Reformed health care on the side? Are you not paying attention?
The whole point of the Obama/Pelosi/Reid healthcare "reform" is not about improving anyone's health or medical treatment. It is all about control of 18% of our economy and a major part of our daily lives. How much it costs and how many people are covered or helped is NOT IMPORTANT. It's getting the foot in the door to put the doctors, patients, and insurance companies under government control. It is also going to destroy many state governments. Medicaid is already a huge state funding burden, sucking up 16-22% of state tax revenues. This is just going to grow as the feds mandate coverage of more non-paying people.
James Madison warned us way back when....
"I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations."
