If the Gov’t can FORCE us to buy Medical Insurance, which they own.

How long will it be before they FORCE us to buy Gov’t owned automobiles?

This is so new, I was lucky #13!

It is worded so there are going to be two places to vote each way.

Therefor it is possible to skew the results any way you want. You can report what you want and leave the others out!

Professionally written!

Looking good. The "no" vote has it!

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

I was thinking similar thing. I was driving and saw a Caddilac, and it looked so good. But I then thought, what a shame, you would have to be forced to buy one now.

You know profits are no longer a concern, they have the Kenyan propping them up. If profits aren't a concern, then there is no concerns, such as quality. It will go down.

I suspect all federal vehicles (FBI, Treasury, etc..) will be GM.

You miss my point.

If the bill passes Congress, we will face a choice to buy the US Gov’t Medical Insurance, or pay a fine and/or go to jail.

How long before you are similarily ordered to buy a GM vehicle, or pay a fine and/or go to jail?

Quality, price and competiviness have nothing to do with it; just as they have nothing to do with the US Gov’t Medical Insurance bill. It is extortion, plain and simple.

When the “others” are alerted to the poll, it will change.

Report of the poll will use the lower % to compare with the best one in support of the programs.

Divide the support...then report!

Vote the lower number...it will cause them to have less support to report.

They have chosen 2 options we could choose...divide before reporting!

I can’t get past the company firewall. Can someone in New Jersey vote for me?

I hear in New Jersey you can go into a Government office, get a stack of ballots, vote them, and bring them back to be counted (ACORN enabled voting pushed through by Corzine).
