So who is willing to step up and defend their fellow human being by saying such actions taken by these savages is completely wrong?
I don't like their methods, but since when is protesting government actions... wrong? Last I heard, we still had the Freedom of Speech in this country.
The guy that threw the money at the man with Parkinson's is an ass, but he was making a point and a valid point. It is not the government's responsibility to force us to be charitable.
My personal belief is that everyone should have access to health care. Quite frankly, I believe everyone in this country already has access to health care. I am not opposed to having my taxes go up in order to make sure that everyone has access. However, I am not a fan of the solutions that the politicians in Washington are trying to ram down our throats.
Disgusting, simply ******* disgusting.
It starts around 0:51.

On another note, at 1:24, it looks like Mal.
That guy throwing the dollar bills at the guy should have both his wrists broken.
The woman at the end? Put small businesses out of "work?" Really? Without having to offer an employer paid plan, small businesses will benefit most from increased ability to compete.
It seems to me that you have not thought this through. Many small businesses cannot afford to offer their employees health insurance and don't. Now the Democrats are indicating that their plan will force those employers to provide health insurance or face tax penalties for not doing so. If that is true, then it will force some small businesses out of business.
My wife works for a dry cleaners. They do not offer health insurance and simply can not afford to do so. Now, you want to penalize them for not doing so? Who has to provide the health insurance for a couple, the husband's employer or the wife's and what about the other employer?
The Democrats are also indicating that on a personal level you will be required to carry health insurance and be fined and/or imprisoned for not carrying health insurance.
Now, let's just pretend that there is a provision for small business of say less than 50 employees that exempts them from the penalty for not offering health insurance, as there probably should be, but the law states that everyone will carry health insurance. Many who work for a business of less than 50 employees may very well lose their employer sponsored health care (would you as an employer continue to pay for your employee's health insurance if you were not required to and the employee could get it elsewhere?) yet be required by LAW to pick up their own coverage and if they make more than 4 times the poverty level they will be deemed capable of providing health insurance without subsidy from the government (less than that level will supposedly be provided a portion of the subsidy) and be forced, regardless of personal expenses to purchase health insurance.
Maybe you can afford to spend $1200/month (for a family) for health insurance, but I can't without some major changes to my lifestyle i.e. defaulting on my mortgage. This bill is a disaster waiting to happen.
