would the co-op system work for health care?ritics say the needs are too big or what works in rural farmland could not possibly be copied in a big city. support here and in other cities think co-ops could solve a big chunk of the affordability problem. in our "american dispatch" this week we wanted to take a closer look, we headed to waterloo, wisconsin, and a dairy farm where co-ops are a big part of the family business. 280 cows here, each eats about 100 pounds of feed a day. three milking cycles, not to mention tending to the corn and other crops. a family farm is a long, hard day's work. with milk prices down, a profit is hard to come by, which makes bob taupel all the more grateful for his invisible partner. >> fertilizer, feed, everything we buy is pretty much through a cooperative. woe we market our milk through a cooperative. if there is profit made the profit is returned to the owners, the more you use the cooperatives, the more earnings you get back. co-ops have been around for over 100 years in agriculture. >> reporte

will co-op solve that? no. that's according to two folks that run co-ops. one in seattle and one in minneapolis who i was on the phone with earlier. will this help? they said no. we're not charities. you have to spend money. you have to pay premiums to join our co-ops and we don't take everyone. we do say no to some people with pre-existing conditions. now, one of them said our prices are middle of the road. we're average price for premiums about what other people's premiums are. >> what's the point? >> according to these co-ops, the point is that co-ops create good competition. the co-ops manage to deliver high quality health care at a lower price because they don't have to make huge profits and put money back into the company. what one person told me is, look, we bring down the price of health care in general so more people can afford it. for example, in seattle where they have a prominent co-op, health care is less expensive and more efficient than in other parts of the country and some would say a big reason why is because they have that co-op there. it

we think of a co-op as an agricultural banking co-op, and under the baucus draft, co-op is government sponsored, government subsidized and eventually government-run and it is really the public option in disguise. >> eric: bottom line, you think they'll get something passed? >> they could muscle a big bill through the house, a trillion-dollar bill, they'll have a tough time in the senate. my guess is, they launch the nuclear weapon in this battle, reconciliation, so they can get a bill through the senate with just 51 votes. >> eric: that means, a yes. representative mark kirk running for the senate next week. >> thanks for having me. >> jamie: we have been showing you all weekend long how tens of thousands of protesters packed the national mall in washington and the tea party express, ending the national tour yesterday. in our nation's capital, and several other cities across the country. these demonstrators didn't show up to meet celebrities or didn't show up for a concert. they showed up because they say they are fed up with the government that has grown too fat, too big, and too out

now, patients and co-ops run the board.ld elections, discuss issues, concerns and under this bill taxpayers would contribute up to $6 billion to co-ops for start-up costs. it's estimated that opens could cover 12 million people. heidi. >> how would life change for people in a co-op? not everybody is in favor of this. >> for patients, co-ops work like private insurance. there are premiums and most see doctors in a network. health care would be cheaper than private insurance but not necessarily always less expensive. it depends on the competition in your market. group health cooperative in washington state, that's the last surviving co-op, it's become kind of a prototype for the senator's plan. while premiums increase at a slower rate compared to competitors you would have to agree 12.3% annual is pretty high. one of the highest hurdles to starting a co-op is creating a large network of doctors so. the doctor you are used to seeing may be not part of the network. if this becomes law most provisions won't take effect until 201

caller: yes, the whole co-op is just like medicaid. for anyone who has ever tried to apply for medicaid, it is terrible. you have to fill up all these documents. you give them every detail about your life, all of your banking. two or three times per year. half the time you have a deadline to turn this in. when you turn it in half the time they lose it. the misplaced it. -- they misplaced it. i would rather die than have to be on a public option or to go on medicaid. it is that bad. host: guestnext is chris from nw york city. caller: good morning. two points very quick. i am so disappointed with max baucus. i do not trust him. $3 million for the insurance industry for his campaign? there is no way that i trust this guy. secondly, i'm so disappointed. i love my senator, senator schumer. i'm so disappointed with the democrats. the bottom line is that we put them into power. democrats, independents, and some republicans -- we put them into power and we want our agenda done. they are offering everything to the republicans. these are just pe

