I think we're being played re; Caddilac tax
I don't think there was ever going to be a tax on our insurance. It's all just bullshit to make us all feel like we've just had a major victory when it gets dropped. Then they will spray some gold paint on the actual health care turd and we will all smile when they hand it to us.

Call me a cynic but ALL politicians have lost credibility with me and I put nothing past them.

3. But our "elections" are a rigged sham on many levels, & the old would merely be replaced by the new
Who will follow the established patterns accordingly. Voting will get you nowhere fast. Just like now.
