No. As soon as you talk about fining people for not having healt insurance and putting laws in place that make you pay the same for health insurance as someone that has more serious health concerns I think that you shoot yourself in the foot. That's just MHO.

I agree...

I did like the part in there that said, "People that can't afford their premiums would be exempt from the fine"...

This is what I mean when I say I want the President's policies to fail. Has nothing to do with the man other than his ideas about how he wants to run the country. Also there is nothing in that sentence that says anything about wanting the country to fail. Quite the contrary, I believe his policies will do more to cause the failure than help.

It appears his own party is beginning to see the light.

Health? That's where all this money will go.

Roads all covered from fuel revenue.

Rail is private.

Social security is already broke and should go private.

stick with Austrailian politics dude.
