It is an extremely small problem compared to the problem of lack of access to affordable healthcare. You are creating a false choice between completely supporting a bunch of lazy asses who don't work at all, and allowing hardworking people who are good American citizens fall through the cracks. The choice is not between those two extremes.

Obama's plan does not propose paying for everyone's healthcare on the backs of taxpayers. It doesn't force you to participate if you have your own insurance, but it does give you a tax credit to help pay for your own. It doesn't put your healthcare under "Government Control."

Daihashi, you and I went around on this subject in nauseating detail a few months ago in another thread. Because we've already covered it, I'm bowing out of this one. Good luck convincing everyone about the Democratic threat of creeping communism.

I think maybe O'Reilly is coming on, and I want to see the Obama interview. Goodnight...
