From the Cato Institute: Universal Coverage Kills
The Democrats all said, "vote for us and we'll get out of Iraq." Well you voted for them and they've had two years in which they've changed nothing (not for the better, anyway.) Both Obama and McCain are helping to give away billions of your tax money to wealthy bankers (and formerly wealthy bankers) who already proved they could not be trusted with the money they had. You think a vote for a third party is a wasted vote? What would you call a vote for one of those two?
And don't let your focus be completely stolen by the Presidential election. There are dozens of other choices you will have to make on your ballot. The way I see it you can handle them one of three ways: a) do your research ahead of time and try to make a reasoned choice; b) leave it blank; c) choose blindly. I hope you will not consider option "c" as a reasonable option.
Don't be bullied into going to vote just for the sake of voting. If you go, vote because you want your voice heard. A vote for a republocrat is pee in the ocean. A vote for a third party (or even a line left blank) will scream much more loudly. If you don't want your voice heard, then why vote?

The article says it better than I can. I guarantee our next President only wants to make this worse. Not intentionally, of course, but what is it that makes every politician blind to the simple laws of logic? I guess it's the fact that we keep electing them. Yes, we need a change all right. The kind of change we can't get from a Democrat or a Republican. We need real, down to the core, surgery kind of change that we can only get from bringing in outsiders to every office.Federal bureaucrats have announced that, as of this month, the Medicare program will no longer provide financial rewards to doctors and hospitals who harm patients.
That is not a typo. For more than 40 years, Medicare has provided financial rewards to providers when a patient requires follow-up care following a medical error.
