We need to stop this BS socialist democratic healthcare immediately
Edited on Fri Feb-26-10 01:12 PM by Fresh_Start
lets cancel the healthplans which are provided to the Congress as the very first step.
BTW, lets cut their pay for next year and put them on furlough until the economy improves for the average American

1. Okay, but how?
That's the kind of thing THEY vote on, themselves.

2. The only ones this would hurt are the good ones fighting for us.
The rest of them are already rich, they can leave the country if they want/have to to get the care they need, and they don't need the paltry salary.

3. doesn't the Administration adminster the budget?
Obama should say that the US cannot afford socialist healthcare plans according to the great minds in Congress, so he's eliminating them

6. Its happening to the rest of us...
lost jobs, hours reduced, hourly rates reduced.

Why not stop insulating our representatives from reality?
