Sorry bout that,
1. Yes, its wrong, and holding over peoples heads that they will either get it willingly, or else be fined, is an outrage!
2. It will ruin what America is all about.
3. It won't fix whats wrong with healthcare, it will make things worse, for we all know not everyone can afford it.
4. We know that 90% of black people will not be paying for it, and will not make enough money to be fined either.
5. Same goes with poor or middle class whites, 60% of whites can't afford it now, those self employed, or they would already have it.
6. What this does is play into the hands of the hospitals, insurance companies, and the doctors, also the pharmaceutical companies, medical machinery.
7. More money will flood into the industry than ever before, they will be in hog heaven.
8. Each one serves the other, its a mafia type based business.
9. They are all in *The Family*.
10. You heard it here first, its the truth for sure.

"White House officials tell ABC News that in his remarks tomorrow President Obama will indicate a willingness to work with Republicans on some issue to get a health care reform bill passed but will suggest that if it is necessary, Democrats will use the controversial "reconciliation" rules requiring only 51 Senate votes to pass the "fix" to the Senate bill, as opposed to the 60 votes to stop a filibuster and proceed to a vote on a bill.
Lawmakers on Capitol Hill have been awaiting the president’s remarks direction on how health care reform will proceed.
In his remarks, scheduled to be at the White House, the president will paint a picture of what he will say will happen without a health care reform bill – skyrocketing premiums, everyone at the mercy of the insurance industry as recently seen with the 39% premium increases proposed by Anthem Blue Cross in California.
He will note that the “fixed” bill will include the proposal for a new "Health Insurance Rate Authority" to set guidelines for reasonable rate increases. If proposed premium increases are not justifiable per those Health Insurance Rate Authority guidelines, the Health and Human Services Secretary or state regulators could block them.
The plan to pass the bill includes having the House of Representatives pass the Democratic Senate health care reform legislation as well as a second bill containing various “fixes.”
The president will call for an up or down vote on health care reform, as has happened in the past, and though he won't use the word "reconciliation," he'll make it clear that if they're not given an up or down vote, Democrats will use the reconciliation rules as Republicans have done in the past.
White House officials will make the argument these rules are perfectly appropriate because the procedure is not being used for the whole bill, just for some fixes; because reconciliation rules are traditionally used for deficit reduction and health care reform will reduce the deficit; and because the reconciliation process has been used many times by Republicans for larger legislation such as the tax cuts pushed by President George W. Bush."
