		<description>The Democrats simply do not care - look at all the retirements - they know they will lose in 2010.  They are staunch ideologues.</description>

		<description>PS--the Congress cannot pass a law that cannot be repealed. The Congress can pass a new law saying that the old law is repealed.</description>

		<description>Raquel, I no longer believe that the United States government, the heritage that was created by the founding fathers is viable.  Jefferson thought that there should be a revolution every 20 years.  The American republic is 234 years old. It is now teetering and a new republic is required.  Until Americans decide to free themselves, things will continue to get worse.  A free people would not tolerate taxes that amount to more than 50% of national income. Americans have become a nation of cowering slaves, cowering at their masters in Washington.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think I would count on this Supreme Court to overturn Obamacare.  Look who his appointee was - Sotomayor.</description>

		<description>111 new federal agencies ???????? Let&#039;s see , soon the whole country will be employed by the government. Of course , there won&#039;t be any usable roads for us to get to work on - but who cares about that? Who needs to fix the roads and highways , that&#039;s not the government&#039;s job. Let the bridges collapse. We have more important things to do. Let&#039;s demoralize the doctor&#039;s even more , so that they all leave medicine. fun , fun , fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  Oh , and don&#039;t forget about all the people who don&#039;t want health insurance. Can&#039;t have people running around without a health insurance number. Got to give everybody a number. Luckily it isn&#039;t on the inside of our wrists - yet.</description>

		<description>I hope so Mark.  I understand that the bill contains a provision that it cannot be amended or repealed.  

There are a few entities seeking to litigate the matter (A couple Attorney Generals of several states are said to be looking into a lawsuit -- backed by their respective governors).  I think in the end the US Supreme Court will have to hear this on a number of different issues.

Can the government force us to buy health insurance?
Can 1 state pay for and receive different options in healthcare, than another?
Can the government insert a provision in the bill that makes it permanent?</description>

		<description>By law, can&#039;t ANY law be repealed?  Since the Constitution can be ammended, can&#039;t this law, once Obama signs the bill in January, be repealed by a new Congress that is hopefully domimated after the 2010 elections by free market conservatives?</description>
