You can't make people make good decisions... come on, apply some common sense here. that logic is as bad as the logic that led the an unplanned war. we need a system with a reasonable level of protection for poor people, we don't need a system that insures that a result happens.

what you really saying is that there are 'some people' that 'other people' should make decisions for.

I thank God everyday for the freedom to make the decisions I make. I wouldn't want to take that freedom from anyone else. Be it to force them to believe in the God I do, or pay taxes to a system that they don't support.

Have you not noticed what is becoming of this nation of ours? We are a becoming a country run by minority interests (I don't mean race).

So while I appreciate we share some common views, I don't think I've explained myself clearly enough because I don't agree with the program and its associated cost.
