It would appear that our Affordable Care Act is in jeopardy after listening to the majority of conservative justices on the Supreme Court.


I hate to repeat this again, but we are still the only industrialized country that does not cover all their citizens with health care. Unforgivable, that this wealthiest nation on earth provides subsidies, tax breaks and unlimited power to the wealthiest Americans, but very little or nothing to the middle and lower classes.


Sadly, these are the same justices who ruled in favor of corrupting our government even further with Citizens United, calling corporations persons. This ruling once again serves the 1 percent that allowed the big corporations to buy their politicians.


Justice John Stevens so aptly put into words: Corporations have no conscience, no beliefs; no feeling; no thoughts; no desires, and they themselves are not members of "we the people" by whom and for whom our Constitution was established.


Without affordable health care, what will happen? We know the Republican Party has no reasonable answers; besides they have not reformed anything in many decades.


Without Medicare, this country would not be a great nation, because the middle-class would no longer exist. One major sickness and you are wiped out — that's a real fact and very scary. The Affordable Care Act would extend benefits of health care to people who are not old enough to qualify for Medicare — and, at the same time, reduce our federal deficit.

While I believe the mandate to purchase is onerous I believe it is also necessary. Medicare premiums make Medicare viable and Medicare is for all practical purposes absolutely the best thing to happen for American senior citizens since Social Security. The Patients Protection and Affordable Care Act will prevail as this latest assault is only concerning the mandate and even then our congress can re-write in more iron-clad language some method for sustaining coverage and premium collections. The pukes are dancing on thin ice already. I strongly encourage them to stomp a little harder.
 
We are squeezed by rising health care costs.

The Right has offered nothing since Mittzie's MassCare, which Righties apparently regard as an albatross around his neck.

The Tea-rorists that infest the House will never allow any remediation.

The Tea-rorists will not be around to keep good laws from happening forever or even much longer, my friend. Majorities change like the wind in the congress for a damned good reason. These latest outrages on the parts of the pukes and even some of the more dependably sensible conservatives ascertains many Democratic victories this fall.

I have no problem with electing reasonable people to Congress. The Tea Party has lost popularity with the public and their business backers. We'll see if the voters clean House.

Even FauxNooz knows what a hard time is about to happen for the rightwingers. Their present power is ONLY concentrated in their present numbers in congress. That is changing big time in November. For certain.

The big money is still on the Republicans, though, isn't it? And moderates like Senator Snowe has despaired of saving the party from the clutches of Righties and the 1%.

The corporations are certainly tending rightwing but don't they always do that? I think it's their way of rubbing it in the noses of those making under $100,000 a year but still vote puke to somehow preserve their piece of the proverbial pie in the sky. Church works thee same way, eh?

No coincidences. Move along, nothing to see here. These are not the droids you are looking for.

So much of this is bluster. Health care reform that includes an individual mandate, a single payer system (either public or a public/private system) and cost controls will happen. Rising costs will assure that. The conservative ideologues, if they chose to over rule the individual mandate of the PPACA, can't live forever as as cost continue to rise to an excess of 20% of GDP and access to care continues to decrease demand for change will mount. Overtime either a compromise will be reached that implements these principles that will satisfy conservative ideologues on SCOTUS or, as they retire, they will be replaced by jurist who dissent from their views. Eventually health care reform will happen.

Genuine reform is only months away. This will not linger for another 100 years like it did before. The people deserve better than what came out of the PPACA as you acronym. Single payer all the way next time and when it sinks in people will fight anyone and especially government that tries to adversely affect it. I mean, some people think Social Security is some kind of a damned government program don't you know?

The rest of the world just doesn't understand the US attitudes that health care is a commercial commodity when they consider it a human right.
