. . . Enroll in the healthcare plan they want to force on us.
On Tuesday, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a two-page amendment, courtesy of Republican Tom Coburn, that would require all Members and their staffs to enroll in any new government-run health plan. It takes less than a minute to sign up to require our congressmen and senators to do as they require us to do! Congressman John Fleming (Louisiana physician) has proposed an amendment that would require congressmen and senators to take the same healthcare plan they force on us (under the proposed legislation they are curiously exempt).
You can sign the petition here:

Oh, if the gov't were to pass anything, you bet your sweet bippy that they should take the same healthcare plan as the rest of us. Anything else would be Animal Farm.
From what I've heard Congress already has a health plan for their members.

Wow, what a debate! So what are your thoughts on last night's debate? It certainly got a bit heated, and I might venture to say a bit crazy. Joe Biden repeatedly made it clear through his complaints he felt the rules of the debate were not up to his liking. He seemed confused with a few...

Curious as to what people who are against everyone having healthcare think should be done for those who really can't afford healthcare. What are the other options? Continue down the same road we are on now?
