He has never been denied benefits in California. He is being taken care of. I agree everyone needs medical insurance. What I worry about the fact that we are having something forced upon us that we don't want. We don't want the government to control us more than it does now.

I understand how you feel. However, that's politics as they say. I'm of a liberal/social libertarian position politically. I realize that when the American people vote...the majority speaks. When a Conservative is elected I understand that I will not like many of the initiatives they impose upon us. I don't like laws that restrict our freedom of association weakening collective bargaining rights of American workers being forced upon me. I don't like an unnecessary war being forced upon us (Iraq - Afghanistan was justified in my opinion). But you know... it's just the way things are. When the American people elected Obama knowing that he wanted reform including a national health insurance plan, that essentially was the American people accepting the idea.
I guess one can't win them all. A Democrat was elected. Let's face it... he's not going to have Republican ideas. |
