2. You left out effectively banning abortion by making it cost prohibitive.

5. A very telling part of this bill.
And the lack of conscience of our elected Dems in office.

9. Please explain
Federal dollars can't pay for abortions now. Federal dollars can't pay for abortions under this bill. So how exactly is the bill worse than now?

Abortions aren't being banned, effectively or otherwise - that's a false argument.

3. Hear, hear! n/t

Kill the bill.


Forcing people to buy insurance is no more the answer to a failed health care

system than forcing people to buy houses is the solution to homelessness.

6. The sales were offered by the lobbyists and eagerly bought by the administration.

7. Fortunately (for them) they don't need your consent to make it a binding contract on you.

You, like me, were dumb enough to petition your government and leaders for reform of health care. That was all the invitation these hyenas needed to slam us into forced payments to their real constituents, the financial and insurance companies.

Be careful what you wish for - Democrats may hear you!

8. Man it's going to be a hoot when this passes.
I will enjoy the tears.
