    That's a great principle for a health care system.

    I can't wait for nationalized health care to be instituted here in America.

    Health care from the people that brought you the DMV!

    Actually Obama's health care plan is far less dictatorial than Hillary's.

    I was being sarcastic.

    Both plans suck.

    But at least Hillary wants to scrap everything and start over new. Obama justs wants to get everyone to pay more taxes.

    Common implies the rabble knows what's good for them.

    What would they know? They're not on top.
