    I would have to concur with you that the 636 you mentioned do look much like a bunch of those in a Prep School with the Boys in Oxford Blue jackets and Pearl White trousers, and the Girls in Maroon jackets. They all have their distinctive school ties though.

    It is easy for one to say "...move to Canada...". I lived and worked in Canada in the early eighties before moving down here.

    Jobs are so few in Canada, at least in my humble experience, so much so that if one is lucky to find one, one would just hang on to it for life.

    Now I understand what Obama meant when he stood on the podium in the Fall of 2008 campaigning with that sign "CHANGE" underneath his chin.

    For the so-called healthcare "Reform", you will see the following CHANGE coming your way: -

    1) The life-boat that now carries the number "Insured (or paid)" will have to open up and suck in that extra 30 million "uninsured". Nothing comes from nothing. Want to know what this means?

    The waiting room in your doctor's office will be more crowdier, the time to book an appointment with your family doctor and specialist will be longer. Forget about same day appointment now.

    2) Your current dues on your healthcare cost will rise, and your inocme tax will also rise to pay for the extra load.

    So now you understand what he meant by "CHANGE".

    I hope he doesn't short-changing me again. I voted for him last year though.
