I agree with JohnRJ08. I am tired of this debate being overtaken by people who take marching orders from Limbaugh and Glen Beck rather than analyze these bills to see how it will affect them. It does strike me that many of these attendees are retirees who benefit the most from government social programs (not socialism). There are legitimate concerns with this bill that being lost in the background of this “noise”. I thought it was interesting to see several faith-based organizations rally in support of healthcare reform today. Lastly I’d like to remind the author that if we’d followed through with G.W’s privatization of Social Security, it would have as much money in it now as our 401Ks, which is to say, nothing! The arguments of less regulation and more free market seen in the current healthcare debate are the same old arguments that allowed the Wall Street fat cats to run our economy into the ground and laugh all the way to the bank!
