It is what a majority of voters said they wanted.
I hear your cynicism, but rat voters had no idea that the liberal congress critters they love and trust, would put a plan in place that would raise their health care rates 100 - 400%.
The Dems and Obama sold them on the idea that this act would make their health care more affordable. Now they get to "see what's in it", and boy, are they going to be pissed.
