This may have some short term positive results, but we need to look at this long term. What we are doing is opening up the floodgates to spending. We are borrowing and borrowing to support our “habit”. Someone has to pay. We are forcing our children to pay for our greed. We need to cut government spending and reduce its size dramatically. It is government that caused these problems. Have you heard the statement that should give you nightmares? “I’m from the government and I am here to help”.

If Crist is involved in improving health care with money from the stimulus then we may as well give up. This guy has no clue what he is doing. All he is is a pretty face. Hasn’t anyone read about the failure of Cover Florida?

If Crist is hopeful I am hopeful. He’ll simply have to define dramatic in detail before one can comment. Same goes for “how much of a positive impact”.

I think it should help, but will not solve the problem. We should not have planned our budget around something that we weren’t sure was going to pass. It seems we should find other ways to improve our health care rather than just through federal funding.
