70% say America is on the wrong track

No single payer.

We already have county hospitals

Interesting argument. Can you explain it a little more?

Kinda gotta agree with Shooter on the healthcare fiasco. That shit sucks. My so called "skeleton" plan is fine for me because I have free supplemental insurance as well. Combine the two and voila I'm good to go. Now, instead of keeping my old plan, I am possibly forced to upgrade to a more expensive (and not needed) plan. Sure I could downgrade, but then the deductibles are jacked out of proportion, which was the reason why I preferred my old plan.

And Obama is terrible IMO, and I usually am on the Dems side, but after Obama, he may have swung me over to the Repubs with his bullshit.

County hospitals are govt (county) run. They are where you go if you can't afford to pay. We already have quite a few. Cook County had a really big and busy one when I lived there. Bellview is a county psych hospital in NYC where they send crazy people picked up off the street.

If these don't suffice, it wouldn't take 16% of the economy to build more and hire doctors to provide actual Health CARE to those who don't have insurance.

They could also pass laws requiring companies to allow kids up to 26 on their parents' policies, portability, non cancelable policies, etc., without requiring a mandate or tax of any kind.

Odd, isn't it, that a president who champions "choice" in other areas is denying you the choice to choose the level of health coverage you want (?)

And Obama is terrible IMO, and I usually am on the Dems side, but after Obama, he may have swung me over to the Repubs with his bullshit.

You and a lot of other people, probably.

Most Americans started saying that during the Bush Administration. Fox News likes to find poll results from liberal rebellions and claim they are conservative rebellions.

For starters, you and I probably have very different notions of what it means to be "on the wrong track."

That's what I said. Conservatives pretend that this useless, all-encompassing polling question shows opposition only to Democrats. Everyone on the left answers "yes" to the question. Only moderates are satisfied.

Or anyone else.

Letting others rule your fate in life will never be very satisfying.
