Why?
The Dems and Returds will have to justify their own positions. This
will happen at the polls Tom.
As for Dubya, he's gone and he's got his own lock on excellent
health-care.
The rest of us, including you, have to live with the carnage and
bellyaching
about that won't solve a thing.

Healthcare needs reform, don't trust Democrats to do it. It's
simple, cap "pain and suffering" and other litigation reform
especially malpractice and defensive medicine, standardize insurance
forms, prevent premature release from hospitals, legislate
portability and eliminate "preexisting condition problems, eliminate
"emergency room" as primary by extending Medicare/Medicaid net for
the poor.

The Democrats' need to stifle discussion and demand a timetable that
sounds like a bad used car sales pitch and I wonder why they are
exempt.


The current "healthcare" mess was caused by government intrusion in
the first place.

With a true Free Market, the health insurance companies would be
competing the way the car insurance companies are now.


That's one of the most ignorant things I've ever seen.
Car insurance is MANDATED by most States you dumb ass.
The "Libertarian" version of this would actually be fair. You'd buy
insurance if you had assets and were collectable.
Otherwise, you just wouldn't.
I like it!

Actually that is what happens now, unless you have massive assets and self
insure. No assets? Just because it is against the law, there is no
penalty. They take away your POS vehicle license plates. It's not worth
the yearly insurance premium. When I got hit in Mississippi years ago, they
said I was lucky. Only 30% of the vehicle had insurance. I happened to get
hit in the rear by one of those while I was stopped making a turn.
