ReplyDeleteThere is a huge difference between an astroturf event, and a grassroot event.
ReplyDeleteAmerica needs reform with health care but this push and orchestrated staging for government run 'socialized medicine' will lead to inferior care, denial and delay in treatments and a program worse than social security in size and scope.
Why not look at what you are asking the people to choose?
See how others fare in those systems!
