Why don't employees have the right to decide what health insurance they have right now?

Oh that's right, because if they did health insurance premiums would drop because there would be real competition for consumers and the unions and employers would lose power over workers so they lobby congress to write tax laws in such a way that makes it expensive for workers to buy their own health insurance.

My parents think Arlen is a good friend of working people, but he always struck me as a sly piece of work. He makes great speeches and then votes dead opposite.

Face facts folks, Arlen is just another lock-stepping Conservative Republican only interested in the interests of the very rich.
