I have a hard time understanding why some people (other than those who don't pay taxes) are happy about the health reform bill passing. Who do they think is going to pay for this bill and all the hundred of millions of dollars some senators got for selling their vote?

We are now a donor state for health reform. We get to pay the extra Medicaid expenses of folks in Montana and other expenses that some senators received for putting themselves up for sale. Remember, the only money the government has comes from us. Sen. Kay Hagan followed her party's orders and sold us out. It clear that this president and Congress have no concern for what the majority of Americans want, only what they want.

Richard Benjamin,

Clayton
