Hooray for Stupak & Waxman. Though I don’t always agree with Waxman, I certainly do here.

Health care companies have been dropping coverage for higher-cost groups routinely for over 20 years. When I was in Medical School, our school’s coverage was changed every year. Apparently too many Med students were going to the doctor and actually using the insurance, which prevented Med student insurance premiums from going 100% into health insurers’ profits.

This is why we need a “public option, which–as currently written in HR 3200–doesn’t cost taxpayers a penny. It’s 100% enrollee funded.

Small businesses are suffering only because of the giant corporations taking advantages of lobbying interests in D.C. of which Waxman may be a profiteer of.
