(47,992 posts)please, who it is that you have decided is not part of this issue. Not necessary to this discussion so we should shut it down now by promoting irrational reactions to something that isn't identified any more accurately, any more validly, than by some bullshit label, the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil 3rd Way. Especially given the fact that all stake-holders aren't even at the Medicare reform table yet, I'd very much like to hear who it is that we don't NEED to hear from. Who it is that you would prevent a voice by taking this administration down on false grounds. There are more positions here than slavery to the obsolete "us" against "them" modalities that brought us to our current disasters.
Freedom includes the ability to BOTH resist or support as is appropriate to the empirical facts at hand, not blind knee jerk reactions to ideologies and abstract predictions.
