Strategy based on bad reasoning
The current argument from Democrats on why they can use the reconciliation process to pass health care legislation seems to be that Republicans used it before.
Either they want to be as wrong as Republicans — and they would need to apologize to their children — or it’s a good reason to do something because everyone else is doing it.
Either way, it doesn’t look good.

How about simply educating yourself on the issue? You are assuming that only Obama is addressing the issue of health care, when in fact there are Republican proposals as well as Democratic on the table.
Remember that it is Congress that creates laws, not the President. The President can create initiatives, but the President does not create laws. He only signs them into effect, or vetoes them.
This issue is getting thoroughly hashed out in Congress. At this stage there are no bills being voted on.
Instead of getting mad, it is best to educate yourself, then email your Congress representative to voice your concerns.

If a person has their own compelling reason for committing suicide it may be hard for other people to see it. But many people contemplate suicide when they are depressed, emotionally unstable (such as during a bout of mania or other mental illness,) or in shock or grief from some devastating event.
It is unwise to make a decision when one is too close to the problem, and this is especially true of a traumatic event. I hope you or someone you know doesn't make a decision while barely recovering from some horrible event. Good Luck.
