Healthcare reform-Do we really want the government screwing this up too?

Also, these claims that Obama is ruining our country came from when he was in office for 2 weeks, my friend still thinks Obama caused the recession, o, yea, and he is on welfare and wic, and has no insurance, yet he still hates obama, all of these haters sound pretty much alike

if people would stop watching fox and reciting everything they say on that channel then i think that we would get along, damn near all of the haters say the same exact things that fox news says. to the tee, do you guys not realize that?

The same could be said about libbies and MSNBC or NPR. It's called partisan bickering. It's as old as politics itself. I don't want government control of healthcare. Does that make me a hater? No, it makes me a concerned citizen who has experienced what govt. run healthcare is going to be like and I'm concerned. You can't have it both ways. Free healthcare isn't free. It's not even going to be cheap. Sounds like an oxymoron? We are being told that this healthcare reform will solve most of our problems and there won't be any downside. I'm a bit older and I've been around long enough to realize a few truths; There are always unintended consequences. Politicians lie. Power corrupts. Govt. is seldom the solution and is usually the problem.

I'm awe struck by how many freedom loving people, stoners, who want to see govt. become even bigger and more powerful while at the same time they bitch about federal marijuana laws. The writing is on the wall. One only needs to read it. This isn't going to be a good thing. It will grow our govt. to an unprecedented size. They will have an enormous amount of power which will be easily abused. The constitutionality is being challenged by a large number of states. I could go on and on but I'm sure none of what I write will make a difference, so..................
