    FOH with people having no problem being forced to have car insurance but now health insurance is Socialism.

    and FOH with acting like Socialism is a bad thing when every country in the world with a higher standard of living then the US just happens to be a lot more Socialist.

    What writing on the wall?

    U think Obama wanted to sign a huge stimulous package? Nope but he had to and he did and it kept us out of another great depression.

    This healthcare bill is the furthest thing from socialism! It doesnt ahve a public option even, b/c they gave that away to a republican amendment of cross state exchanges.

    Canada, England are extremely socialist countries ? they are sssoooo scary.

    How do some of these right wing extremists calculate any kind of help from the government for the not so well off equals communism. I love the analogy of health care bill vs. mandatory car insurance. Its obvious that in some instances the government has to step in to make somethings fair, thus improving the quality of life for everybody. I.e. civil rights and affirmative action. 50 years ago those things were considered communistic by the bigots who opposed. Commmunism is one of the hot button fear tactic words that right wingers use to pull people to their side. I personally am neither rep. or dem. and believe most politicians are shady. We have no clue what the real movers and shakers decide for the masses behind closed doors. But sometimes something good comes out of it. But believe this. America will NEVER become a communist country. There is too much money in having a class of impovershed people. The powers that be would blow this mf up before that happened. Even China, arguably the most powerful country in the world has some forms of capitalism / free-market policies within their brand of communism.

    Conservatives and Libertarians still hate affirmative action and civil rights. They hate anything that keeps privileged white males from staying on top at all times. And yes, they'll continue to call anything that doesn't promote white supremacy
    socialism or communism.

    All you guys see is the here and now. People have no regard for the underlying themes that are occurring right before our eyes. The Government gives us healthcare and now the world is all peaches and cream. SMH @ y'all. I thought you people were intelligent, but my bad, I was wrong. It's ridiculous how blind people are.

    It's crazy how when you speak the truth, people label you as a conspiracy theorist and a religious zealot.

    It's all good though. Evil only wins when good people say nothing. I refuse to sit by as a dumb sheep being led to the slaughter. I will sound the alarm and those who have an ear to hear will respond accordingly.

    and you still dont answer my question. ill put it really basic so even a simpleton like you can understand it.

    If Jesus was alive today, do you think He would tell a sick person who has no money to go die somewhere because he doesn't have the money to pay for his treatment? would He care about the 'underlying themes'?

    do you think he would say that paying taxes to help the sick is evil?

    "Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of ? in accordance with the truth. [22] Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

    He saw through their duplicity and said to them, "Show me a denarius. Whose portrait and inscription are on it?"

    "Caesar's," they replied.

    He said to them, "Then give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to ? what is ? 's."

    yo u cannot be this ignorant. i refuse to believe someone who claims to be the herald of the second coming is this ignorant.

    This isn't about "sick" people being denied treatment. Again, you fail to see the repercussions of this bill. There is more going on than what meets the eye. I have told you that this isn't about health care under the surface. This is about TOTAL government control of the population. What you fail to realize is that the passing of this bill is just another step towards that goal. Your only looking at the "so-called" benefits that this bill will produce. But at the same time your turning a blind eye to the real issues at hand. Your being led to the slaughter my friend. Your a sheep and thats exactly how the government wants you to be. Whatever they say and do is right. They can do no wrong in your eyes because they're looking out "for the people." It's laughable how blind you are my friend.

    Your looking at a band-aid that the government has produced for the moment. A band-aid for a wound that is fatal to begin with. But like you say, "the government is looking out for the people." All they are doing is helping us. LOL.

    The plan is being executed to the T, Get the people to become totally dependent on the government. Your falling right for their trap. But wait, "The government is looking out for sick people, what would Jesus do if He were here?" LOL...... Come on man.


    If the blind lead the blind, they will both fall into the ditch. The ditch has been dug and your walking head long into it.

    I don't think most people who talk about communism in America really know wtf they're talking about. As being someone who came from a post-Communist country, America is so far away from communism it's not even funny. If anything it's moving toward a more right wing government with SOME left leaning programs. I don't even understand how health care can be considered a left wing policy when there are countries in the world that were far right and have health care for it's citizens.

    I'm sorry but you typed all that and actually provided nothing but allusions. What exactly are you talking about? And please come with some factual information, not just the typical "you're too blind to see but you will see soon" type of replly. This bill is going to prevent insurance companies from denying coverage to people when they need it most and from cutting people off when they need it most. It will keep people from having to decide which chopped off finger to have reattached due to which is more affordable. Come on man you can't be serious right now. Now like I said, if you have some super secret inside information as to why this bill is so bad then please actually share it with us.
