    Now if only the fat kid was a racist you'd have Tampon's life story to a tee!..Just like Obama.

    These people have the same problems with the "healthcare bill" that I do. It does nothing to lower costs, for one. Second, you can't re-engineer this much of our nation's economy without years of research, study, experiements, and knowledge. This is being shoved down the throats of the American people, and that's not American. It's happening too fast, and people are rightfully nervous about that. Also, Obama has done a terrible job of articulating what he wants, and Nancy Pelosi spends far too much time looking for a "demon" in all this. The American people don't need or want 1/6 of our economy turned upside down because of anger, which is exactly what Pelosi is projecting. Most Americans aren't so stupid that they don't want careful, well planned out, non-emotional decisions made, especially with something this important and this costly.

    Exactly. Where is the tort reform to remove frivolous lawsuits against Doctors and hospitals? Oh, that's right, the REAL plan is to make everyone go on to the government plan and then there is no suing the government--even if there is a legit reason!

    Second, you can't re-engineer this much of our nation's economy without years of research, study, experiements, and knowledge.
    But
    they, the "Progressives", have been trying to do this for decades. The research, studies, experiments have just been done in other "failed" countries and with that classroom knowledge the "progressives" have discovered that the only reason those systems failed was because these Progressives were not in charge. Under the Progressive's--Marxism, socialism will not fail....(yeah, right).

    This is being shoved down the throats of the American people, and that's not American.
    It's not meant to be. That's just the point.

    It's happening too fast, and people are rightfully nervous about that. Also, Obama has done a terrible job of articulating what he wants
    Oh, I think he has articulated what he wants very well... a single payer government plan. What he hasn't articulated well is his cover story to hide what he really wants.

    , and Nancy Pelosi spends far too much time looking for a "demon" in all this.
    That's just Nancy's standard operating procedure.

    The American people don't need or want 1/6 of our economy turned upside down because of anger, which is exactly what Pelosi is projecting.
    Again, more of Nancy's SOP of getting mad when we all don't just do as she wants us to do.

    Most Americans aren't so stupid that they don't want careful, well planned out, non-emotional decisions made, especially with something this important and this costly.
    But we elected Obama and now they know that we are too stupid... at least that is their premise.

"I want people to take thought about their condition and to recognize that the maintenance of a free society is a very difficult and complicated thing and it requires a self-denying ordinance of the most extreme kind. It requires a willingness to put up with temporary evil on the basis of the subtle and sophisticated understanding that if you step in to do something about them, you not only may make them worse, but you will spread your tentacle and get bad results elsewhere."

    Evidently we are beholden to the government, not the other way around.

    Third, this will NOT cover about 20-25 million of the uninsured anyway. But, it would cover illegals on our dime.

    The reason it has not been done before is for the very reasons you site. The government is not willing to put in the effort, research, focus groups and town halls to actually do this the right way.

    And there is that too!

    The reason is that health care is NOT a crisis in the first place. Does it need fixing? Yes, but not to the extent being proposed. Instead, they are doing the old marketing technique of selling the idea of the product to the people first and then worry about producing the product. Notice how not a single person KNOWS the details of the ObamaCare bills?
