1. And they won't be finished after destoying the public option. Next comes
the thing you have been hearing more and more about lately, as they get us "conditioned" for it.

It is being called "giving the consumers the right to buy insurance across state lines". Something we've all been dreaming of, right?

It is NOT about giving us a choice nobody is asking for. Its about deregulation of health insurance. Once they are allowed to relocate to states with little regulation or consumer protection, they will kill other companies and "co-ops", that don't do the same. They will compete on price because the policies they write will become more and more worthless, while we will be forced to buy them.

If you google it, you'll find that their puppets have been trying to get this through for several years now (ex: Sen. John Shadegg, R-AZ)
