Re: Obama losing his own supporters...

tpunx, in the future, try to use some paragraphs in your posting. You are trying too hard to prove to us that the US education is shit. Your hurt my head trying to decipher it.

Not spend more money/pass spending bills that surpass every other US President in history combined?

Im lucky enough that my fiance is still working so my 1 year old son still has insurance under her. But if she were to lose her job and my son gets sick, If I were to get help i would be drowned in bills. The fact we havent gone to a socialised healthcare by now is just stupid.
In a perfect world, socialized health care may be a good thing. Too bad we don't live in a perfect world. The health care will not be free, YOU (and many others in the US) will be paying for it through more and more taxes, which is just what we need in times of a shit economy right? I don't get why people believe health care is a "right".

Here is a link with articles pertaining why Socialized Health Care is not an answer (30 sec search on google):

"Basic economics tells us that if a commodity is offered at zero price, demand will increase, supply will drop, and a shortage will develop."

^Sounds awesome for people that NEED health care that are dying. Oh, but Joe Schmo walking in off the street needs to be checked out for a cold so you will have to wait.
