B/S. RomneyCare is big government forcing its will on a formerly free people. It’s anti-American, anti-free-markets, anti-Liberty and unconstitutional. Listen to the Reagan tape. RomneyCare is the socialism he’s talking about. RomneyCare = ObamaCare. No difference.
Government is not the solution, it IS the problem!!
Free Republic will not support gun grabbing, abortionist, gay rights pushing, big government socialist RINOS!!
In fact we will actively campaign AGAINST them!!
Take a freaking hike if you don’t like it.
Thank you, Jim.
After fleeing the place I have come to the conclusion that it would be better for the Republican Party if the Romney's had stayed in Mexico.
The point of RomneyCare — which was designed by the Heritage Foundation — was to prevent socialized medicine. It kept all insurance and provision of health care in the private sector, while trying to address the problem of “free riders,” the uninsured who showed up at hospitals, and left their bills for the taxpayers.
The most “anti-freedom” part of it is currently the mandate that everyone insure themselves. As originally proposed by Romney (and Heritage), there was no mandate. People could buy insurance or post a bond. The Mass legislature made it a mandate.
This is, I admit, more of an intrusion on freedom than the mandate that everyone have car insurance — which I think is a good idea — because you can choose not to have a car.
But we have a real, practical problem here. Hospitals cannot turn away the free riders. We end up paying their bills. Forcing them to pay their own bills is the “conservative” way. I ask this respectfully, can you think of a way to do that without some kind of mandate?
GOD bless you Jim... you are speaking truth to ignorance dude!

How many times have you stated this and similar sentiments today?
I'm certain that I've read these kind of postings from you several DOZENS of times over the past few days.
It's just incredibly sad to watch all this.
Just look at all the mittbots & mittites & mittwhits who are clining so bitterly to their fav RINO.
It's sad.
You gotta feel real sorry for people who have NO reading comprehension and who are downright RUDE, and have been for years.
If someone were to describe this scene to me, I wouldn't believe it, as I wouldn't believe it possible that so many NON-readers would join a political website to start with.
