"The check is in the mail" "I'll never leave you" "Trust me" |
|
"I'll call you" "I'll pull out before that" "We'll share the profit" "My husband doesn't understand me" "We have a special kind of marriage" "We'll fix it later"
Has anyone ever believed even one of these?

21. "We'll fix it later" sounds PERFECTLY believable to me... |
|
Anyone who doesn't believe "We'll fix it later" is out of touch, glass half-empty, Debbie Downer, and all that.

26. Frankly, that's not the point (assuming you are talking about insurance reform) |

Edited on Sun Mar-14-10 12:02 AM by Ms. Toad
I don't necessarily believe they will fix it later.
I hope they will, but even if they never fix it the way I want it fixed, the changes proposed are far better than the status quo - and better than living for another 12 years (the approximate length of time since the last minor fix) or 25 years (since the last major fix) - particularly since what is propose provides far more access to health insurance than either of the last fixes made available, and imposes premium parity (which neither of the last two fixes even addressed).
