or the healthcare bill is about to pass

It's not the end of the world, but it's going to be a big "I told you so" in five years when health care and health insurance costs are still skyrocketing. No one wants to deal with the root problems, so this legislation is just going to make things worse.

Maybe. I don't think anyone really knows whats going to happen, but everyone SAYS they do.50 years ago there was a similar fight over Medicare, and people made a lot of the same types of arguments they are making about this bill.No matter what happens, this bill won't be the end of the world. If it turns out to be as bad as some people think, then when there is a different majority in power, they'll repeal it and the people will love them for it.

^^ i watched that entire youtube, those tea-bagger folks are a joke. That whole movement is full of sensationalism and exaggeration. I guarantee none of the people interviewed will be negatively effected if the bill passes. This does not mean the bill is right, but i think many people are misguided.

^this thread was focused on just that. It's not that it's a mistake or not, let's say it is a mistake, it's not all that bad, if it doesn't work, we can fix it, I don't think giving it a chance deserves this much bitching.

^^ Because trying things that are designed to fail wastes time that could be spent doing things that will actually work. In many ways, doing the wrong thing is exactly what we have been doing all along. Ever more government spending and subsidization is what got us here, how is more of the same going to fix anything?
