The Republican Majority did not pay for their 2003 Healthcare"Reform". They just put it on our credit card, at 3 am, after Speaker Hastert had got rid of their guy with the numbers telling the truth about its tremendous costs. Which is why big Pharma & the insurance cos. started making even more profits, as the govt (us) paid them 12% more than Medicare allowed itself to have. "In 2010 payroll taxes on working people (many themselves uninsured) and general revenue (income taxes) will fund about 80% of Medicare. Beneficiary premiums will cover just 12%. (The rest comes from the states and Medicare trust fund interest.) writes Froma Harrop in the Providence Journal.

Bush/Cheney have already put $1Trillion on our credit card in just 6 years of their War on Iraq. And they did not tell you about it, as they put it "off budget"-like your kid sneaking money out of your wallet. This nation that claims to be "Christian" just can't bear to increase taxes on those making over $250,000 a year, to pay for health care for every American? England, Canada, France, Italy, Germany, etc., do it for their citizens, and their govt run programs spend less and their people live longer. America used to brag that it was practical, and did what works. Did you read Germany's unemployment is going down, Iceland has recovered? Their businesses are free to do business because their govt of the people does healthcare by the people, for the people.
