Most People Want A Public Option

The public option in Obama's health care plan has been taking a beating recently. Some articles even say it might get cut out completely. Now, there is a new poll out showing a majority of people want a public option.

"A clear majority of Americans -- 72 percent -- support a government-sponsored health care plan to compete with private insurers, a new CBS News/New York Times poll finds."

The fight for the public health option is vital to the United States. Health care is a basic need/right. If not fixed, it will sink the economy and only separate the haves from the have nots more that it already is.

This can not be done in a bipartisan manner. Our dem leaders need to lead and to try and get both parties involved when the repubs don't want anything coming out of the Obama administration is insane.

This needs to be done. Just get it done.
