I have never seen so much rage..
as there is attached to the health care debate. Insurance companies are paying some employees to call congress while the pro health reform groups are seemingly unorganized and totally ineffective.
Like this debate we are having now was totally unexpected. Seriously have they been caught off guard?
Where is the push-back from the groups representing the 76% that want single payer or at least the public option?
I really fear a scene in the streets like they have in Iran when people realize they are gonna end up being forced to buy health care
with very little actual reform of the industry. You know it took a democrat in office to get welfare eviscerated and NAFTA enacted.
After they screw us on this I say they will go after social security.

1. They will go after medicare first.
I think the GOoPers game plan is already laid out. Even Obama is talking about 'doing something' to medicare.
If public health care goes down medicare will be ripped to shreds also.

2. Well I am not so sure the agenda..
Is not a shared agenda. They all take the same corporate bribes.
Mr Obama took tons of Wall street money. And gee that certainly worked out well for them didn't it.
I am just saying.....

3. Don't kid yourself, people are pushing back.
Don't buy the excuse that the Dem's aren't hearing from us. They've tuned us out. They can't hear us because they're too busy counting all the cash they're getting from the insurance companies.
