Answer 1

very clever.. I give you 5 stars for making me smile.

Answer 2

Err.. regress is the opposite of progress. The congress comes from a latin word that means "to come together"

Answer 3

YES, they are going backwards instead of progressing by createing a new class of needy welfare recipients from the lowest tax bracket of the middle class. Just look at what will happen if this SCHIPS is not vetoed!;

The children's CHIP program will be renewed but extending the services to more of the middle class must be VETOED. In PA Governor Rendell already opened up this program in march 07, many of the middle class is now on a very long waiting list for CHIP’S and have canceled their private health insurance just to get on the waiting list.

As a low-income disabled veteran with one child my co-payments for my daughter’s healthcare in CHIP’S were increased by $1224 thanks to governor Rendell. The COLA (small cost of living adjustment) increase for 2007 did not come close to covering this increase, not to mention the substantial increases in our electric, water, sewer, heating bill or taxes etc. etc… The CHIP’S program also includes health coverage for adults and the elderly called; “Adult basic”. The 2007 COLA increase did not even cover the grocery bill increase just for our elderly. This is adding more expense to those who are low income but do not qualify for welfare and adding money to those who actually HAD private health care.

Each state must look at why so many middle-class Americans must work additional part time jobs (that offer no health coverage) just to survive. Opening up this health insurance program to a higher tax bracket of middle-class Americans will place MANY, MANY more families below the poverty level. And who is it that states; illegal’s are working jobs Americans don't want? In reality it is much cheaper to hire a few part-time illegal’s with no health coverage than one American full-time with health coverage. Veto this bill and fix this health care problem where it started…
