We need a congressional re bribe fund.

[lovepg]

Since the Health Insurance industry has given millions in campaign contributions to members of Congress isn't it goofy for us to expect them to do the peoples business without greasing their slimy paws first?
We need a fund made up of small contributions much like the ones we sent to Obama during his campaign. This money would be distributed on the basis of support for a single payer option.
If we could match the millions they have spent to get their way we might have an actual chance to get something passed that would resemble a single payer system.

1. Great idea lovepg, may I make a suggestion

Why don't we all just call the offices of those not supporting it like Max Baucus's and ask them outright what it would take to buy their vote back. :7 Seriously, ask them to put a figure on it. Ask his office "What would it take to buy Max's vote back?"

Is it illegal to just ask the obvious? They would at least know for sure we know how the game is played. :7

2. to bad there isn't one already and that is bankrupt, we could give it billions$

but of course some of it would have to be labled for bonuses for CEOS, and
the rest for bombs and bullets, but its a start.
