    I also have a supplemental Healthcare Insurance that I also pay for monthly, that would help to pay for most everything else that Medicare does not cover, should I ever need to rely on that.

    I have ignored you Republicans for years that have called Medicare and Social Security "Social" welfare programs- since I began paying for my SS at the age of 15 years of age, while you Republicans have threatened to end the Medicare system all of my lifetime. Which BTW- is the reason why I totally vote only Democrat, and have voted that way since the 70's because of the continual threat by the Republicans to end Social Security and Medicare. Keeps me voting Democrat!

    Have I even utilized any of the Medicare or Supplemental Insurance since I have been retired for the last 3 years? No! Not really, as I have only had a couple of annual checkups that Medicare paid a couple of hundred dollars on, each time total.

    I am lucky to be in great health, and I haven't had to rely on Medicare for anything as of yet.
    Imagine the plan that you could have got in the market.

    Half the money goes to insurance company profits so you pay double for the same healthcare.

    Conservatives want the freedom to make the decision themselves, which is to say, freedom from social responsibility.
    Nobody is entitled to freedom from social responsibility nor should anybody be allowed to have it.

    If your parents dragged you kicking and screaming into this horseshit shit world, you have social responsibility, like it or not.
    Live with it or kill yourself. If you want to kill your parents first, that's your call.
    No, the best way is the way that I do it, a high deductible plan with very low premiums, and I pay for health maintenance out of pocket. The money I save funds the emergency account and that covers the deductible. All my insurances are like that: car, house, professional liability.

    If it's so good, why are we forced to contribute to it?

    Nobody likes paying up the ass for their healthcare except the wealthy.
    Biden will not be the candidate no matter how hard the "Never Trumpers" and corporate run media push for it and pretend he is doing well. Progressives will win the day.

    Castro stands out because all he ever does is attack people. He dismantled Beta is the last debate, and attacked Uncle Joe in this debate. He would probably appear less imposing if he had to start talking about policy proposals and defend them.

    He's doing terribly, but, he only needs to do well enough to maintain his lead. It helps that he gets to share a stage with the likes of Bernmaster Sandy, Pocahontas, Kamalafari, Alfred E. Neuman, Spartacus, Beta, and a few other clowns too unimportant to deserve their own nicknames.

    Most Americans are in line with Liberal policies whether they are aware of it or not. Uncle Joe is a nice guy but his day has come and gone and he is too old school establishment. No one will be energized by Biden and the left has very qualified and vibrant alternatives. He will not be the candidate.

    Most Americans Are Liberal, Even If They Don’t Know It

    Biden is a loser. He's been installed to block Bernie. Billary robbed Bernie of the presidency. The establishment fears Bernie.

    Who's quote is that?

    I'd wait nominating for the "Smithsonian consideration for the dumbest post" award. Not all liberals are awake yet to show their stupidity.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Technically you are correct, Democrats are NeverTrumpers. But Republicans aren’t the reason Biden currently leads in the polls. Look at your fellow democrats on this board who are moderates for the reason.

    "View" co-host Abby Huntsman ripped into how Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., presented himself during the third Democratic primary debate on Thursday.

    "Bernie looked like he crawled out of a garbage can last night," Huntsman said on Friday's episode of "The View."
