Would you just let them steal from you? So is your idea of Health Reform to turn people away at hospitals and ambulances until they show proof of insurance? -- "In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found, than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department." - James Madison
