We all pay indirectly via taxes. But that won't be enough to fund ObamaCare. ObamaCare needs more than twice the number of sign ups then they already have and there is lots of resistance and genuine defiance involved, more than enough to break the economics of Os health plan.


Too early to make that call IMHO--by next October we'll have a better handle on the numbers.

Rarebird; Looks like an average of about 50% against and 40% for. A change of just 5% makes it even. Waaaaaaay to early to draw any conclusion on that. If I was asked today I would say I don't like it - BUT that is a weak vote and I would be happy to change my mind depending on how it looks 6 months or a year from now.

Here's the thing with me though;...... republicans had their chance and instead of fixing health care they decided to nation build. The money pissed away in the ME for a net nothing could have given Americans a fantastic health care. So I give Obama credit for trying - I also lay the blame for not being able to get a better plan on republicans. They fought this every single inch of the way. So give Obamacare a chance! Work to fix it where it needs fixing. But to republicans if you ever want my vote get off your ideological high horse and return to governing.
