…the Tea Party position is fundamentally incoherent. Most of their candidates, including Palin, are free-trade Republicans, but have remained strangely silent on the issue, because the majority of their supporters strongly favour trade barriers to protect US jobs.
They claim a monopoly on patriotism, yet such is their hostility to Federal government that they scarcely seem to believe in the United States at all.
And their definition of liberty is a strangely selective one. Who is less free: the person who pays a portion of his or her income in taxes to ensure decent healthcare should they fall ill, or the one who pays a portion of their income to an insurance company and, when they get cancer, are told that their cover won’t meet the cost of the chemotherapy?

Legacy costs for medical benefits effect every business in America.
They have no effect in Japan, England, France, Germany and every other Westernized culture because they all have universal or semi-universal health care.
Wake up. 50% of Health Care is paid buy government already. The other 50% is massive profits for private companies who are raising your rates.
