I Can Dream can't I ???

I think you are right, I think he is going to win. I might get flamed for this, which is why I haven't mentioned it before but I am scared of him winning. I don't want to be socialized. I admit that I think something needs done with the health care system, but I also like actually being able to get in to see a doctor. Also, DH and I work for small companies, and if I am not mistaken Obama will be putting large taxes on small companies. We're headed to a recession no matter who get in. It's a scary time, indeed.....

Well...it may be too late. The current administration is buying up companies and banks...isn't that "socialism?" ANYONE who gets elected must raise taxes. There is no other way out of the current mess. McCain wants to "buy up the toxic loans." More socialism. And he will do that without raising taxes?

Silly man.

I read recently US medical care is 37th in the world but first in....cost. Some of the key measurements for quality of care are infant mortalityand maternal health. So we get lower quality care and pay more for it.

"Socialized" is one of those demon words that are used to frighten the population.

Oh I do know that taxes are going up no matter what. I know that they have to. I believe that about our health care system, I think it's out of control. Though I have no idea how it can be fixed...

It's working...it does scare me! Then again, I probably don't know much about it.

The mess that we are all in now has been a LONG time coming...and it will probably take a long time to get out of it. It's just scary to see where we are headed...
