Washington (CNN) - A majority of Americans have a dim view of the
sweeping health care bill passed by the House, saying it gives
Washington too much clout and won't do much to reduce their own health
care costs or federal deficits, according to a new poll released Monday.

That means the bill is very good. The way politics work is that "Nobody
won".

Look it up!

This bill will help my family considerably. *My %^$%#^%$ insurance
company already has been raising my rates constantly, and trying to
give us the runaround. *This thing, as odd as it is, will make a
difference in several important salient health-related details, cost
not being a big deal among them.

Get back to us when your rates go down.

This is something you don't seem to understand.

Rates WON'T go down under any scenario as long as they include private
insurance companies. Ever. Period, Therefore, I readily admit that
my rates won't go down in the foreseeable future. With or without
this bill. Period. In fact, they will continue to rise either way,
as they have been for decades.

So, if you care ONLY about cost for those who have *existing*
insurance, then I agree - this bill does not do it. Nor will anything
else short of a major overhaul of regulation.

However, for those of who place value on something other than coin,
this bill does a lot, and there are parts of it that are beneficial to
me and my family in ways that you apparently are unable to
understand. You're just going to have to accept that fact. Or not,
but you ignore the benefits to others at your own risk.

And for chrissakes, stop being an anonymous, name-calling, cowardly
bully. It does nothing for your credibility. Name calling and
insults does not = facts or rationality.
