I thought it wasn't respectful to say something as long as the debate was on whatever the outcome may be.
Now that it has gone through, how will the beneficiaries interprete the potential free access to a healthcare insurance contract? Throughout time I noticed that an entitlement is never free even for those who do benefit from it immediately. I happened to think that when Congress agrees to create an entitlement of that size and signification, it means at least for those who did vote for it, they have given up on the beneficiaries? They won't bother anymore to fight for a society and an economy providing enough opportunities to insure the potential beneficiaries of such an entitlement won't need it? The social stagnation for an entire segment of society will be more tolerable and accepted?
A binding relief both social and economic? Where such kind of entitlements have been created elsewhere in the world, it has proved to be a social trap, sadly sometime even for the beneficiaries becoming less motivated, accepting the situation.
Will it produce the same result?
When you think a particular segment of the population needs an entitlement to something to access it, you must conclude, that this particular segment will not be offered in the foreseeable future any opportunities to improve their lot thus allowing them to choose whether they want to pay for the service?
