Why not just make a law outlawing poverty too?

Better yet:

A law mandating that everyone have a job.


Been there done that. It didn't work for the U.S.S.R. either.



"We're providing incentives and tax credits which we think will be very
attractive to the vast majority of Americans."HRC

What they need to do is take away Congress' fat health care &
retirement benefits... the benefits they receive are Imperial in scope
& splendor... and the country can't afford *that* much less to expand
such a program to all. How about increasing funding to local & state
health care programs that actually do something for people who can't
afford "in-system" health care?

The people who complain that the U.S. doesn't provide health care to
low-income people would be astonished at the amount of "free" health
care (or at least, free to the recipient) available. Of course, to
receive it, one often has to wait in long lines.... go figure....

Oh yeah, where do you think she gets this plan? It was cobbled
together by trial lawyers and insurance company execs.... in other
words, the lobbyists for the business interests who are eyeballing
Uncle Sam's wallet and can't get enough of that trough.



A great quote here-
"At this point, we don't have anything punitive that we have
proposed," the presidential candidate said

That's right.... buy health insurance from a gov't approved source....
OR ELSE!

Oh and don't forget they have your phone tapped now, so they'll know
if you're cheating.
