It was a corporate gift from the outset, and the process of its passage is perhaps one of the best recent examples of collusion between the parties that now both work for the corporate elite.

They fired up one side with the promise of universal health care, and they fired up the other side with the threat of government-controlled health care....

and they finished with a "compromise" that mandated every single American to buy a maliciously overpriced corporate product for their entire lives. And no. There are no plans to "fix" it.

Neither side out in the country wanted what we got, but it was their plan all along.

Wake the hell up, America. The theft is bipartisan. Occupy.
