Political Quotes

“A recent letter I received: I am writing this letter in regards to the new ``affordable'' healthcare. My husband and I are small business owners with two other employees. We purchase our insurance as individual insurance, and we received a letter this past week that our rates are changing. We currently have a $5,000 deductible with a monthly premium of $415, and on the new plan, if we stay with the current company, it is going to be $4,000 with a monthly premium of $1,093.78. I have tried to access the www.healthcare.gov Web site, and have been able to register an account but have not been able to get any type of pricing. I have contacted both of my Illinois Senators and my House Representative and have been told that they are not in favor of a government shutdown, but I am here to say if a shutdown is what it takes to get people to listen, then shut down. The reason I am contacting you is because my Congressmen are not willing to stand up to the President, and I just want to say good job for standing your ground. ____________________”
