Thirty-five years ago, our first child was born in a hospital. We had no insurance, cost us around $800.

We have the highest GDP for healthcare is going up quickly. In 2008, total national health expenditures were expected to rise 6.9 percent -- two times the rate of inflation. Total spending was $2.4 TRILLION in 2007, or $7900 per person. Total health care spending represented 17 percent of the gross domestic product.

U.S. health care spending is expected to increase at similar levels for the next decade reaching $4.3 TRILLION in 2017, or 20 percent of GDP.

I'd hazard to say something needs to be down.

Thanks for your response, the numbers should scare a conservative to death !!

The question is why don't the 45 mill have insurance--Illegals--smurphs (who don't want it) and Da Base (muff and crew).

--and didn't I hear someone say didn't you listen to Gumby today--
Yep --but turned it off when I caught him blantantly lying about AARP supporting his plan

--and turned it off the 2nd time when some little girl (was reading) spontaneous question off piece of paper--later discovered to be plant.

however Muff and crew ate it up and were chanting "yes we can" following his speech in celebration below--

attorneys are the cause, doctors have to pay ridiculous mal-practice insurance, who do they pass the cost to? you the consumer, there is your fix, limit what you can sue for if things don't go your way. tort reform is the answer my friends
