This means they don't know what is it in either, but they lie and make people think they do or 3. the news. Maybe they know, maybe they don't, but most of them don't really take a stance on it.

So if you have gotten your information from any of these groups how do you know it is accurate? Maybe Pelosi is right. maybe it will reduce the deficit, lower healthcare costs and help poor and uninsured get covered and it really isn't a government takeover of health care nor is it a money grab for the insurance companies.

First off, unless anyone read it completely on here, then this logic applies to everybody, including you. Secondly, I have read the most important parts that I think would have the most impact on this country. If we're talking about the current bill, it WILL help the poor and uninsured get covered, it WON'T lower healthcare costs nor reduce the deficits, and I'm still unclear as to the last one. It appears that it does help insurance companies out, especially regarding premiums. The government takeover doesn't take full effect until the public option becomes available.
