We are DEEP IN DEBIT, Medicare is going BROKE, Social Security is going BROKE. That's already unsustainable. What on Gods green earth makes you believe A Public Option won't go broke? I already pay over 50% on my money to State, Federal, Local, Cable, Phone, etc. etc. . There is a Tax on every Darn bill I get! Now I need to pay even more? So, what would you like me to give to this charity? I'll tell you, any more, and what...
