Be very careful about listening to all of the supposed that people that know about health care. There is a ton of misinformation going on and frankly the bills have not made it out of many committees yet. There's going to be reconciliation and other things to come.
The rumors about older Americans being denied care and the American healthcare system been socialized are bunch of hot air. Typical fear mongering. I was speaking to a lady today who is so frightened that the American healthcare system is being socialized that she doesn't know what she's going to do. Then she informs me that her children are insured under Florida's healthy child program. You should've seen her face when I told her that that is a socialized health care system set up by the state of Florida. It truly amazes me how many people think the government can't run a health care system, but then admit that the military has pretty good healthcare, the VA, and even the federal employee health insurance program is good. If you know you're getting information from a liberal source, then you can look for that type of bias. If it's from a conservative source, then you can look for that type of bias. It is difficult to find independent research out there. Many tout themselves as independent, but are financed by one side or the other. Good luck finding the information you desire.
