HEALTHCARE SHIP IS SINKING and all but lost to Americans
The loss of bureaucracy and corruption that will be created by a 2000 page bill, is nothing to mourn over.

The Dems don't have the balls to take on the deeply entrenched special interests that are keeping costs so high for most of us.

Because people don't put up with the level of corruption we do, They don't feel the need to only have 2 choices - bad and worse- on the ballot. Canada has 3 major parties. Countries in Europe have 4 and 5 major parties.
