Maybe Democrats need to pay more attention to their constituents. They spent most of the summer avoiding them, castigating them as extremists, and calling them “un-American” for their outrage over their radical agenda to overhaul the US health-care system, but never bothered to listen to their actual concerns. The latest Gallup poll of American adults shows overwhelming satisfaction with current medical care and insurance plans, which explains why most of them would like to improve the existing system rather than put government in charge of it:
Americans are broadly satisfied with the quality of their own medical care and healthcare costs, but of the two, satisfaction with costs lags. Overall, 80% are satisfied with the quality of medical care available to them, including 39% who are very satisfied. Sixty-one percent are satisfied with the cost of their medical care, including 20% who are very satisfied.

Ping.
If Gallup is not even rigging their polls.....you know the worm is turning.
The government doesn’t care what the people think. They just want more control. Remember Stalin’s saying? “You have to socialize health care before you can socialize a country.”
So, 61-80% of Americans are racists.
The healthcare bill may be nothing more than an outline. It could basically be a blank bill.
RedState had the story early this morning

Why do you think it matters if the overwhelming majority is satisfied?
There are still twenty-thirty-forty something percent** who are NOT happy, because they are not equal.
It is Society’s duty to force the 80% at gunpoint to provide free happy to the 20%.
If that can’t be arranged then the 80% must sacrifice so that everyone is equally miserable.
** The exact number is unclear. The numbers may not add to 100% — in fact they may not make any sense at all — because liberals work off of feelings and are not good at math.
BTT!
Lenin said it in 1920—to gain complete state control, first gain complete control of health care. ,p .vaudine
Sadly, you're all too correct.
Some have said, the Czar system could the path to HC “reform”, thus bypassing the legislative branch. Pass an empty bill, let them put “regulate” it.
Likely a real option being considered by this WH.
“Maybe Democrats need to pay more attention to their constituents”....
Only after it’s to late....All these rat bastards are history...They just don’t know it yet! The giant toilet will flush at midnight on election day!
They're possibly realizing the turmoil and degree of change for what amounts to 10% of the population.
That seems to be the way its going.
Pass a blank bill with the boadest, vaguest outlines and there is nothing to debate.
very sad.
When does O start to become a “lame duck”?
Thanks for the correction. I knew it was something like that.

Would you explain what you mean to me. 10%...you are kidding right.
“The healthcare bill may be nothing more than an outline. It could basically be a blank bill.”
basically it would mean anything the bureaucrats want it to mean?
