#1 I got a letter on this from my Congresscritter. What she says, vice the propaganda, is that the ..."bill to expand funded health insurance for families making up to $80,000 a year and would slash funding for a program called 'Medicare Advantage'(whichi is managed care for Medicare) to pay for it." The impact in the district in the highly enriched state of New Mexico (per capita income around number 47) is reflected upon the datum that 40% of the seniors here get Medicare through that plan. If the Prez signs it, that means the seniors will forced to start paying more out of pocket. In other words, its a rob Peter to pay Paul setup. So why is the coverage in the 'Children's' plan for families with comes above the national average? Do I sense a blue versus red country interest here?

In other words, its a bill with a name attached for no other purpose than to give the Donks a sound bite to show how cruel the Trunks are if they oppose it. It's not the "We're Robbing the Poor Elderly to Buy the Votes of Middle Class Families who have Children Act". Guess how MSM is going to handle it? Hmmmm...

#4 If you make 64K a year and you have a do-nothing 25 year old child still living with you, this bill give you money to buy insurance.

25? Child? Gimme a break.

#8 San Francisco being the homosexual capital, has a 0 growth birthrate. So what does she care about this bill? To here, it is about spending money.

#9 No, it's about getting their foot in the door of socialized medicine. This is the top in the door move, much pushing later, they have the whole leg in. Kill it now and moveon. Anything by FAT Kennedy should be shitcanned.

#10 Creeping socialism is what it is.

It's beyond the creeping stage. It is an all out assault, the Leftists sense that time is almost right for them to take a grab at all the marbles.

It goes back to cleaning its weapons and loading the magazines
