See, this is the difference between the progressive point of view, and the conservative point of view - the progressive point of view must rely on false assumptions, that anyone who opposes government run health care must be working for the insurance industry, or some other way more concerned about personal profits than the well-being of others.
And it just isn't true.
That's why you will always have a difficult time persuading others to even consider your opinions.
Remember when the line was that the only reason anyone opposes reform is because we are racist? Yea, how's that line working out? Couldn't convince people we were racist, so now it's that we are in bed with corporations. Give it another month or two, and this line will be spent. I'm kinda curious where you guys go from here to try and shout down the opposition with![]()
That's not the difference, not even close.
You qare missing the larger point, too, by being too literal You think there's no reason to talk about the industry corruption of the spporters of its agenda, when the Congressman who led the Medicare part D bill thatg waqs a giveaway to the big pharma industry resigned right after to become head of the pharma lobbying for $2 million a year? You think he wasn't already working for big pharma as a Congressman betraying the public trust when he did that? You think it's a coincidence that the memebers who have taken big pharma money are supporting their agenda (and Obama too)?
You're missing the point a lot.
