EDITORIAL: The aspirin tax - Washington Times
Health-care overhaul limits use of flexible spending accounts for some drugs
My opinion:
Obama and the Democrats are liars. No taxes for the middle-class...yeah right. Reduced costs for health care...yeah right. Health care reform...we can certainly do without this kind of "reform".
I'll be extremely happy if the Republicans succeed in tossing ObamaCare in the trash.

The latest middle-class tax hike has just gone into effect
It's an indulgence to sit in a room and discuss your beliefs as if they were a juicy piece of gossip.

My opinion.
Implement this.
FairTax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"While I am a great believer in the free competitive enterprise system and all that it entails, I am an even stronger believer in the right of our people to live in a clean and pollution-free environment. To this end, it is my belief that when pollution is found, it should be halted at the source, even if this requires stringent government action against important segments of our national economy."

How do you figure they can toss Obamacare in the trash? The control the House - not the Senate and not Obama's veto pen. It's just partisan puffery for them to parade around acting like they have the power to do something they clearly cannot.

I'm not surprised that you have a comprehension problem, my dear...but I didn't say I figure they can toss ObamaCare in the trash. I said I'd be happy if they succeed. I'm sure the Democrats will have something to say about the attempt. Originally Posted by TennesseeRain

They can't succeed. Or do you not understand how the branches of government work? I believe there is a School House Rock video that can explain this to you and I can send it to you if you'd like. Originally Posted by JoJoGunne

Anyone else find it ironic that many who support the elimination of social programs like health care and Medicare are up and arms about a measure to try to make them more cost-effective to run.
