I don't know of a single poll, apart from heavy Republican districts, who are against health care reform. Lying straight faced is Republican strong suit. At least once it is bothched, like GM and GMAC, we can say we told you so. But unfortunately reversing such a trend, hard to do. Government gets a taste of all that money is going to be hard to reverse. |

Please show me where in the legislation from either House or Senate that proposes "nationalizing" the healthcare. You can't because that's just a fear-based line of bs from the far right. He who controls the money controls the business. If the money goes to the government, and government decides service levels and the take, are you sure you will be happy? As I said, you can't because it doesn't exist. -- Nom=de=Plume |

And ramming through a "healthcare reform" bill in a short time in the back room and then voting on it less than 3 days later, leads to those ****ED UP laws that the unintended consequences are worse than the cure. The Feds should be working on creating sustainable jobs, cutting spending and curing a depression first. |

Don't you think keeping people solvent who might otherwise be swamped by medical costs is a good investment? Perhaps it's not the first consideration in getting us back on our economic feet but it's up there. Did President Bush focus only on invading Iraq or was he also working on making the Chinese-funded tax cuts for US rich permanent? |
