Gary Johnson's Surprising Stands On Social Security And Health Care
"Actually, the 2016 Libertarian Party platform goes further than a simple “reform,” to my eyes — more like an eventual abolishment.
It says the United States should “phase out the current government-sponsored Social Security system and transition to a private voluntary system.” Retirement planning, the platform says, “is the responsibility of the individual, not the government.”
Johnson has personally endorsed privatizing Social Security, too
--
People should be free to purchase health insurance across state lines.” (That last part echoes what Trump has said.)
But probe a little deeper into Johnson’s positions and the proposals verge on the radical, compared to our current health care system. He’d essentially abolish most health insurance and would eliminate any government involvement in health care.
Johnson would repeal Obamacare “in a heartbeat” if given the opportunity, he has said. “If the GOP bill lowers costs and improves care, I’ll sign it,” Johnson proclaimed in a CNN Libertarian Town Hall in June. On Joe Rogan’s podcast in May, Johnson blamed Obamacare for his health insurance premiums quadrupling “and I have not seen a doctor in three years,” he added. “I wish I didn’t have to have health insurance to cover myself for ongoing medical need.”
As president, Johnson has said, he’d balance the federal budget partly by letting states restrict eligibility for Medicaid.

I'm sorry, but that is just mindless and completely heartless.
As I stated earlier, the libertarian agenda is totally unworkable and puts money in front of the human condition.
There are some things I agree with in the libertarian platform, but taken as a whole, it's absolutely horrible, disgusting, and incredibly foolish.
There are a myriad of issues that I totally disagree with libertarians on.
AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.
In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
TTQ64 (10-17-2017)
Were these thoughts you had in your head? You just liked BAC's post showing them to be completely opposite. Like TTQ64 you don't have a clue what they stand for and what the differences are. I can find five examples of similarities between Hillary and Gary Johnson. What you two going to say then?
That's not what I said

:0) Players will continue to kneel and deal with the consequences ..
The policy says not all players will be required to be on the field during the anthem. In a sign that players were not part of the discussions, any violations of the policy would result in fines against the team - not the players. The NFL Players Association said it will challenge any part of the new policy that violates the collective bargaining agreement.
What happens if an entire team decides to stay in the locker room?
The NFL could have simply had players stay off the field until the anthem is over just as it used to be, just as it is in college.
Either way .. this is long from being over.
,, and Trump, the rich guy the NFL never wanted, can claim whatever he wants for his mindless followers. Come November, his congressional cover blows away. :0)
