wake up conservatives and especially republicans who are in a haze of false triumph since the election of scott brown.

government takeover of the healthcare market must be stopped or you add the heaviest shackle so far to your collection of them.

Hmmm.. Why are the Dems so damn persistent about passing this? PROGRESSIVISM.. One more step towards full Government control of every aspect of our lives. The Dems may win this one, but they’ll surely LOSE control of Congress later this year, and the White House in 2012. Jobs SHOULD BE the TOP PRIORITY, not health care. Furthermore, health care needs reform, not government takeover. Bye bye Dems in 2010.

Exactly and is exactly why we need to starve the brest of what it wants. We can no longer pay people to sit on their duff or offer unending unemployemnt to all. America is broke. It is going to hurt but in the long run it is the only way to save America.

there ARE NO benefits....at least scheduled until 2014(and IMHO..there NEVER will be any benefits whatsoever paid) ...this is a TAX BILL...(retroactive to January 01, 2010) and it is critical to the fall elections...without it...they haven’t the cash to put on the street for the balance of the “stimulus” packaged they need to GOTV with ACORN and SEIU

The tax revenue will be used to offset the massive deficit as a tactic to get Obama re-elected.

In reality, it will drive our economy further down into morass.

They want the money...And they’ll spend it all on payoffs...just like using SS and Medicare funds...use every dollar...every year!!

The answer is clear and no one is reporting it. The government needs the money.

You got it! And everybody will be in *the system*. Pay up, or go to jail.
