    “Affordable insurance” isn’t . It means that people will still have to pay out of pocket for copays, medication, deductibles, premiums, and other ways that insurance companies nickel and dime us. 99¢ candy is an affordable food, but that doesn’t make it a meal.

    Brock is wrong. didn’t engage in personal attacks. He spelled out sharp differences on policy & the reasons for those differences. It’s called POLITICS. The response ought to be to defend or explain those polices, not claim foul & play victim.

    Any Yes vote on this package will contain excuses about why it was a Yes vote. No more excuses. Nothing in this package is so good it will counterbalance . Austerity is austerity is austerity. If your rep votes Yes, get ready to challenge them. I know I will.
