Nobody is forcing them to take the coverage. They can continue to have private insurance if they want. Sorry, I can't see that it's going to cost as much as people are saying.

I've listened to people bi*ch about the NCLB act, yet tonight it was on the news that math scores are higher than they have ever been. Do you really think that happened all by itself? We had a problem with teachers not teaching, now they have to in order to pass the tests. That's a good use of money to my mind, especially since we are going to be in competition with both the Indians and the Chinese. We either teach our kids math, or teach them to be servants.

I never mentioned the NCLB act - what are you referring to?
