2. ). or if i go to taco bell and i want a taco but i decide to get the fiesta taco salad instead.the crunchy taco supreme is 210 calories while the fiesta taco salad is 840 calories. this is for everyone's knowledge .one cant make a healthy or informed choice if you dont know how many calories you're consuming .

I get your point. but, the bottom line is, IT'S ALL CRAP! eat it in moderation and you'll be fine. No matter what item you choose.

We don't need the government FORCING these places to post the information.

LESS GOVERNMENT involvement in OUR lives! That's what I'm after.

Cheers,

Bob

Personal responsibility is a value that's slowly dying over the years. People think you're an asshole when you expect them to take responsibility for themselves. Remember kids, Hillary says if you elect her you won't have to think anymore. The Government will do all of that for you.

@truthadvocate Health insurance companies don't like healthcare, instead they like collecting premiums and denying care. And they wrote the healthcare bill and they funded the movement to defeat it so they would win either way. Obamacare is Bob Dole care resurrected from the Clinton era. It keeps the insurance companies in control and it allows them to loot the treasury as the IRS forces you to pay under the threat of wage garnishment and eventually prison for tax evasion.

@truthadvocate Here's your answer on Obamacare spoken like a true cut throat capitalist tea bagger. Your answer is that "My" health insurance stocks went up after they passed it. I cashed in because the companies that pay their lobbyist bought off the Congress to draft a bill based on Bob Doles old healthcare bill proposed as a challenge to the Clinton healthcare reform bill. And it's great because it put corporations first and you last. I hope that clears it up for you.

Keep in mind folks the personal responsibility argument is a fine line between corporate domination of our lives for profit at our expense and the government nanny state. In between that is where we as individuals fall into the equation. Not all government involvement in our lives is bad, but we as individuals and as a society need to do a lot more thinking before corporate America and the American government both gain more power to exploit us for their political or economic gain.

@FlyinSpaghettiMnstr7,

Then give me a logical argument for exactly how this bill will improve healthcare.

Here's a tip. Politicians, Democrat & Republican, don't care about your healthcare. They care about getting elected. The way they get elected is by promising to pass bills that benefit special interest groups (corporations, unions, trade associations, etc.) in return for large campaign donations & media exposure. They use this money & exposure to lie to you. That's the nature of politics.
