In case you forgot, we had an election in 2008 where the people who wanted healthcare reform were voted in to power. So the government did listen to the people. The problem for you is that the people in November 2008 did not agree with you. Maybe they do now, but will they in November of 2010 and 2012? Possibly. Only time will tell.
Elections have consequences. I'm sorry you are unhappy about this set of consequences, but that's life. I was upset with a lot of what the Bush administration did--as were many other people. But somehow the Democrats were able to handle this with a bit more maturity without hopping on the crazy train. Sure, there were left-wing loonies who attacked Bush with great vitriol, but the national party kept them at bay. Unfortunately the GOP has let the crazies take over this time around, and now there's no going back.
actually, take a look at the numbers. over 50% of the country did not want goverment health care, they wanted health care reform. this bill is not something they wanted.
Contrary to popular belief, it is not all about YOU. Last time I checked we held a free election in November of 2008, which by a majority elected a candidate who campaigned on health care reform, among other issues. Better luck next time.
I don't hate government I want my government to listen to me and do what we ask of them when we are the ones electing them so once again you have it wrong. This is a Republic not a Socialist Democracy people seemed to have forgotten that its time they get reminded.
Should the government listen to only you, or should the government listen to others as well?
America had already butt ****ed us before and of course again. It was just like the Great Depression. All America wants is money from all of us. They never meant for our well being of Latnios and Blacks. They just use us as profit of cheap labor. It's sad how us forginers are used in this way

Well, here's the thing: "YOUR" government (as you said, "my" government) is everyone else's government too and apparently they didn't like the way that you and yours were running things in the past. Your party and ideology sucked and thus got voted out. That's how the dice rolls.
Your melodramatic "sky is falling" dog and pony show does not work on me. And what's with the "socialist commie" combination? It doesn't even make sense.
He is not the first to demand for revolution when they can't get their will through democracy.
I didn't demand anything I am simply stating facts. A revolution will happen in November and probably even after that it will continue. Hopefully we can get the communist non citizen president impeached and then charged with treason and hung.I would personally by a ticket to that.
Well, now you know what it felt like being a liberal for the past 8 years. Trust me, you'll pull through.
Actually what you went thru was called 'head in the sand syndrome.' And I can tell it has affected you deeply. Well now you have Obamacare to treat it. So it all worked out.
