Love it, but since that's the attitude by Obama it's probably planned.

"... successfully purchased coverage"

Is this one (and only) found by a reporter who goes on to note the "purchaser" says that he actually found out that (at 27, but with health problem) he was eligible for Medicare, and the online exchange signed him up for that. So he is not paying for it, except via [perhaps] the normal payroll taxes.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
