So that I may read that section for myself.. where exactly in the bill does it say this? I haven't seen it... and I would like to check it out for myself. What section/page ? If you don't mind.
I don't take YOUR word or anyones word for it that there is language like that in it until I see it with my own eyes.
BTW.. I agree .. if this is INDEED in the bill.. that does need to be fixed, amended.
Oh it's not in the healthcare bill up for debate. It has already been approved and a done deal..they get 12 years exclusive sales in the US.
"Lawmakers who count pharmaceutical companies among their biggest contributors lead the opposition to a health care proposal that would cut costs by allowing generic drugs to compete sooner with pricey biotechnology drugs, campaign-finance records show.
This month, the Senate health committee approved 12 years of exclusivity in a measure authored by Hatch and Sens. Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., and Kay Hagan, D-N.C"

It will disgust you more if you read the entire article about how much money these people have received from big pharma and their denial of how it influences them
Not for First Class mail TM - there is NO OTHER OPTION for 1st class mail
LOL. okay.. um.. well you can send somethng "ground" "overnight" or "2 day" via the competition...
It's all really a matter of when things get there..
PO also has size limits to certain countries and even within the U.S .. Private doesn't.. so they offer a service the Post Office doesn't.
First class.. to me, is the equivelant of ground via UPS or fed ex... in terms of time.
I do prefer the post office and use them A LOT for my business. They are actually EASIER to file claims with when/if something gets damaged.. and I hardly have a damage problem with the post office.. not so true with UPS or Fed Ex.. they deny EVERYTHING. .it's a nightmare.

I'm not surprised.. I know our government is bought and paid for by the highest bidder.
But you are ready to trust them to be in total charge of our health care ? LOL
OUTSTANDING point!!!
