Coakley's Backers


Secondary to that Michael Meehan acting like a union thug -- did anyone notice who was behind the fundraiser for Martha Coakley? Health Care interests. No, really. Come down to it, insurers, HMOs, and pharmaceutical companies are all for Obamacare. They support Coakley because they want this reform. It will make them money.

Add to that the fact that you'll pay more for Obamacare if you live in the wrong state, or if you're silly enough to not belong to a union. Add to that the fact that you'll be forced to buy insurance coverage whether you want to or not. Oh, and the insane notion that we can pull 500 billion out of Medicare without affecting services....

And I have to wonder, is there any reason for anyone to support this bill except for the fact that it's Obama's baby?

Here's a quote for the union member who lives in a 'lucky' state:

“When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.”
-Benjamin Franklin


***Update:

I found a good list of those supporters here.
