This was pretty much what Karl Marx said, and what was motivation of tyrants like Bismarck and the Soviets who implemented nationalized health care long before the Euroweenies (by which I assume you mean the "democracies" of western Europe).
However, things may be a bit different in the United States, where we have much stronger traditions of individual liberty and where public disapproval of socialized medicine now is probably much greater percentagewise than it was in the various Euro nations when they inflicted these disasters upon themselvelves.
...all the dem congresscritters were almost certainly given elaborate promises ... that they will be set up for life as soon as they are booted by the voters next year. Cushy jobs in the 110 new healthcare bureaucracies and the Soros organizations as well as board positions in the newly government-acquired businesses.
We're only talking about maybe 50 "blue dog" 'Rats in the House and at most ten possible fence-sitters in the Senate. They could easily be accommodated by the existing Washington lobbying firms, which is where ex-congresscritters most often end up anyhow. So, contrary to popular belief, there isn't much of an employment problem for them once they leave. Plus, of course, they'll continue to have the same gold-plated health care plans that they have now while the rest of us are coerced into their monstrosity.
When we kick them out of office; take their pensions(they did ours); health care perks and other goodies; and bar them from participating in government period.
Arrest and indict Soros.
Whoops, and THANKS justiceseeker93, I was in the wrong tab. [blush]
