Well said Mike Rogers R-Mich. It make me wonder too Bill. It makes me wonder if there is another reason for doing this. I think everyone can agree that this nations poor people have been ignored for far too long and they need our help. Simple economics tells me that if this massive healthcare bill goes through, followed by a massive Cap & Trade government controlled energy bill, the American dollar will be worthless. This will be great news for many other counties and their monitory systems... but I feel it spells doom for US. What I really wonder about is... I think this is intentional. I think we are being SOLD down the river to a New World Order intended to be controlled by the United Nations.
