I agree that the health care reform currently being rammed down our
throats is crap.

But politicians DO impact if not directly control the economy.  It is
both the executive AND legislative branches that do so, either by tax
policies, government mandates or just by being such complete asshats
that consumer confidence is driven down.

And the blessing of big business is not a monopoly held by either party
- they both know where their bread is buttered and pursue those dollars.

Why do you think part of Obamacare is that everyone be mandated to
purchase health insurance?

If I sold a particular product or service I would love to have the
federal government require its use.

The alarm industry needs better lobbyists - it should be a Federal
requirement that every home in America have a professionally monitored
fire alarm system.  It's for the Children!
