Remember when you loved it until Obama did it, then you hated it?
Obama did it wrong. Democrats and Republicans can see that.
Any bill that must be passed in order to we what the bill proposes is a bad bill. Everyone had to take the bill based on good faith. It was never fully explained and it didn't need to be because Democrats held the government.
Health care reform could be so much better without forcing single males to buy maternity coverage and birth control. Without a mandate that forces everyone to buy a product, even if they don't want it. Government enforcement of purchasing a product for no reason other than the government says so is bad government.
Now, that is actually not true. The bill was available online in all it's forms.
The bills are always available here:
