PLEASE HELP. I am catching hell on facebook because this health care bill passed
These Republicans are saying it is going to bankrupt our country and is not going to benefit us. And Obama is just going to tax us more and more and we aren't going to benefit. I need articles saying what this bill consist of and how it will benefit all of us. Also they are pissed because the bad democrats are going to make them have insurance. PLEASE HELP ME!

9. Lots of guns, too. And no functioning government.
Somalia is a Libertarian paradise. The only problem with Somalia, as far as freepazoids and teabaggers are concerned, is that it's full of black people.
