The people who get in the program? Isn't that the whole idea, to get people who are receiving medical care to assume responsibility to help pay for it, instead of having them treated in emergency rooms so everybody's taxes have to pay those inflated costs?

Wasn't this the idea when Conservatives introduced this idea? When Heritage formalized it as policy? When Romney implemented it in Massachusetts? To put those emergency room charity cases in their place? It was all free market hosannahs when the GOP was behind it, or have you already forgotten?.

No, you guys hate this plan because its Obama's baby now, and you know once it is running it will be as popular as Medicare and Social Security, and he will be remembered as the one who got it passed as law, and the GOP as the ones who did everything they could to stop it.

Besides, why should you care? If you hate Obamacare all that much, buy your insurance somewhere else. Don't tell me you're so concerned about the rights of folks who are currently uninsured and are treated at your expense and mine (if they're treated at all).

The smart thing to have done was to tax everybody for health care, a national health insurance program for everyone. And then pull the plug once and for all on the health insurance industry.

Yeah, you heard me right.
