This is one topic that I completely agree with Ron Paul on while disagreeing with the president, that being the ever growing, tax draining monster called health care. The republicans didn't replace Obama care with a better plan because there is no better plan. Both parties have this belief in their heads that health care is the responsibility of the federal government because health care is a right.
It is not, and under the constitution, it was never meant to be. The monster in the room will continue to grow and it's hunger for tax dollars will never cease because health care is supposed to be a right of the people.
The president should spend his term in office finding ways to slow down the growth of the monster and save billions of dollars doing it such as making cuts to both medicare and Medicaid whenever possible.
Wow. Look who showed up. Welcome.I disagree basic affordable health care is a right. Not specialized care, basic care. A democratic government for & by the people has every right to have a basic system of care for & by the people that is cheap universal and accountable.
It's not complicated. Our heath care system is ran by the middle man, insurance. They should not have so much power, period. I have no problem paying into a government that is neutral and even for all basic care of fellow citizens. That is a universal foundation of basic care. Like every other modern nation in the world, except us.
Wow. Look who showed up. Welcome.
If the "free market" is such an altar of positivity for health care, then how come the American rate of general welfare of it's people regarding medical care was NOT number one among industrial nations BEFORE Obamacare? Or did the testimony of Peelo and Potter mean nothing to you?

The Democrats won over the black vote by passing the Civil Rights Act. Maybe Republicans should stop being a bunch of racist white supremacists, pass a new civil rights act, then maybe blacks would vote for you again. Until then fuck off.
If you care as much as you claim, why do you have to wait on the government to tell you to fund it for someone else. If you cared, wouldn't you simply provide it without have to be told? What you express is the basic concept of bleeding heart Liberals. Claim you care and support others being forced what you won't do yourself.
Hey. Yeah found you guys last night.
In other words pander to the blacks like LBJ? If they want to stay on the Democrat plantation for the next 200 years like LBJ said he'd have them doing, go for it. It's worked on wonderfully for them so far. Highest unemployment of any group. Highest bastard birth rate of any group. An average 85 IQ. Highest proportional incarceration rate of any group. 1 in every 3 1/2 on food stamps. Democrats have done a lot for blacks since LBJ said "I'll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years". Damn if they didn't oblige him.
Good to see you, crow.
That convoluted crap made no sense. NOW we wait for private insurance to tell anyone whether they are funded or not and for how much, period. I guess you like middle men getting between you and your doctor telling everyone what you can & can't have done. Wow. What is 'waiting on the government? The United States government is made of US. We elect those accountable to US. If they are not we vote them out. Sorry but I have no problem paying into a system that I can make accountable. I can't make private insurance, especially private insurance conglomerates that game a state so they are the only one and I can't go to another form of insurance. I can't make them accountable. I can make a peoples government accountable. If you think that is bleeding heart, good. It's also called fucking democracy. Sorry I don't abide authoritarian assholes, guess you do.
Thanks! Good to see you too. Good to see many old names around here.
Thought I'd lost y'all.
Are you aware that the percentage of blacks voting Democrat increased significantly when comparing before it was claimed to have been said versus after?
Apparently you missed the part about how having done so has worked out so well for blacks when it comes to unemployment, education, income, incarceration, bastard births, and all sorts of other categories where they fall behind other groups.
Whose sock are you, asshole?
Actually it's not correct, who's is a contraction of who is or who has and is not a possessive, whose is the correct word.A better question would be who's sock you are? Note the proper grammar.
