Voters were promised that they would get more health care for less
money. In reality those who already have insurance will be getting less
health care for more money and those without insurance will be
/required/ to /buy/ it or face penalties collected by the IRS. If you
think about it, is it any surprise that just about everyone involved
feels they were lied to? That's before we get into the rationing aspect
of the new system.

Bill,
I think the health care commentary in the USA is dominated by monied
interests that want it to go away. We have reached new levels of
cunning here as special interests try to confuse the issues with false
information. Nobody down here can hold an informed opinion against
the health care program. Some can be confused into opposing it, but
that can't continue indefinitely.

Frank. The guy with the most votes wins. Period. Sorry, but that's the
truth.
Not always.
Consider also why voter turnouts are so frequently low. There are other
ways to rig an election besides stealing a ballot box.
Every election in this and the last century was "decided" by a minority of
the eligible voters. The "majority" of a minority is still a minority.
And it wasn't until late in the latter half of the 20th century until all
citizens were technically eligible voters. There's still hanky-panky with
that even today.
I think this is happening somewhat more in your country than in mine,
although our last election had voter turnout appallingly low, but the system
is becoming polarized around money, and we are seeing a political system by
the rich for the rich.
I offer up as evidence the apparent voter refusal around universal health
care in your country, which apparently a majority of voters don't want, even
though a vast majority of citizens would benefit from.
