...for the righties who oppose the so-called public option:

Which of you will be or are depending upon Medicare or the VA or similar
publicly funded programs to pay for your health care after retirement?

Those on Medicare paid in a lot of money during their working years. If
they had put money into an tax free plan, they could afford most any
insurance plan on the market. That approx 3% of every earned income dollar
adds up to a lot of dollars.

gee....what would have happened to all that money in the last 2 years
under our free market system?

hmmm...let me think...

Well, my money is still up a lot over the last 10 years. Even with the
downturn.
