Vote Democrat - smaller paycheck - simple as that.

WASHINGTON  - campaign_minute Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to have workers' wages garnisheed if they refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans.

The New York senator has criticized presidential rival Barack Obama for pushing a health plan that would not require universal coverage. Clinton has not always specified the enforcement measures she would embrace, but when pressed during a television interview, she said: "I think there are a number of mechanisms" that are possible, including "going after people's wages, automatic enrollment."

Clinton said such measures would apply only to workers who can afford health coverage but refuse to buy it, which puts undue pressure on hospitals and emergency rooms. Under her plan, she said, health care "will be affordable for everyone" because she would limit premium payments "to a low percent of your income."

Clinton also suggested Obama would be more susceptible to Republican attack ads in a general election because he has not been scrutinized for years as she has. Link

   I'll keep this real simple for those of you who may be arithmetically challenged. The more people who CAN get healthcare - WILL get healthcare. The number of healthcare providers is static, therefore demand will increase and supply will remain constant. Thus, the price of healthcare will rise and so will the cost of the insurance premiums necessary to provide that healthcare. Hence, the cost will rise for YOU. Democrats consider 'a low percentage of your income' to be 20-30% - that's what you pay in taxes NOW (if you're lucky). When Democrats get control, that number is guaranteed to go up - they have promised to do exactly that - raise your taxes. Therefore, if Democrats are elected, your taxes WILL go up and they WILL take another substantial additional portion of your income to pay for their incredibly costly national healthcare program. Think 'Department of Motor Vehicles running your local hospital'. A vote for Democrats is a guaranteed reduction in your paycheck - a substantial reduction. Is that clear enough for you?

I like that last line - if there was ever a target for attack and derision that would be Hillary Clinton. She was born with a target on her forehead.Spread the word!

Hillary has been scrutinized? Well, yes in some mild ways. She's never been held accountable. At least she's honest enough to let slip her real agenda. Ann, are you listening?

No kidding... "Ann are you listening?" I saw that interview replayed and it made me sick.

I wish those who love Hillary were smart enough to grasp what really will happen if she gets elected. People are so stupid! I heard a woman say she wanted Kucinich because he was a vegetarian. !! People that stupid should not be allowed to vote.

Duh.......

Think for a minute!

If you don't have health care who pays for your medical bills?

If you have the bucks YOU DO-.

If you have no $$, no insurance, some kind a tax subsidy will eventually pay the bill!

And we all know who pays taxes!

Radical IDEA but it has merit from this stand point.
