Teamsters for Healthcare Reform Now | International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT)

I can I trust the Teamsters anymore, when their putting out this kind of crap.

I'm not saying some sort of Health Care reform isn't needed. But Obama's plan is just horrible. Of course Obama wouldn't know. He hasn't even read the bill he's pushing.

But the Teamsters are backing up the lie that 47 million Americas don't have Health Insurance. That number is bogus to begin with. But that number is what started this whole Health Care reform push.

If the Teamsters are going to push for something, they need to check their facts first.

OK, I'll bite how do you know Obama didn't read this bill of reform he is pushing and why not debate that reason instead of putting down the Teamsters Union?

Anyone can claim to be a Teamster on this forum. doesn't make it so...................

And apparently nearly no congressman has even read the 1018 page House Bill.

And why not debate? Well first of all, I'm not against a debate. But the Teamsters should know the facts first. All this health care stuff started with that number of 47 million uninsured. If the Teamsters can't even tell the truth about, how do we know what they are telling the truth on? not to mention their backing a socialist policy. Pure and simple.

Whatever, how about you debate the issue. Remember when you put this 47 million out a while back Steward? I gave you the real details of this number. And you called my breakdown B.S. Do you still think my breakdown is B.S.?

Here's the truth about that bogus number.

Uninsured who are NOT U.S. CITIZENS - 45% of the 47 million. First Lie!!!!

Broken down by age, 18 - 24 years old - 29.3% of the 47 million. They think their invincible. I did at that age too.

25 - 35 years old - 26.9% of the 47 million.

Broken down by salary, $75,000 or more per year - 8.5% of the 47 million. They can afford to buy some sort of insurance, but CHOOSE not to.

I notice that in refering to the Teamsters, you sound as if you are not a member of this Union. Just by the way this post is stated, it seems to make you ill at the very mention of the word Teamster. But to make statements about (apparently no one of our congressional leaders) being aware of this bills content is an assumption on your part as stated in your post. Spin as you may it will not change the truth, which is written in stone.
