It would also explain, or at least highlight the stiff cost of insurance and the vast difference in people's insurace vs. financial health...and their freedon...that's right I said it... to make a choice between the two.

Who suggested that health care was going to be "free?" Anyone?

You're right, cause I want a third of my paycheck to go to a program I don't support. Even more motivation...

What portion of your paycheck is it now? The plan will reduce health care expenses, you know.

You must have a pretty small paycheck. In which case you'd qualify for the refundable credit.

Their freedom to choose not to support universal health insurance would be similar to their freedom to not support community fire and police protection, education, and the like. By spreading the cost to all, we reduce the cost overall. Those who whine about their "freedoms" are just freeloaders who will be signing up for all the protection they can get from society whenever their luck runs out.

Mandating coverage? How do we pay for people who can't afford it?

Abraxas, I feel like buying you a beer- except you're underage and half away across the country. Oh well.

You know what would be a hoot? A IAP convention, where we all show up and sit around and shoot the shit and try to figure out who we are by our IAP names. I think I'd recognize Patton pretty quickly, and perhaps Citizen4Progress and Illy and Fred and Totino. The rest would be harder.

Then see how long it is before fights break out.
What do you think I look like?

well technically i guess the right thing to do would be to vote for this as we do live in a democracy but then again i guess we are voting on it if we know what the canidates stand for. so i dont feel bad for anyone losing 1/3 of their pay if she is elected or obama or....... nevermind edward dont have a chance.  Undecided

Through taxes. Like Medicare and Medicaid. And Social Security. And freeways. And the military. You know. Taxes.

And I figure SuperChicken would be the one talking non-stop and whose eyes don't ever actually focus.
