We all need to know what our Constitution says, and better understand socialized medicine and socialized anything, and to talk to those who have lived it. THEN, decide if it’s a good thing. Gullibility, and a desire for a quick fix, can be a dangerous combination. Social Security and welfare were supposed to be temporary fixes. If we all had the money we put into social security in our own money market fund, we would be much better off, financially speaking. From just the knowledge I have acquired through the years and some things I have read recently, I am more and more convinced that the top dogs in this country, Republican and Democrat, and others are not out to help “Joe Citizen,” but to utimately enslave him. Don’t believe me. Check it out.

L LAIRD says:

Attorney General McCollum:

In light of recent revelations that you once again used a no-bid contract to hire one of your political friends – this time a colleague of yours during your time as a Washington lobbyist – to file a frivolous lawsuit against President Obama’s historic health insurance reform law, pursuant to Florida Statute 119.011, I am requesting the following information and records from the Office of the Attorney General be posted on
• Any and all communications and documents related to communications between your office and your former employer Baker & Hostetler since January, 2006, including but not limited to any and all communications or documents regarding the decision to retain your former lobbying firm Baker & Hostetler and/or your former Washington D.C. lobbying colleague David Rivkin, within the Office of the Attorney General and its respective staff, including but not limited to email, letters, files, and documents.

Do hope all of the twenty thousand (20,000)plus un-insured of Escambia County could used some of the Tax payers money to help pay for their health insurance. Shame on all Republicans for supporting this waste of $$$. Congressman Alan Grayson stated ” Republicans answer to the un-insured, If you get sick, hurry up and die quickly”.

Bravo, for all the states that care about their citizens and the future of this country. The blatant disregard for the public will and many abuses of our systems that went to produce it, make this bill onerous to all of us and dangerous in it’s precedents. Thank you all for fighting for “we the people.”

Car insurance is not a federal requirement. They’re filing a suit against the federal government because they believe the law is unconstitutional. Read the article.

Sue the government? lol!!! While you are at it, sue them for us having to pay any tax at all, sue them for forcing us to have car insurance , sue to end social security

How about, if you need a fire truck, you just pay for it when you call, I mean, why tax everyone to support police and the fire department? lets just get rid of them right? if people need the police or fire trucks, they can just pay out of pocket

But what if they are broke? Oh well, I guess the fire dept can’t help them, or the police.

Do you see my point? Its funny thought, because this was voted in, it is what he was elected to do, good luck with the lawsuits , who are you going to sue? the voters? haha

I don’t see the comparison between being required to have car insurance and being forced to have health insurance. As a driver on the roads, I am at the mercy of another driver who may be under the influence of drugs, alcohol or just not paying attention— if I get hit by one of the above listed motorists, I should be “covered” for my injuries of body and car. Where as if I don’t have health insurance, I’m not causing harm to anyone else but myself. Who is to define “affordable” to anyone of us trying to maintain a household. 100 dollars may be okay for one family while 3 dollars could be a burden to a struggling family. Not to mention being fined for not having any. Where did the freedom of choice go in this country of ours?

Small businesses could fail– causing more job losses. So is going on welfare going to be the answer? That’s just another ball of wax, isn’t it????
