There are few issues as close to home as healthcare. There has always an aversion to changing our system to a single payer model. We saw it with Hillarycare and we are seeing it now.

Most of the uproar that came from these meetings seems to have been spontaneous at first. There is a real fear and anger out there. I know, I have it as well. It is honest to say that it has now snowballed into an organized exercise with everybody and their brother coming out of the woodwork to decry this plan.

Obama did this wrong, the Dems did this wrong. There should have been an actual national debate, with ideas from both sides. This is something that effects ALL Americans, not just the 52% that voted for Obama. Instead, we get this mangled POS getting shoved down our throats.

How about an honest and open debate concerning probably the single most important aspect of people’s lives?
