Sorry but I totally disagree. I fear all of it—the incremental march on our freedom, a reconcilliation, all of it.

Why do you think reconciliation will improve the bill? Once in place, additional provisions will be added as has been the case with all government programs, they expand, they don’t contract. More regulations, more taxes, etc.

What makes you think it will be nullified in 5 years. What bill has EVER been nullified? Why would you want any type of bill put in place.

As a conservative, I don’t want government taking over the health care segment of the economy, raising my taxes and telling me what doctor I can see, what I can have done, etc.

“What bill has EVER been nullified? Why would you want any type of bill put in place.”

- This is exactly the point I was conveying to my parents. Medicare, SS, Dept of Education, etc..none of those worthless behemoths of drudgery have been recalled, despite the mountains of evidence that they do far more harm than good.

In the end their goal is to destroy social cohesion, both in and out of the military, break up families, foster extreme government dependence, and eradicate any desire to better oneself.

It would definitely destroy its comprehensive aspect—which is what’s most objectionable. As it now stands the bill doesn’t take effect till four years from now. But in five years it can be nullified since all reconciliation bills are subject to renewal after five years. Believe me, it will be easier to kill this under reconciliation than it would if the bill passed through normal channels.

Exactly. Checking the sign up date may put things in perspective.
