How long does it take for those on the political left, which doubtlessly includes Ms. Wolf (based on the tone of her column), to drop the ad hominems when dealing with conservative policy arguments? The protesters at A&M were there to be heard on the issue of their opposition to impending nationalization of American healthcare, which will be an economic catastrophe. Yet all you could do was flippantly refer to one of the protesters as "Death," as if doing so was clever. It was not. You do your cause no service, because irresponsible howls are a dime-a-dozen, and are wholly unpersuasive. Grow up, Lauren.

Sounds more than a little left-leaning to me. If another government agency solves any problem, I’d like to see it. Government agencies build nothing but retirement plans for their employees and leaders. What would it cost to convert all Americans to the same plan Congress has? How about we convert Congress to the plans we have?
I want to be free to choose. If I want to spend a fortune on my plan to get more coverage, that should be my choice. I’m tired of politicians ignoring our wishes and voting what they want "because ’the people’ just don’t understand."

The death panels are not about end-of-life discussions with your doctor. They are about the group of federal employees set up in the bill that will assign a value to every person. If in their or their bosses’ opinion, you are not worth saving or being treated, you will be denied treatment. The quickest way to solve the social security funding problem is to deny health care to seniors. They will die sooner and draw fewer payments. Sadly we are becoming a culture of death.
