Latest job figures show joblessness for young black males matches and in some parts of the country tops the unemployment rate at the height of the 1930s Great Depression. The Congressional Black Caucus demanded that Obama specifically shell out more: money and formulate more programs to help the black jobless and to aid cash strapped minority broadcasters and minority businesses. The Caucus lightly saber rattled Obama with the threat of delaying or even opposing: hi plan if he didn’t p buck Obama on the vote is taken as: it.

According to the New York Times: Under the agreement, people ages ‘55 to 64 could “buy in” to Medicare. And a federal agency, the Office of Personnel Management, would negotiate with insurance companies to offer national health benefit plans, similar to those offered to federal employees, including members of Congress, If these private plans did not meet certain goals for making affordable coverage available to all Americans, Senate Democratic aides said, then'the government itself would offer a new insurance plan, somewhat like the “public option” in the bill Mr. Reid unveiled three weeks ago. According to the Washington Post, negotiations for an alternative to the public option Would also. Place strict new regulations on health care companies, forcing them to spend 90 cents of every dollar collected on providing medical care-for their customers.
