Nobody, nobody, has suggested that they, "personally" think they have the right to decide how to spend your tax dollars. That's fascism, totalitarianism, dictatorship. The national health care debate is about how we, as a people, will spend our tax revenue, what business our government is in. That's democracy, which I haven't heard you say a bad word about, so either admit that you're opposed to making decisions via lawful democratic means or take the nonsense about other people deciding where to spend your money and shove it. Nobody here has shown the least bit of interest in any undemocratic approaches to running a nation. If you really believe that a lawfully elected democratic government making a decision about how to spend tax revenue is an infringement on your freedom, then you are a lunatic fringe nut case and not worthy of serious attention. I should have figured that out a while ago. Nick
