Laws that mandate programs that have no way of paying for themselves and then expecting the states to come up with some kind of magic to make them work?<br /><br />Actually I don't think they want any of this to work. All they want is the destruction of America as we know it and the collecting of more and more power for the elite that seeks global governance --- and a place of importance for themselves in the whole thing.DaveBurkettnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-16215531779566518382009-12-23T16:38:40.929-05:002009-12-23T16:38:40.929-05:00Joanie--

Like the fact that it's deficit neutral, or worse yet that it will save money. And the claim that we will have more freedom of choice under a government plan.<br /><br />Their hearts are as black as coal.Arlene Albrechtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-66443989530924585462009-12-23T14:59:58.592-05:002009-12-23T14:59:58.592-05:00Good info.

And God bless you for still trying to make a difference.<br /><br />Merry Christmas!<br /><br />~ joaniejoaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11914891807184694081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28785049.post-1405450419834234412009-12-23T13:00:40.858-05:002009-12-23T13:00:40.858-05:00Good work, Cooper.
