I cried also. Because the nation I love so much just elected a far
left socialist who may not even be a US citizen. Who will likely
continue the failed policies of the Clinton Regime. Tax the people,
spend on social programs. Encourage immorality and perversion.
Separate the nation with two sets of laws, one set of laws for the
powerful and the other set of laws for the proletariat.


More party talking points? Why am I not surprised? Even McCain stopped
using this .... (four letter word here). You didn't get the memo,
obviously.


Everyone wants the pie but NOBODY wants to pay for it.........we want
great health care, low deductible, everything covered and low
premium. *Ain't gonna happen. *Every new care produced in US costs about
$1200 or more.........just the fighting over whether
a given health problem is to be paid, or is work related, costs huge
sums for employers. *I'd like to see a system that covers basic
health issues - no catastrophic, no transplants, no life-style
crap.......then give workers the option of having such a plan with a
waiver for work-related stuff. *If someone wants catastrophic or work
related coverage, pay higher premium. *I read about
people in their seventies having transplants of various sorts - I don't
insist on living forever, never wanted a litter of babies,
etc. *We need more competition in healthcare? *Rubbish - that means a
lot more dollars going for advertising. *The CEO
of United Healthcare (adverts on TV every 30 seconds) made more than 120
million bucks. *They send out so much
junk mail we will need to build another landfill. *McCain wanted to tax
employer paid health plans, as goofy as it gets.
HC is going up fast and the 2500/5000 "tax credit" would soon kill off
such plans.


When you say that nobody wants to pay for it hou hit the nail on the
head. Reminds me of a neighbor who was married with two kids, a nice
consulting job, a half-million dollar home, two brand new luxury cars,
a country club membership and a very expensive boat he kept at a
marina in Galveston. He never stopped bitching about the fact that he
couldn't afford health insurance. The real fact being that he didn't
want to pay for health insurance which might cut into his money for
everthing else. People always seem to come up with money for
cigarettes, booze, gambling, and a host of other things that can
destroy their health but bitch about spending $50 for a copay.
