I do not listen to glen beck. More times than not when it comes to a logical discussion with the loony left they resort to this. Why is that? Also, have you ever considered that reducing spending would fix the budget shortfall?
Every president inherits something. Bush inherited a recession from clinton and a weakened military and an emboldened al qaeda. Your imaginary war comment is very telling.
You cant go to war because its nice to help people out. There are a million homeless people in Ohio but if i give up my paycheck to help them out then ill be homeless too. Of course there will be opposition from either party when a new president comes into play but you cannot refute that there is racism and rhetoric that is beyond anything the democratic party has put out.
Who funds the democratic campaigns?
A lot of us HAVE read the bill. Never before has the government required a private individual to buy ANYTHING before.
They actually do this. Take a look into your local ESN's and find some no-man's lands from people who did not vote to go into a fire protection district. LOL do you have ANY facts at all or do you just spew lefty rhetoric?
It's not profitable for a private company to insure you AFTER you have been inflicted with something. That's why you buy it before you need it. If everyone could just buy insurance after something happened, nobody would pay monthly for it. This is why pre-existing conditions even exist. A little logic goes a long way. A little long term planning on your dad's part would have saved him a lot of headache and money in the long run. Since the healthcare bill was passed, it has made it even LESS affordable for the rest of us.
Youve been brainwashed. The healthcare system is as corrupt as the oil business and that much is obvious. My father lost his insurance when he started his business, purchased it at an unreasonable rate after the business was up, had a heart attack and they dropped him. Now he cant get it again. If you dont work for a business that can offer healthcare, it is not affordable for the middle class. PS I was born blind in one eye, does this mean I should be denied Eye Care because I have a pre existing condition?
Because it went up after the last election overnight and he doesnt have his hands in the back pocket of all the oil companies.
One of us has... that's for sure.
Oh boy here we go.
They covered the expenses incurred from the heart attack, then did the premium/risk analysis and saw that the amount of money he paid in premiums did not meet or exceed the amount of claims. With a heart attack, it is an ongoing problem and only going to get worse with age so they saw him as a money losing scenario. It is illegal for them to charge your dad with a higher premium proportional to his risk since he is a MUCH higher risk, so they dropped him. I'm not defending them, but you have to look at it from a business perspective. This isn't unicef. They are in business to make money.
You're switching from a business is evil to a hypothetical question to me. I will ask you a question. Since the healthcare bill has required me to have healthcare, and I am in the middle class paying for my own and the healthcare bill has made my premiums go WAY up, is it safe to say that I am now partially responsible for yours and your dad's medical coverage? If we went to single payer, would I not be responsible for your coverage then? I'm paying for a portion of it obviously so am I not partially responsible for it? If you answer no, please explain how you arrived at this conclusion. If you answered yes, why exactly should I be on the hook for your bad luck? I've had a lot of things go wrong in my life and never tried to hold you accountable for it, so why is this the moral thing to do?
Yeah and that's what the Republicans are trying to change and that's why you're so pissed off that they might be taking it away from you. Your hand in my pocket is about to be removed and you're kicking and screaming.
Remind me where I said that? What logic is this comment based on?
I would argue that you're incorrect. A district can simply request to be put on the ballot for removal from the fire district. It can't be denied where I come from and if they vote passes they are out. That's anything BUT socialism pal.
That is not true. It's a lie commonly perpetrated by those that have no bearing in reality or common sense. You are required to have car insurance IF YOU DRIVE. Ask how many New Yorkers pay it. It also is not there to cover YOUR CAR. It is there to cover any damage you do to someone else's car or their body. So, there is actually NO CORRELATION between the two. You have just shown how you do not possess sound logic.
but now that it has happened again and bush isnt president shouldnt that tell us that it was never him to begin with? and if i remember right gas didnt go up after the election. it was at $1.75 at the beginning of 05
I do agree with you though, our country will surely falter if the CEOs dont get their mulit-billion dollar bonuses each quarter.
We live in a 3rd world country? We have socialized institutions for the greater good of the society. Healthcare is as important as being able to buy food from the grocery store. Premiums should go up for folks who have issues but not to the extent that they are now. I shouldnt have to pay 40k for 20k of service, and in any case if I have an emergency Im not going to be denied the emergency room. so youll pay for it one way or the other.
So lets deny people the right to reasonable healthcare and watch the middle class decline into the squalor that is every other 3rd world country without a healthcare system.
LOL
Healthcare was on the ballot and it passed, thats anything but socialism pal.
Legally Im not required to drive but in order to function in society I must drive a car. I am required to carry insurance on my car when I drive it. Sure I have the option to ride a horse to work but thats not reasonable either.
Youre an idiot for assuming that I was talking about a presidential election. When youre president has ties to oil companies and Saudi Oil Guru's hes gonna take some heat, just //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif whether responsible or not. I think Obama would take the same heat if he were to do the same things.
