The way we killed "Social Security Reform". LTTE need to be written and now. First thing I think we need to do is rename this something appropriately sinister. Who's with me.

9. I like that one.
Because that's what it is. Part of the program is to remove the employer tax deduction for paying fo health insurance. How many companies will offer insurance if they lose that deduction?

It all adds up to a lot more uninsured.

5. Disagree with that
The word "funded" implies that it actually is...which it isn't.
