Did you read the Health Care proposal of Hillaries secret task force?

Taking *control* of 17% of the economy and bringing an entire industry under federal control would have dramatically negatively effected the economy. It also *mandated* the government select doctors for you. And went so far as to take control of higher education as it related to the amount of doctors allowed in certain professions.

Look around the world, complete nationalized health care is a failure. Governments around the world are struggling to find private enterprise answers to their own government health care crisis. Canadians at least have the best health care system in the world (America's) to depend on when they really need things such as MRI's and rapid surgery. Where would Americans go if we adopted Hillary-Care?

Complete socialistic answers are not what we need to address the problems in medical coverage. Socializing the medical industry would only create more problems 30 years from now. I for one, don't want to dump another HUGE tax burden on my children.

Health care issues are complex and require a *systems* view to solve. Tort reform needs to be near the top of the agenda. Something Al Gore and his left wing cronies don't have a chance of addressing since they're in the back pocket of trial lawyers who pay them off with campaign contributions.

I'm glad they didn't because it also would have mandated by law that you would have had to carry a federal health ID card.

If they had passed that atrocity, I would have cut it up and mailed that ID card back to the White House. If arrested for that act I would have refused to pay a fine and would, today, probably be in a federal prison -- a political prisoner (of which they have many... they lie when they say they do not).

Hillary is a very evil, manipulative woman.

<<Hillary Clinton and her task force on health care >>

That one cost what? A billion $$ +. Also violated many laws about public access to government hearings. What a waste.
