I'd like the Public Option AND totally 'free market' programs - and
all those teabaggers can keep the insurance they've got - and we take away everything that they asked for - they can't go file any "frivolous" lawsuits, no state border options, no regulations whatsoever.

It'll work out as well for them as their current 401K's.

Sometimes, when dealing with a bratty, unruly teenager, you have to actually give them a little room to make their own mistakes before they are capable of learning anything from it.

1. Market - based solutions
Most assorted libertarians and republicans claim to be in favor of a "free market" but, in most cases, this is pure bullshit.

If they truly did, they wouldn't try to make it difficult for me to buy my meds overseas for a fraction of the US price.
Disregarding their unjust laws and regulations, I can order them from India for about a tenth of the price at the
"company store".
