  1. Kimmel has no idea what he's talking about, as usual.

  2. Mr. Dick , He's making statements about this new healthcare bill that he couldn't possibly know. And other statements that are completely false. Did you watch this video or do you just have a problem understanding English? His recent statements are just as bad as his statements about his own son's health issues. What kind of person would politicize and lie about their newborn child's healthcare issues!?? Kimmel is a complete hack and only morons would believe he knows what he's talking about.

  3. Mr. Dick , The first and last statement are completely false or misleading. Your first statement: Most of the people who would "lose coverage" are ones who choose to do so. Without the Government mandating coverage, a lot of people will choose to not be covered. These are people who are in good health and mostly young people who don't see the need to spend money on healthcare coverage. Doesn't matter if you believe they are foolish or not. It should be their decision. Anytime the government "mandates" how a person spends their income, it's bordering and totalitarianism. I'm not sure on the money the first healthcare plan saved the U.S. taxpayer, so I'll concede that point. You're last statement is completely false. There has never been a healthcare bill voted on that did not include "preexisting" conditions.

  4. Mr. Dick , Now...why in the world would you think Kimmel would know more about healthcare than a doctor?

  5. Mr. Dick , Under this new plan, which isn't going to pass, States would be given a basic set of parameters to start with. If the chose to change something , they would have to submit it to the government to get approval. Obamacare is dead. Premiums started rising almost as soon as it was implemented. About a year later, some healthcare providers stopped accepting it because they were losing money. Then some insurance companies stopped offering health insurance in some counties and states, because they were losing money. Some even stopped offering health insurance completely. Premiums have risen as much as 300% in some states a recent report claims. At this point, anything would be better than Obamacare. I personally would like to see our pre-obamacare healthcare system, with some modifications, back in place. Anytime the government gets involved with a private industry, it's going to be a disaster. All these kids who want single payer healthcare are nuts. Look at the VA. I can tell you first hand that the VA sucks and that is what single payer would be for all Americans.
