| Message | Madam Speaker: Can the Radical Alliance, a so called "Centre-Left" party explain why they have voted against this bill? In my experience only those in the centre-right category do not support Single Payer healthcare. The Radical Alliance proposed a bill to provide non-emergency elective abortion for FREE, yet they vote against this bill which would provide other much more necessary services to the General Public for free. Where is the logic in that? Lucas Hentze wishes to run for the Presidency, but how could anyone support a party that flip-flops opinions constantly and is highly hypocritical? The Radical Alliance ought to get their views straight, otherwise they will NOT have our support in the up-coming election. Furthermore, Madam Speaker, I am truly growing weary of politicians voting against legislation without giving a reason or trying to negotiate amendments. How can anything be accomplished by this house if no compromise ever exists? To the parties that have so far voted against this bill I ask: Why? What about providing high quality health care to all citizens do you disagree with? Is there some other thing that you feel is a more pressing area than healthcare? If so, then what? Madam Speaker, I think I can answer that for the Radical Alliance. This is the party that proposed massively increasing Trade and Finance spending, while attempting to cut Defense and Foreign Affairs. I believe that it is obviously shown where the Radical Alliances allegiance stands. It is NOT with the people, but the corporations. I cannot begin to describe to you Madam Speaker, how disappointed I am in this house for failing to serve the public. Truly disgusted. |
