[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 349770, member: 7083"] Terry, there isn't a government plan and a private plan. There is no public option. Either your employer provides insurance, you are on medicare or on medicaid, or you buy your own plan through whichever insurance company you choose. There will be caps on premiums and there will be federal subsidies for those that can't afford to purchase health insurance. This might be helpful. [URL]http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2010/mar/18/top-10-facts-know-about-health-care-reform/[/URL] I would like to say that this issue has divided our country and not brought out the best in people. Regardless of how we label ourselves, we are all American. We must work together, not against each other and find mutual ground. I have watched too many friends' posts on FB deteriorate where the debate was no longer debate, but hateful, hurtful, spiteful, words and name calling. It saddens me deeply. We are better than that. Or we should be. Off my soapbox. [/QUOTE]
