Romneycare meets Hillarycare

[<1/1,000,000th%]

I believe that Obama wants to cover pets and insects in the home as well.

[Harry Wurzbach]

Time to drive a stake through the heart of this idea. Yikes.

McCain needs to start talking about policies at the same time as he starts to do the attacks.

RE: “Time to drive a stake through the heart of this idea. Yikes.”

EXACTLY!!! This would never, ever work. Absolutely no way in h*ll should a plan like this go forward.

“My plan begins by covering every American.”

Another Freddie Mac in the making.

Obama to kids

Hey, if you make it out of the womb alive, you’ve got health coverage!

[spectre]

My heathcare is just fine, thank you very much Obama. Don't screw it up!

Open up free clinics for the people who are uninsured. Tell the "Illegals" to go back to Mexico cuz we don't take care of illegals who squat in our country looking for free hand-outs!

Start there and shut up!

Obama Healthcare = Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac style healthcare.

[Mr. K]

"“If you already have health insurance, the only thing that is going to change for you under this plan is the amount of money you will spend on premiums,” Obama said in a video posted on the Web site. “That will be less than you are spending now.” "

It's nice that he can know that better than the insurance companies

[ari-freedom]

that’s what mccain should compare it to.

[j_k_l]

Call it what it is...

The Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac'ing of Health Care

[renosathug]

0bama is just talking out of his ass. He has no GOOD plans and the plans he does have are modeled after other socialist states’ plans.

[johnny7]

Looks like we’ll finally get that spitball military that Zell Miller talked about.

[Boagenes]

We're in an economic meltdown, the scale of which no one can even predict but which experts are saying may rival the Great Depression, and this jack ass wants to create a trillions-of-dollars government program boondoggle that will reduce health care in the United States to the level of Cuba.

How the American people could even dream of voting for such a naive, inept, ignorant ass clown as Obambi just beggars belief.

Beat me by 39 seconds. ;-)

Serious questions:

When exactly did it become common wisdom to take it as a given that the government should pay for our health care --- what date exactly?

It wasn't always that way. How did the population manage to increase from 151 million in 1950 to 203 million in 1970 while families were taking care of their own health bills?

Let's talk about how that affects the cost in a minute...
