    Seriously you think you have it bad but youve got nothing to complain about compared to what out government expects us to swallow,

    We've got NAMA and the lisbon treaty to put up with,

    NAMA-the government in the space of a minute has just doubled our national debt in buying all the banks toxic debt and the irish tax payer is expected to pay for it,i think its 67billion(67,000,000,000) to be paid for by 4 million people,we havent had a choice,the government just wishes it so.

    Lisbon treaty-the greatest snow job ever,we are damned if we do and we are damned if we dont.

    Only 1% of polititions are said to understand both NAMA and the lisbon treaty yet we we are going headlong into both.

    Well, I wish the Europeans might have a reverse Marshall plan for Obama to help pay for all his socialist Obamacare if it is such a good deal. Any takers?

    Meanwhile, 85% of Americans are happy with their medical plan/insurance!

    So why the big rush to "reform" (read control) health care by the federal government? Why not focus on just the 15% who are LEGAL residents and help them? Well, they (the Obamabots) need to unionize the medical workforce for their union supporters. And they want everyone to suffer 'EQUALLY" under a government run nightmare.

    Of course, there are so many versions of this reform, that the real nature is obscured. But in reading one version of a democrat's version there were 84 "requires" the citizen to obey. This version was only 200 pages.

    BTW, this "reform" has not received any formal Congressional hearings; they have to try to pass such a bill before people caught on! If they are in such a rush, why does the law only take effect until a year AFTER the next Presidential election! So no one would know if it was working until BO ran for Prez a second time (shudder).

    And then only 33% of doctors support the Obamacare; up to 45% doctors would consider retirement or quitting if Obamacare is passed into law.

    I have a great idea: JUST DROP OBAMACARE into the wastebin! We really can't afford it anyway!

    (If BO had pushed this first, then paid off his union and financial cronies, he might have gotten way with running up the deficit by a factor of 4 or 5 and got the government to control healthcare (real shudder)!

    Next up for Obama: Gun control! Or maybe Cap and Trade?

    It's A No-Brainer

    So let me get this straight…
    This health care plan will be written by a committee whose head says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it and whose members will be exempt from it, signed by a president who smokes, funded by a treasury chief who did not pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, managed with the simplicity and efficiency of Medicare/Medicaid, at nearly the cost of the military, and financed by a country that is dead broke…
    What could possibly go wrong?

    What I find odd is that I keep seeing people quoting statistics about the number of people who support/oppose it or the way it will turn the US into Cuba but never with any kind of evidence from either side.

    Tex, where are those statistics coming from? The same place as your 50million who are currently without doctors?

    .....How do you feel after you've gone to the DMV or the Post Office? Have you ever dealt with the IRS at all?

    When I have to deal with the DMV once every 4 or 5 years it always amazes me how bad of an experience it is. It is the most unorganized cluster &%!# I have ever seen. The Post Office is not far behind, they will let 20 people stand in line before they will call another person to man a window. Don't even get me started on the IRS......

    So to answer a question posed a few posts back about reasons why I am against this socialized health care...these are the reasons why.

    Of course if you ask Jimmy Carter why I feel the way I do he will tell you I am a racist......
