Senator Barbara Mikulski Compares the Health Care Reform Bill to the Manned Moon Landing

Around six months ago I emailed Senator Barbara Mikulski telling her that I do not support the health care bill in it's current state. Today I got the average "I appreciate your comments but I'm still going to vote yes even though the majority of the people that voted for me don't support the bill and I don't care if I get voted out of office because I get that senate salary for life" type response.

What shocked my was that she said that the health care reform bill is as a historic moment as the manned moon landing was.
"This is a historic moment. Forty years ago, the United States of America landed a man on the moon. I think that's a wonderful achievement. But if we can send people into space and be able to afford to do it, we can also help people get to a doctor and be able to afford to do it. " Barbara A. Mikulski

The moon landing was an extremely historic moment for the United States Of America, if the USA did not have a manned landing on the moon first and the Soviets did there might still be a cold war today.

If the health care reform bill in it's current state gets passed it will be the day when America became a more socialist nation like the Soviet Union. There will also be no more NASA as we know it, there will be cuts from the tax payer money that NASA gets to help pay for the health care reform bill.
