No one thinks it's "ok to be unfair". But you must have read my statement there is no such thing as an entirely fair legislative act, one of the few things I don't think anyone could disagree with. After careful consideration and some effort to quantify the unfairness of the union member provision you cited, my conclusion was that is trivial by comparison to the fairness that can be achieved by the overall legislation.

I respect your opinion, but this is a bill that nobody knows how we will pay for (or uses that famous "approximate")...but thats ok. It exempts certain states for political purpose and you gotta wonder how good this is if being exempt will buy your vote...but thats ok. It is a bill, that you can believe it or not will ADD costs to those who most cannot afford it....but thats ok. It is a bill conceived in deciet..remember all the promise about how we could ALL see on CPAN who was getting what.....but thats ok.
And you know what.....it does NOT address health care ! But all of that is ok !
PS: There are other things that you my think are insignificant or trivial that I just didnt include ! In addition, if I understand the polls the majority of Americans dont want this health care bill passed (Gallup does show 49 but the rest are low 40's or 30's) Now that always elicits the comment...and I can almost see you typing this......those who oppose JUST DONT UNDERSTAND.....but of course we will never be able to as it is all top secret and will be rammed through at first opportunity !
