Boy, Lieberman, Dodd, Delauro, Courtney, Larsen, Murphy and Himes really sold us out cheap. Connecticut could have gotten millions of dollars and help put the rest of the country into more debt if they only played the game right. But no! Our senators and representatives only want to play nice with their bosses in Washington, so for the people of Connecticut; In the words of that great entrepreneur Willy Wonka: "You get nothing! You lose! Good day, Sir!"

I read that Harry Reid is so worried about the next election he got a deal for the state of Nevada for medicare which the rest of us will be paying for 5 years. I also read a while ago the same with New York and I think California but not 100% on that. Can anyone confirm?

This bill creates an incentive for Connecticut to pay everyone over the age of 65 to relocate in VT. I watched a reading of this bill. Half an our to detail healthcare to people withconditions tied to environmental clean up sites. All those "Mesothelioma' commercials you see on tv. Trial lawyers have seen to it their clients get all the hospital care they need. Another half hour to detail medical malpractice cases for those lawyer clients. I suggest every american find an old piece of asbestos to hide away, well wrapped in duck tape of course, and move it into your basement fully exposed if you ever get seriously ill. The only way to assure you get the best treatment care from hospitals in this new healthcare system is if you can claim exposure to hazardous materials. L awyers need to be able to feed off your sickness or you will just be a burden to the system.
