If that were true Obamacare wouldn't have passed. They would have been
thinking of the unemployment lines long before now.

I'm not buying it.

What are people going to do when their employer drops, or is forced to drop
their insurance? What are they going to do when the taxes double? Pay it.

Well, they're suicide Democrats. To re-find the article below I
Yahoo'd "poll americans government against". The list of hits was
amazing--2/3rds of America is against almost all the stuff Obama's
doing.

Friday, July 16, 2010

The notion that governments derive their only just authority from the
consent of the governed is a foundational principle of the American
experiment.

However, a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that
just 23% of voters nationwide believe the federal government today has
the consent of the governed. Sixty-two percent (62%) say it does not,
and 15% are not sure.

Yet 2/3rds of America isn't against OBAMA. If what you are saying were true,
there wouldn't be a safe seat in Congress, this November.

The stuff not of revolutions is being well fed, so far.

Wonderful in theory. In reality, people are too easily bought with their own
money.

That doesn't seem to be translating into much real change (and I don't mean
the hopey kind), however.

You *are* still broke. If had saved (in a 401K, or whatever) you wouldn't be.
