It is misconception to equate government action with handing things to people, and especially to equate it to conditions in Russia. For example, sticking with health care the main goal is not to hand things to people but to restrain the power of the insurance companies. This is to allow working people to buy health care coverage which actually provides the coverage they are paying for without the current risks of being dropped when they get sick and having claims denied. Most cases of bankruptcy in this country are among working people who are screwed by their insurance companies. This is the type of fulfillment which conservatives give people to look forward to and liberals are working to correct. Shari,
