Freedomworks

Its funny that a conservative think tank/ astro turf organization like Freedomworks is calling reconciliation a "parliamentary trick." Reconciliation is just an up or down vote with a 51 majority rule. No one has used this "trick" more than republicans. It was how Bush 43 passed his tax cuts for the wealthy. If health care reform is socialism than so is Medicare and if you want to opt out of that you should probably stop driving on our socialized roads too. In regards to expense, health care reform is a drop in the bucket compared to the money that is wasted on the military industrial complex. The current bill just scratches the surface of what needs to be done.
