78. Did you think that once this Health Insurance Bill went into effect people would forget their

opposition to all that was wrong about it? Mandated Ins. I sure wish I could get Congress to force the public to buy my product. No PO. And in the end all the excuses 'we need Republicans to be on board so we can't have a PO, they will never vote for it' were just that, excuses. Because no matter how far backwards Dems bent themselves to try to please Republicans, in the end Dems had to pass that bill all by themselves. Which means, they COULD have included a PO. Well, they could if they were not trying to please and to SAVE the Private Insurance Corps, who got a windfall from this bill.

But it's a done deal so we'll have to wait a while until we get a Progressive Congress and WH, unfunded by Big Corporations, before this all can be fixed. THAT has to be the goal now. We learned what it means to have the Third Way running things in this party and that is what has to change.

But whatever made you think that people who opposed mandated insurance ever since Republicans came up with the idea were going to suddenly support it just because of the letter 'D'?

I oppose mandated insurance, always did and always will. There is something obscene about people having to 'shop at a marketplace' for their very lives.
