Read The Bill!

   My message to Democrats: Yes, do read the bill, because we have no idea what is in this bill. 60% of the Americans polled are against this bill, and that's despite the fact that this bill has been crafted in secret.

   My wish list for Christmas: Tort Reform and Cross-State insurance competition. I'll warrant neither are in your bills. Instead, there are rumors of an individual mandate (where is that in the constitution) and a hidden tax increase in the form of forcing insurers to insure people with pre-existing conditions.

   When people get free health care, there is disincentive to work.
   It's really quite simple. People on the margins now have INCENTIVE to work because of the health insurance provided by businesses. Without that incentive, some will opt to forgo work. That can't be good for our economy.

   I think instead of your bill, I'd rather have a lump of coal in my stocking.
