You must be unaware of the fact that this year US taxpayers received a largest tax cut in the nations history.

But go agead and quit is Rush Limbaugh has instructed you to do so.

I must admit that the fight against All Americans having healthcare by Americans is probably going to harm America more than any islamic extremist group.

It's pretty sickening (no pun intended)

See for yourself. See who voted which way, but more importantly, see how many dont have insurance in their home dist. and how much $$$$$ they suckle at from the insurance industry.

Great link I love how it shows how much money they took from insurance companys and how many in their district are without insurance.

You mean, like, an affordable health care option if you cannot afford insurance is "control over you"?

I'm pretty sure millions of Americans are hoping the government "takes control" and actually does something for them for a change.

Perhaps the greatest, most enduring brainwashing perpetrated on the sheeple by Republicans was by their sainted hero, the former film star Ronald Reagan.

"Government wont solve the problem, government is the problem" This has caused the sheep to believe all government is bad, even when it attempts to provide affordable health care and break up the insurance cartel.

Yes the 3.00 a week extra in my husbands check is very large its really doing a lot to help us let me tell ya

12.00 extra a mth is not worth the extra we are going to be paying for this healthcare bill and cap and trade and if we still smoked we would be in the hole

Why are so many Americans criticizing this health care reform?!
It works in so many other countries... so why wouldn't it work in the USA?

And please stop whining about your taxes! You need to spend money to improve things.
How can you improve schools, reduce crime and have a good healthcare system with everyone paying less and less taxes.

No, forcing people who don't want to purchase health insurance is control over you.
