Bottom line: You dont.

There are enough people willing to call, travel there, etc. But not enough who WOULD. They are going to pass the bill even if 99% of the populace is against it. Why? Because there are so many earmarks for sideprojects in the bill that will make them personal money that it would be stupid NOT to pass it... regardless of if it throws the nation on an undesireable path. Who cares if they don't get re-elected? By the time thier term is up, they will have enough money and connections to never have to worry about a job or money again (if they are smart stewards of the money). The world is run by greed and money. If you have money, you can do whatever the heck you want. If you don't, you are a slave.

People do not have the backbone to stand up and fight anymore. We are too aware of what we "could" lose. Too cognizant of the mental anguish the nation would face to turn things around to the Founders original intention. We would be labled hypocrites, racists, religous fanatics.... Our nation is too imbedded in the political correctness nature to ever turn around.

The mentality of equalism has led to the point of where we MUST take care of everyone regardless of their situation, that they of course are not repsonsible for. The habitual crack mom who sleeps around and can't take care of her babies? It's ok, we'll get her in a rehab program and put the kids with protective services. No mention that the process is messed up. Drug rehab's are a physical pain during withdrawal, but it does nothing for the mental cause of the affliction. As soon as they are clean, they are release back onto the streets where once again, they cognizantly know no other way but drugs to dampen the pain of their life.

The guy who can't find a job? I GARUNTEE you if we get rid of welfare there will such an influx of the worker populace that we will be forced to tighten the borders on immigration. We hear the line of "immigrants are essential to do the jobs that Americans won't do"...Excuse me? If it will put food on my table for my family, I'll give the cow a blowjob! Welfare is a way for the government to garner votes and a positive rating to those lazy @!#$^^& who won't get off their butt. After all, why should they? They've had such a "hard life" and "it's about time that I get taken care of".

Don't get me wrong, immigration is what made this country such a wonderful place. And yes, we need certain welfare for certain individuals such as disabled vets, etc. Lord... I need to stop. Sorry, didn't mean to get on my soapbox...

This Healthbill is just ridiculous and they know it! You will get fined for NOT having health care? If you can't afford health care how are you going to afford the fine?!?!?!?!

They think it is better to pass "something" than not to pass anything at all.

I was born a few hundred years too late.... grr.
