    By the way, my opinion is that John Boehner is an idiot and should be impeached and charged with obstruction of government.
    Reagan didn't have to deal with those Bostonians that I mentioned.

    Except our government would basically be under your control (except for the Queen and the Reptilians), so it very much does matter.

    It seams like all the americans are afraid of social benifits and universal health care because you pay for others and there might be people who exploit the system and so on.
    As i understand it obamacare as it is refered to is a step towards universal health care apparently thats bad for you?

    Norway is the country you should model yourself on i think 4.5 million people the budget has been in surplus since the 70:ths 2.4% unemployment allthou they do import alot of workers from abroad. Anyway they have an national fund that they invest in wich atm is worth about 667 or billion dollars they can use 4% of that in the budget atm they are useing 3.3% apparently.
    Now they do provide free health care free education and so on and still they run surplus in the budget.
    maybe you should go and find a politican in the us that can provide that and vote for him/her best choice atm obama cause his atlest thinking in thouse terms

    Good post Hedge and good to see another view.
    I really think its not so much of a health care issue at all, its the way its presented.
    One think Americans don't like is, being told they have to do something.
    Its just like anything else, you need people to buy into an idea, don't jam it down their throats and expect them to just go with it.

    Like Grandpa always said "Don't be selling me a load of manure and call it perfume"