this bill has instead a proposal to establish co-ops and to assist organizations in establishing co-ops that would sell health care insurance in competition with private companies. now, i think a public option would be better, but you could get to much the same result through the co-op effort, if that's what winds up being adopted by the congress. i know there's also a thought on the part of some. i think senator snowe has talked about having a backup for a public option in the sense of if, by a certain date, health care coverage has not expanded and people have not been able to obtain affordable coverage, then there would be a public entity established that would go ahead and sell insurance in a way that would make it affordable. tavis: there are some that -- notwithstanding the point you made a moment ago, there are some who do not believe that co-ops are -- my phrase here -- a good stand-in, a good replacement, an option for the public option as it's been discussed. but tell me that you believe that what's going to ultimately pass is going to have some means in it for everyday people

. >> i want to talk about co-ops.rice tag, the president said any plan would have to not impact the federal deficit. can that possibly be true? we already have critics out saying no way. >> well, we are going to raise taxes to pay for this under the bill. the taxes would go, taxes and fees would go to different industry groups within the health care industry, so pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, hospitals, all would pay new taxes and fees to finance this thing. the $856 billion number is the amount of government outlays that would be incorporated into this plan, but what both baucus and obama are saying is that it would be deficit neutral, net-net it costs the taxpayers nothing to do this, because of those fees, and also because of savings, they say, they can find in the current system. there's a lot of waste, fraud and abuse, for example. there's a lot of economies of scale they can get so they say they're going to save money and cost you nothing to do this. >> right, i guess the devil will be in the det

if we go up herexd --çó?e and much more solid. on the one hand, you do not make as much money as a contractor. ñrÑpibut there will be less fluctuation, west volatility in those boom sectors. it looks like the economy is on a more permanent growth trend and it does not react on a short-term basis to those kinds of fluctuation. i could walk through those other sectors. if you have specific questions on the relationship to oil prices, we can take them up in the question and answer time. the black line is the government spending. it looks essentially the same. government spending has traced oil prices. current spending and capital spending. the physical aspects. that has really collapsedÑi aftr the mid 1980's because the government did not have money anymore to pay for infrastructure. have money anymore to pay for infrastructure because they had so many salaries to pay through its current spending budget. so that was the first eye ball test showing that it seems that the structure of the saudi economy and saudi b

co-ops could be of value over time. but what we need is a public option that's available the day the exchange goes into effect so that that is one of the options. if we depend on co-ops, right now there are less than 10 in the country. i really know of he only one that's totally successful. and that took more than 10 years to come up -- get up and running. it's not impossible. it could happen. that should not be what we consider a public option. it can be an option of -- at another time. mr. ellison: if the gentlelady would yield. i think you're right. it's not an inherently bad idea but it's bad for this. i want to be very clear, we are not -- and i are not loosening up and opened to co-ops. we are clear that a co-op is a wrong thing. here's one reason why. the congressional budget office , nonpartisan, they report that on senator baucus' bill, the proposed co-ops have very little effect on the estimates of total enrollment in the exchanges or federal cost because as they are described in the specifications, they seem

we do that by not allowing for co-payments in that regard, we need to cap those situations with that could be catastrophic by making certain that no more than $5,000 in individual or $10,000 per family, some reasonable measure, be there to restrict the payments that are demanded because so many families face bankruptcy. i know that if our health care measure were approved as represented before the house here, some 1,200 families in my congressional district alone would escape the woes of bankruptcy because of medical expenses. these are issues that face america each and every day, the business community has been paying stiffly for this sort of lack of reform, some 40% of our business community is reported spending more than 10% of their payroll on health care costs. . that's a pattern that's growing worse with time. our seniors have been treated unfairly with concepts like a medicare part d doughnut hole. situations that find them in a very few weeks into any calendar year paying dearly for pharmaceutical needs that are life and death choice for them. they shouldn't limit or fraction
