Health Care, Again

Now, the Deacon thinks health care needs to be reformed for consumers and providers to actually be healthy. How we go about that, well, let's have a discussion. Oh, you lack the intellectual ability to discuss health care? Well, just yell, then. Hell, bring a gun to a discussion. Republicans even think it needs to be reformed, or, say they do, but, well, watch the video that follows and listen to Sen Grassley. Democrats want to reform it, have a majority to pass it, but do everything in their power to try to water reform down to make people happy.

Let's realize one thing about this situation: A majority is trying as hard as it can to cater to a minority - not just the Ds to the Rs, but the Democrats to the few registered Rs left in this country. An aside. The Deacon doesn't mind if you're a Republican, but think about why you are. Did you think, "because of I believe in its ideals?" Please, wake up. The people in power of the Republican party don't have the ideals of the party at heart. Form your own party, and right the direction this ship is taking!

If you watch the rest of this video (seen below, and, at 9:22 in length, I don't expect you to take up that much of your time), you'll see a discussion with the head of the AFL-CIO. That made the Deacon think. What if we do the public option? What if we require union members' families, and union retirees to opt into it? In case you're wondering what would actually happen in that situation, GM would still be GM if we had the balls to do that!
