Luckily there's zero chance that anyone would ever click on one of your links. Political video clips on youtube might be even more boring than discussions about sports jerseys.

More Moyers on healthcare. Lenghty and heady. "When the elephants fight the grass is trampled"...

America's mistrust of government can be overcome. But it can't be ignored. More people mistrust government than insurance companies right now, which is insane but a reality that Democrats have refused to deal with.

Two failures:

1. Massive amounts of uninsured people.
2. A huge % of our national budget.

It's the definition of inefficient.

From today's WSJ:  Of the 46 Million uninsured:
                           9.7million not US citizens
                           17.6 Million make 50K+/yr but chose not to get insurance
                           14 million on Medicade or other programs for the poor

That leave 5 million uninsured out of a total of 305 million citizens.  We don't need to manufacture another emergency so we can have another 150,000 new federal bureaucrats farging things up

So we should do nothing and continue to have it eat up a massive % of the nation's budget?

Also, those numbers are weeks old and have been shown to be completely misleading. An Indian national working for a software company here on a work visa who makes 55,000 counts twice in those numbers, once as a non-US citizen and once as a person making 50+, meaning that the totals are inaccurate.

On top of that a lot of the people who make 50+ are small business owners/employees who choose not to have health insurance because they can't afford it. 50K isn't exactly a heap of money these days...

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds
