I bring it up because it highlights how the GOP is too concerned with the short-term interests of wealthier folks than the broad populous. And you even admit here that you are sick of the high cost you personally have to bear because of the additional Obamacare taxes. But if those taxes are rolled back while reducing health care coverage for a huge swath of the less wealthy citizens -- which is what the GOP is trying to push through -- your personal interest in doing much to materially reform the cost structure of our system -- along with the GOP's legion of loyal wealthier patrons -- is likely to be significantly abated.
Sorry, dude. We, as a nation, are facing a crisis regarding health care costs that will be a huge drag on our economy for the forceable future unless enough people get behind the painful-to-special-interest reforms our health care system needs. And the only way that is going to happen is enough good folks like yourself to stop giving the GOP a pass at the ballot box regarding the matter. Because the frightening scenario you paint about "socialized medicine" is hogwash that the GOP spinmeisters have been the gullible public for decades. Germany has a very good health care system at 2/3rds the cost the US overall pays.
