Pretty interesting, just returned from a Town Hall Meeting with my Congressman on Health-Care.

Main concerns from the people were, afraid company plans will fold and leave it all up to the government plan with no choice, the speed at which this plan is being pushed on us, and where the money is coming from to pay for it in this economy debacle.

A poll was taken on:
Are you willing to have your taxes increased to pay for it?
Are you willing to pay an extra $1000/yr ?
Are you willing to pay an extra $2500/yr ?
Are you willing to pay an extra $4000/yr ?

70% said they were unwilling to have a tax increase to pay for it.

People are starting to wake up to the fact this is going ahead way to fast, questioning what quality of care they will get compared to private plans , and howand where the $$$ are coming from to pay for it.
