EXACTLY BOB!! That’s why we have to stop with the “socialism” label and describe it for WHAT IT IS!

Then we can have a greater chance of blocking it. Right now people hear “socialism” and think “Europe doesn’t have it so bad” (even though we know they do). However to explain what fascism is and compare to this health insurance plan... we’ll have a greater chance of stopping it before it is entrenched.

I agree with you too but the simple minds of your next door neighbors will have trouble accepting and believing such a harsh reality. I made a living as a salesman... you never slam the idea immediately, if you do they will hear nothing... success comes from gently massaging the idea... in fact helping them come to their own conclusion... help them believe it was their analysis and their decision all the time.

“success comes from gently massaging the idea... in fact helping them come to their own conclusion... help them believe it was their analysis and their decision all the time.”

Exactly. That’s what the left did to get us into the position we are in now. It’s going to require a re-education process. The rep. speaking now at the reconciliation committee just made the point. Hastings said the tea partiers are unsympathetic because they don’t have pre-existing conditions or they have good insurance. The Republican rep commented that he has a friend who is uninsured but more concerned with something called “personal liberty.” What a novel concept! Too many people don’t even know what that is!
