hundreds of Police that showed up to accost the woman, in my my way of thinking , proves it. What an outrage.
I have been thinking that man killed by cops in fla was to redirect our attention from syria. It's all really sad.
The Obama Care common sense solution ... Give it a chance!!! ... If it works, keep it; if it doesn't, change it ... It's that simple.
Scary. . .I was standing right there facing the Capital; took a picture of a group furloughed like me 8 minutes before hearing the shots! Standing where helicopter from DC Police landed; was not sure if there were other shooters around! Again, scary!
the video shows there was ample time to shoot the tires and save the woman's life! the police did not act responsible
