Ah, Politics. With Massachusetts electing a Republican to replace Ted Kennedy, they now have enough votes so that the Democrats can not steam roll them over with the proposed Health Care bill. So at this time, the poor soul that does not have an employer provide insurance or if he/she can not afford $500 or more a month for health insurance is still screwed. Who is the real winner of the health care debate debacle? The health insurance companies. Plain and simple, do you think that the insurance companies have not been spending billions to prevent or influence the health care plan? Bet your sweet bippy they have. And who is paying for their expenses? You are, the folks that have insurance. All that has happened so far with politicians getting involved in the health care parade is that a few political’s have thicker wallets (yes, some of that money that you are spending on health insurance is now in a politician’s campaign funds) and that some folks that can not afford health care have died. No, that is not an exaggeration. Folks are dieing while politicians and insurance companies get rich.
