If we can afford it, I'll support it.
I just now realized the importance my parents really played in my life. They hit the tail of the first recession, grand parents went through it. When I was a kind, it use to drive me nuts to see Mom saving foil, yarn etc. She made most of our clothes, dad wacked our hair for school. My Dad taught us all how to make car repairs, even my sis can change a water pump. My daughters can change their oil
It's just time to suck things up and say just the heck on with it.
Life goes on, if you think your way thru.
Remember when I first jumped on. I told you I was looking for a wise man, and you said I was in the wrong place?/ well there are some good thinkers here, just rowdy.

Originally posted by AThousandYoungNo doubt it won't accomplish all it set out to do; but that's because it was watered down in order to get it to pass. However, politics is all about compromise and attempts to find realistic and plausible solutions to problems, so to admit that it's not a flawless or ideal bill is not to condemn it in any case.

Originally posted by Hugh GlassAs is quite common with government solutions, created by political hacks not experts in the field in question, I think the reform will make things worse. But don't worry.

A leading financial advisor on the radio listened to a caller bemoaning the probable onset of inflation. He asked the caller are you going to stop eating corn flakes?
No the caller replied.
You going to stop doing laundry?
Again negative.
Well Kelloggs and Proctor and Gamble will be Ok, and most other American companies will be fine as well.

the fact that the people voted for obama and the dems in congress clearly indicates they supported at least some of they proposed to do.
furthermore, its no surprise people would be so against the bill at this stage, considering all the fearmongering by the likes of hannity.
