And frankly, you should be concerned too because as a self-employer,
you aren't gonig to be covered by Union health care anymore.

This thread wander from its original purpose. I think it is absolutely
ridiculous that a sitting president would think that he could collect
information on those that do not agree with his ideas. While the
liberals have trivialized collection of the names, I am sure the people
of Germany trivialized the thing Hitler was doing in the mid 1930's.
The only way an obvious wrong can be lived with is if you can some way
rationalize it to make it seem right. I am not saying obama is a
Hitler, evolving rationalization of an increasing wrong is easier than
standing up and not accepting it in the first place.

As for health care, the cost is directly proportional strength of the 0%
risk mind set of the American people. Doctor malpractice insurance
should be a minimal factor in the operation of their practice, but it is
not. Doctors over medicate and over test to make themselves less liable
to malpractice. (If you say you have a problem, a doctor must prescribe
and test, or else he is negligent.) (Remember a doctor has never
claimed to know medicine he is always practicing. This is acceptable as
every person present a different system of variables for a drug to work in)

Government regulations have driven up the cost of medication requiring
drug companies to devote 30 to 40% of their staff to monitoring new
regulations, interpreting regulations, and enforcing regulations in the
manufacturing operations.

Finally regardless of how good or bad and an idea is if you can not
afford it it is a bad idea. Our deficit in the first six month of
obama's administration is 5 time what the obama objected to when he
campaigned against President Bush.(nearly 2 Trillion dollars) President
Bush saw the need to help the financial institutions. After a lot of
foot dragging obama final instituted those measures and the economy has
rebounded. (Up nearly 50% from where it was at the end of the obama
plunge). His stimulus package has not yet had an effect on the economy
as less that 20% of the money has been spent. The only thing he has
done correctly is the institution of to TAX cuts for home purchases and
the auto tax rebate system. (Which was miss handled)
