"like the youth trying to take care of the elderly" what beautiful BS. The "youth" are finding out what it will cost THEM to "take care" of the elderly and are not interested. Who knew?

Unlike other welfare programs deeply hidden in your withholding tax so that you believe on .00004 cents per dollar is actually for welfare, THIS program makes you write a check every month for the amount of your "contribution" Americans are always generous with other people's money. If everyone, not just small business and self employed, had to write a check for taxes every month, the tax system would change. Tomorrow.

When people's premiums double and deductibles triple, the "difference" is your "contribution" to the sick and elderly.

Income tax did not work well until they instituted withholding taxes.

Obamacare cannot work as long as it expects young, healthy, self centered people to write a check every month for the old, sick and lazy. YES, they voted for Obama, but they don't want to PAY for it!

This is why no other country in the world has done anything so incredibly stupid.

The ONLY method of government care that works is single payer and that would require an overhaul of our current tax system to pay for it. But, like other countries, it would be "Free" Except that today, (black Saturday, we call it in Vermont) is when we are invaded by hundreds of thousands of Canadians seeking to avoid the 15% sales tax in Quebec...which pays for their health care. There will be 2-3 hour waits at the border.

We could implement the FAIR TAX and pay for the health care with the increased revenue from foreign business relocating here and employing Americans and savings from laying off 90% of the IRS
