Payson Roundup

The vote is rigged. On the last one I voted 5 times and it accepted it each time. See I told you I was honest. (:
Is there some way to accept only one vote from one computer?

k6dle (Dana Elliott) says…

It is extremely hard to know what is exactly in the bill at this point. Companies are already making plans as to what benefits they will cut to their retirees and employees. Have you read the bill as passed? Which one of us has? We have become a nation who decides big decisions on the basis of sound bites brought to us by TV and radio. Feeling I am a resonable man I voted undecided. I can't wait to get my copy of the printed bill in the mail as we all should. We know we won't and many of us have no interest in reading it. But wouldn't it be fun to try to be informed?

Well Dana, all you have to know is that the bill requires all presently uninsured citizens (except the Amish and Congress) to purchase a government-issued health care policy. They wrote the bill to require fines or even imprisonment if they DO NOT buy the government-mandated “health care” insurance.

We both know that our Constitution would never mandate that citizens purchase something under penalty, right?

So… now that you know that it's NOT a Constitutional piece of legislation, how much more do you need to know before realizing that you're not in favor of it?

Treima (Jimi Alexander) says…

Fully in favor. A step in the right direction, though I wish there was a public option in the bill.
