But anyway, I guess your support can now be counted on when the next step is attempted for a single payer system. Since we're already in Seattle, presumably if the option is status quo or switch to socialism (which is what it'll be) you'lll be supporting the switch. |
Just out of curiosity- do the people who are not for this bill resent having to subsidize the healthcare systems of the military? If not- why?

If only there were some sort of document, respected by all of our lawmakers limiting .......sigh. |

But since the reality of the world is not a free market I see no reason why the military shouldn't have insurance paid for by the people who they work for......just as in most other businesses. |

The free market is what created the medical insurance industry*.
*some non-free market forces are what propelled it rapidly into entrenchment, but it came to be of its own free will. |

Ok, I am bowing out of this discussion........a few final thoughts:
1) It's not as bad as many on the right have been saying........yet. 2) I am not "outraged" at the Dems or Obama. I think it was a mistake to pass this bill for a whole host of reasons chief of which is I am for free markets and this is not free. 3) I hope it works. And if it doesn't I hope enough Dems have the character to recognize it's failings and dump it rather than try to fix it with endless buckets of money. |
