They swore to defend the Constitution, not a man or men. If the leadership of the govt. goes rogue, it's quite possible the military will refuse to support him or it.
Point being, take the Armed services out, take the cops out, the civilians don't even need to be armed to take down the government, and if they are, they are just an armed mob. You march 500, 1000 people to Capitol hill with no police or army to stop them and they could simply -remove- the government from power by either disruption or dragging them out.
Now, I'm not saying that would not create it's own set of problems, because it would. -But- the people could do it easily.sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth

Originally posted by Annoyed View PostI agree. I'm not pleased with the closed door process the Senate is using to come up with its health care bill, nor am I pleased that it appears they are going to try to do a hurry up and pass it routine, not giving the public time to understand & comment on it. This alone is a pretty good indicator that whatever comes out won't be acceptable.

You are glad that the party you both voted for can't pass their legislative agenda on healthcare because it was done in secret, and it basically sucks arse?sigpicALL THANKS TO THE WONDERFUL CREATOR OF THIS SIG GO TO R.I.G.A lie is just a truth that hasn't gone through conversion therapy yetThe truth isn't the truth

Although there are certainly things I like, such as removal of the individual mandate, repeal of all but one obamacare tax and defunding PP, I have some concerns with that, mainly vague terminology. As they say, the devil is in the details. They're still not putting their cards on the table.
More flexibility on insurance regulations. The bill doesn’t include the controversial House waivers letting states charge consumers more based on health status and lifting a requirement to cover certain health services. But it bolsters waivers created under the Affordable Care Act that gives states use creative ways to implement ObamaCare. The new powers give the states more flexibility to use waivers to decide the rules of insurance for their state.
Senior GOP Senate aides say the waivers can be used to waive essential health benefits. But in a departure from the House bill, states can't opt of regulations governing pre-existing conditions.
Doesn't matter anyway, in that form, I doubt it will pass.

What sort of devil might be hiding in this "flexibility" ?
