I was watching the Dem. debate the other day and Edwards challenged Hillary and Obama about their plan and He mentioned something about hardship exclusions for people who can't afford the government health coverage. I thought that was kind of fishy because they are saying the government will give them free health care and idiots are falling for it. I thought the way he worded made their plans sound like Romney's plan.

Remember when they forced car insurance onto us the said it was gonna get cheaper. Now what really happened is the insurance cable after it was mandated by law raised the prices big time.... What is scary is the same pukes are doing it again and this time I really think its gonna sink us big time.

They KNOW it's gonna sink us bigtime. That's why they're doing it. Anyone who thinks government healthcare is a good idea is an idiot who hasn't gone to a VA hospital.

Europe, Canada, etc. have a hard time with socialist health care and they don't have world empires to maintain, so I can only imagine how disastrous it'd be here.

How can I defend Paul against Obama's claim that he will insure the un-insurable?

"Subsidies. Individuals and families who do not qualify for Medicaid or SCHIP but still need financial assistance will receive an income-related federal subsidy to buy into the new public plan or purchase a private health care plan."

Insurance isn't the problem. Prices are the problem.
