debate, and passage. This is absolutely unprecedented and a travesty.
Even the most die-hard supporter of socialized medicine ought to get
the fact that Pelosi has ripped up the Constitution and is making
things up as she goes along. To use this kind of trick to attempt to
take over 1/6 of the US economy is nothing short of stalinist and
dictatorial.

Considering the current administration, this surprises you?


The problem is that as knowledge increases, so do the costs, especially
if you want to remain at the cutting edge of healthcare possibilities.
The system in the US has made it just frigginf expensive to do the
research needed, and of course big pharma is out for profits. Doctors
too work hard (most of the ones I know do) and do want to get
compensated, as do the nurses, lab techs and housekeepers. And I don't
blame any but the most greedy ones of any of those groups.

The trick you refer to is as I seem to recall one that is long on the
books, and just now again dusted off to use to the majority's advantage.
Blame the founding fathers for not being more explicit.

I am much more concerned about misinformation being distributed. And I
am especially ticked off with the hypocrisy regarding abortion. I would
fervently hope that no one ever feels the need to have one, but if the
need arises (for whatever reason) it should be available, safe and
probably covered by insurance. I would rather have happy, wanted
children than beaten and abused children. You make your own decisions
and I will respect yours, whatever you decide. Same about end of life
care - your decision. Please write your living will NOW!
