Poll question: If you were a senator, would you vote for this bill?
Based on what you know today, which way would you fall?

1. No, I don't support taxing people because they don't have enough money to buy healthcare.

2. I'm not sure where I'd go just yet.
I feel like there are a lot of good arguments on both sides. I hate the mandates without a public option. But I also understand that 30 million people will have care.

4. How will 30 million have care?
Because the insurance mafia will force them to have care? I don't get it. I've heard that number thrown around on TV, but I don't believe it.

5. Exactly. And our tax dollars are going to help them do it.
This is getting really expensive and doesn't do enough to drive down costs.

I'm sick of people being denied health care because of the current horribly broken system.

9. No. And, I will be calling both my senators to ask them to vote No if there
is a mandate, with no public option.
