  • 45,000 Die Each Year Because They're Uninsured

    Uh, people die from injuries and diseases, not lack of coverage.  Remember, whether you have insurance or not, you will die.

  • The Baucus Health Care Plan: Who Will Vote for THIS?

    Promoting the general welfare is a lot different that forcing people to buy insurance.  Note the difference with the requirement to PROVIDE FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE.  Active versus passive.  Healthcare is not a right, it is a service, (although now some want it to be a requirement).  The government needs to stay out of this.

    Requiring that people purchase healthcare insurance has got to be one of the most un-American things I have ever heard.  The argument that this is akin to car insurance is bogus since the requirement for car insurance is not to cover you, but to cover the guy you hit.  Oh, and you don't have to drive, it is in itself a choice and privelege.  This bill requires you to cover you.  In a free society it is your right to decide what is best for you.  Young, healthy people will spend very little on healthcare.  They may want to spend their money saving for a house or college instead.  And let me guess, most of you who support this idea are "Pro Choice", right?  Well, not always, huh.
