Good point. Expanding on that, what they want is "single payer" or
socialized, government controlled and owned medical system. This never
works, and is anti-American to the extreme. The US government is not to
be in the business of business. The socialist democrats have usurped GM
and Chrysler, about taken over the banking industry, education, public
transit, gambling, sports stadiums, in my state liquor stores and who
know what else.

Now they want the big enchilada, health care. People generally lose
more and more as big brother clenches his powerful, tyrannical jaws
around freedom.

Those who seek to control us are gaining ever more control. It goes
beyond politics, too. Reps put in the Patriot Acts. Dems grabbed GM,
mortgages, and some banks. Now Dems are after more of the treasury and
a life-or-death rebalancing. Scary times.
