Shepard Smith went crazy and off script! Check this out...

Both Shepard Smith and Chris Wallace are real reporters. Most everybody judges Fox News by the "commentator" shows which are very conservative based. But Shepard does the main newscast everyday at FNC and he's always reported the news fairly. And Chris Wallace's Sunday show doesn't show any bias either.
Remember Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck are for entertainment and ratings (and they get them too)...but Smith and Wallace are good news reporters. I saw Shepard go off like that as well during Katrina.-Robbie

I don't understand, I know we should be helping these people out, but why are we even debating this, if they were firemen and police officers in New York, they had great benifits and insurance of huge amounts like all union people in New York, what's not getting covered?Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants

Jon Stewart kicks ass, and you can probably thank him for that "explosion" on Fox.

it's be real if they say 9/11 was INSIDE JOBComment

Not all of them were public servants. Also many of them have been turned away by the city and have been told they have no way of knowing if these illnesses are based on something that happened at ground zero.There are also a lot of fireman and aid workers that came in from all over the nation to help with the search.Comment

I questioned if responders had health insurance and coverage, most firefighters do, Cops do, don't they? Please answer!
Health care reform is necessary, but not one that over 200 employers and unions have been allowed to opt out of because they can't afford it
Where did I say anything about it's their fault?

I understand that, I just want to know why the ones that came from else where aren't covered by their insurance. If the ones that are from the city is covered, then that should be paid for right?
The ones that have health problems from other states, their health coverage is denied because they went to another state to help?
I just want to know who's not getting covered and why?
Now the ones that don't have any coverage, I'm all for them getting coverage and healthcare, but how many of them are there?Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff.

It is our responsibility to make sure those that risked their lives to save others get taken care of, you know I'm a veteran and I believe we should look after those that are deserving, but if they are covered by health insurance because of their jobs as firemen and police and other aid workers, that shouldn't have anything to do with making anyone bankrupt, it should already be covered by insurance and taxpayers shouldn't be paying for what the insurance companies are suppose to cover.Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff.

Here is one quote from an article that sites a 60 minutes piece. "On Thursday, the Bush administration promised that 9/11 health programs, including the one at Mount Sinai, will get $75 million in funding by the end of the month. But doctors say 40 percent of the workers don't have health insurance, so more money is probably needed. "
Now this is just one group of people being monitored by one hospital so I'm sure it doesn't mean that all 9/11 responders are in this situation.
Here is another about a cop :"Officer Christopher Hynes, 36. In March 2004 he was diagnosed as having sarcoidosis. However, the NYPD has refused to bestow line-of-duty injury status to him." Without the line-of-duty status he is having trouble getting the medical bills paid for because there seems to be some treatments the are not covered by his insurance.
It seems like a bigger problem is that many of these people were forced out of their jobs because they were no longer able to do them. So they no longer have health insurance, but are sick. Others have been dropped by their health insurance which happens all the time. If you get a long term illness, they cut you off. Still others have health insurance, but can't work and have no money to live on.Comment

Wow, thanks. I never would have guessed that.
It is called Workmen's Comp. Have you ever dealt with it? It sucks. It is nothing more than a bandaid.
#1. The $7.4 billion cost of the legislation over 10 years is paid for by a provision that would prevent foreign multinational corporations from using tax havens to avoid taxes on U.S. income.
#2. You have to be severely fucked up to be eligible.
#3. It passed the House and the Senate has the votes but the Republicans are blocking the vote with a filibuster.
#4. These people are DYING.
#5. When it became a work comp issue they lost their jobs, thus their health insurance lapsed.
#6. They may be getting permanent disability from WC, but that does not cover the expense of dying from cancer.Last edited by baddog; 12-18-2010, 02:04 PM.Comment

The amendment to the bill's original language now provides that any person who has settled a civil litigation claim that was commenced after December 22, 2003 and settled and released all claims before the final enactment of the Zadroga bill will be permitted to file a claim for benefits under the Zadroga billCarbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff.

his bill is designed to improve health services and provide financial compensation for 9/11 first responders who were exposed to dangerous toxins and are now sick as a result. It would establish a federal program to provide medical monitoring and treatment for first responders, provide initial health screenings for people who were in the area at the time of the attack and may be at risk, and reopen the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund to provide compensation for losses and harm as an alternative to the current litigation system.Comment

That's not it.
I have a problem with any legislation that doesn't get full support from both sides, that means theirs something wrong with it. I don't want to see another law passed or bill approved thats badly written.
This bill says anyone that has filed a claim and file one against this bill, thats not right

I don't care much for Fox, but I do like Sheppard Smith.
Regarding the Zadroga Bill, I am 100% for it. First responders have a duty to respond to any situation. Not do a risk assessment before they decide to show.
I don't know anything about specifics of the health care insurance of New York, but health care plans generally have caps, and if you have anything seriously wrong with you, you can hit that cap pretty fast.
When you get the insurance, a million dollar cap seems like a lot, but when my wife had a serious condition, we hit that cap within 47 days.Comment

See this is what I was asking, they have insurance, is it not paying for everything?
I've had some great insurance in my life, mostly while being in a union. I would like to know more about why the insurance is not paying for these problems and putting it off on the taxpayers. As for the bill, pass it, we need to take care of our own. But insurance companies for firefighters and Cops and aid workers should be better
Now if we can stop support of all these foreign nations that don't like usCarbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff.

Many of these people have lost their jobs due to the illnesses they have gotten. With that loss they have lost their health insurance or the quality of their insurnace has been greatly reduced. They are on disability/workman's comp which doesn't want to cover them. that is part of the reason why this is happening. Did you see what I posted earlier. The 60 minutes piece that that a hospital is working with and tracking a large number of first responders and that about 40% of them don't have health insurance.
Also there are many republicans not supporting the bill because they signed the letter to oppose any legislation until they got the tax cut bill taken care of. A few republicans have even said they would like to look at it, but they can't because that it the position they have taken. Maybe now that the tax bill is done they will let it be brought back to the floor.Comment

Fighting the wrong side of the arguments. You should not need health insurance to get health care.
Should these people be helped? Hell yeah. Where is the fund being collected for their health care, Ill gladly put down a handful of cash. I don't need the government to make me do what is right, do you?

The ONLY thing the Republicunts have against it is that the Democrats are for it. Kind of like you, apparently. Name one thing wrong with the bill.
So, you ignored everything I already pointed out except #2. Well done.Comment

The bill is a bail out of the city unions.
They will bring up a new bill next month without the union bail outs and with some changes and it will pass then.
Also, the average settlement was 1.2 million and they agreed not to ask for more money from the Gov't or insurance companies. They signed the contract and took the money and now want to take more money.
There's also 60,000 claims and 4.3 billion won't go that far.

Everyone thinks there insurance is great until they end up with some type of serious chronic condition or something that costs major bucks. Insurance companies don't care who you are they will pull the rug out from under you if it means better profits, just like any corporation. Not to mention that even if they keep paying sometimes just the out of pocket stuff can bankrupt you.

good to know about ShepardComment

funny how no one commented on this so far, love these one sided arguments.
EEveryone thinks it's just a simple deal of giving healthcare to some dying first responders... it isn't, that's just the spin on it to demonize anyone who won't vote for it.
All of you go read the legislation as proposed and get back to the thread, it's filled with bullshit.
