From the LVRJ:
"A large majority of Nevadans believe health care reform -- which President Barack Obama has promised will not add one dime to the budget deficit -- will result in tax increases, according to a poll commissioned by the Review Journal.
The telephone poll of 500 registered voters found 77 percent of Nevadans, including two-thirds of voters from Obama's own Democratic Party, believe the estimated cost of almost $1 trillion over 10 years for a health care reform package will require tax increases."

Nevadan's, contrary to a certain stupid poll, are pretty smart. We generally don't believe in big government and the distrust of government is even bigger.
Showing how really stupid Democrats are: "But the difference between how Republicans and Democrats responded is huge -- 74 percent of Democrats back the Obama initiative while only 9 percent of Republicans approve" And what imitative is that? Obama has been a wuss when it comes to the health care debate. He says he wants it, but he has not put out a plan. So what is the Obama imitative? What specifics has he put forth in a bill?
Finally: "If U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., were to try to circumvent the filibuster rule and to get a health reform bill through the Senate with only 50 votes, only 32 percent of the state's voters would approve." If Harry did this, that would be the final nail in the coffin for Harry Reid. With unemployment projected to be around 14% or higher when election comes around and his actions on health care, Harry will be defeated by anybody the GOP throws up there. Hell, even Jim Gibbons would be able to beat Harry if this scenario works out, which I hope the scenario doesn't pan out.

ReplyDeleteThere are some people but not that many, who need Medicare. People who are severely disabled-physical or mental- are not able to get regular insurance, except at a huge cost- much more than they can afford because they arte on Social Security-Disability, where they only get about $1000 a month.
But because millions have signed up since Obama, it is threatening to bankrupt SSI-D and Medicare, And many of those newly signed up aren't really that disabled to stop work.
