We don’t need this, but the collective American people want it if they think they can get something out of it for themselves.

Everytime the Federal Government tries this stuff...The burden eventually goes to the State or to folks carrying private insurance...while the Fed is still collecting the money.

Medicare is a good example. I'm now on Medicare. Little did I know years ago that even though they have accumulated my "pool money", I would still be paying premiums to the Feds out of my SS check......AND buying additional insurance.

Interesting analyis by O’Reilly last night on the widely trumpeted NYT “poll” showing Americans “strongly support” health care “reform”, in particular the so-called “public option”. A majority supported raising taxes (on the “rich”) to do this. Among the 500 or so that were polled, 48% were self-reported Obama voters, 26% GOP voters. Skewed? Ya’ think?

Call everyone in DC and tell them what you think of their wanting the power over your life and death. Yes, it’s that important.

BTW, Feinstein’s staff is surly, rude, and have an attitude. They were elected to represent the American people. Now, they think they RULE the American people. Vote Them Out.

The fact is the government needs it! Federal - State - City governments use a pay as you go health care retirement; where they pay retiree’s health care from current revenues. The sky rocketing health care costs are bankrupting government. They do not want to admit to the taxpayers that they did not save for their retirees healthcare so they tell us they want everyone to have healthcare.
