    You are a fucking libtard. Pay for your insurance like we do.

    Obamacare denied me a sleep study for sleep apnea. I literally stop breathing during sleep, but Obamacare knows better, thank you, now I pay full premium in United.

    "Compassion" ie acess for decent medical care in the case of a serious ilness is extended for wealthy, elite and important people...if you're sick and die because you're poor its just another statistic. Welcome to American capitalism folks...not going to be a different story when it comes to healthcare, wake up

    What exactly is compassionate about limiting choice and increasing premiums on people who can't afford it? I've been trying to figure that out for a few years now...

    Life is precious, we need just as much in preventive care as we do in treatments... So many reasons people are getting cancers and other very serious illnesses! We have got to have Heath care reform, but not the grab bag rip off our idiotic president tried to pull! I hope this woman can heal from her cancer, and I commend her for standing up. She had several very valid points.

    Funny to see this video regarding compassion and then comments from people who clearly lack that virtue.

    So are we begging for healthcare now?? is this is what it's all about? This is very shameful and too bad for United States such a country we call great, my question is what is so great about that?? Today the U.S. cant even come into terms to give Healthcare Care to the American Citizens that really needs it, i know i need it. Today we have other countries that have free college and free health care for their citizens

    I hope for the best with her treatments but any replacement bill wont have much impact on her if any.

    Compassion went out the door when my premium doubled and my deductible almost tripled.
