No one knows a damn thing about this guy. He was never given a hard question by the liberal press. He was treated with kid gloves all along the way. He was basically “appointed” president by the media and by Hollywood and all you sheep just went right along with it.

Have fun with your “Messiah.” Let’s see how he handles the pressure when the Taliban tries his ass.

Demonic and lern, you are both disgustingly selfish, why don’t you try living without health care you fucking hypocrites? I do, and I have a job, can’t fucking afford it, how about you stop being worthless piles of “supposedly” middle-class blue collar folks and try living on that “worthless” rung? Oh? No? Too comfortable? Happy sitting at the top bitching about how you want more money and things and you hate people who need help? Sorry, didn’t know.

You’re a shit sandwich Demonic, and I applaud anyone who chooses not to take a bite and ignores you, because you’re one of those shit-cakes who’s so incredibly selfish, and worse, educated, that you actually hurt the system by being in it, instead of being a malignant, ignorant pustule, no, you know full well how the system helps people who are fucked by the private sector which rules society, and you want to stop it. You’re Texas to the rest of the world that has a fucking heart, and Gosh, I can’t recall what sect of corporate society rules Texas with an iron fist.

Please do us all a favor and leave the country, try living somewhere less fortunate, and then come back and bitch about “Boo hoo my taxes are ever so slightly higher so we can have a health care system equal to that of a poor country instead of one of the worst in the world”, you do that.

Personally I find these to be self explanatory, but I’m going to summarize a few things that I find in a comparison.

Neither plan says anything about handing out insurance to some welfare person sitting on their ass not getting a job. As I see it Barack Obama’s plan centers on two major ideas.

1) The cost of health care could be severely reduced by simply eliminating unnecessary overhead. By making healthcare more streamlined and eliminating waste and other costs health care providers in turn would see a larger savings and could pass those savings along.

2) EMPLOYERS would be required to provide either: a) A health insurance plan of their choosing that met minimum requirements, or b) a pooled health insurance plan similar to the one used by government employees. This pool wouldn’t be a handout to anybody besides uninsured children (who in my opinion deserve healthcare). The pool would simply reduce the cost of healthcare to ALL and in turn allow more people to become insured.

With your BMW/Suzuki approach, consider this…Suzuki has a focus to make their vehicle available to a large range of consumers, which allows them to keep a low cost product. BMW doesn’t need the kind of volume because it focuses most of its sales on a small and wealthy target market. The rest of us can’t afford BMW’s.

Now for those families who are uneligable or cannot afford this pooled health insurance they will receive a TAX CREDIT. Sounds similar to the McCain plan only its on a more reasonable scale that will benefit those who truly need it.

And since you are so concerned with healthcare quality you should know that McCain wants insurance to be able to be obtained across state lines. This again means that Joe McRichrich can buy an extensively nice health insurance plan from California and while all the Joe’s out there do that the rest of us are shafted on coverages because the less attractive plan in state is now losing all of its business to other states.

Really a synopsis is that John McCain’s plan puts the responsibility for health care on the private market, the same private market that has put us in our current predicaments. Insurance Providers and Pharmaceuticals are enjoying record profit along with Oil companies, all because we let them do what they wanted. Unfortunately the rest of us are still paying rediculous sums of money for prescriptions, insurance, gas, etc. Oh and private market, so far its been great for the mortgage industry.

President Obama’s plan allows for the market to provide health insurance as necessary but it sets a standard of conduct and a minimum requirement for employers while providing tax credits to those who need it.

Think of it, if MORE people buy health insurance, it means the companies can lower premiums for the entire group.

On a side note, I think the major thing that was great about this election is that MOST people voted for character, and like myself didn’t even care what Obama’s ethnic background or race was. Republicans were too busy trying to make people fear him through ignorant rants that he’s a terrorist. They also say he’s a muslim despite it not being true, and if he was a muslim…it DOESN’T MAKE HIM A TERRORIST! Wow what an epiphony.

As I said in the above post, McCain’s main constituency was uneducated people and old people, most of which are also uneducated.

Glad that America was able to see past the republicans’ childish games and elect a real president for once!

However, if you’re talking the Obama side as a group, which I am, there’s absolutely no way to deny she was raked over the coals way more than is even acceptable in a presidential election. Just look how the media handled her, ignoring all political groups. It was fucking disgusting. She’s not that smart, but fuck, neither was Al Gore and nothing like what happened to Palin ever happen to him, even after his made-up global warming bullshit.

Hey, bub, here’s a clue – NONE of the politicians are on the side of people making under $250k a year, if you want to set an arbitrary number. My mostly blue-collar family has been screwed over by just about every president, regardless of political affiliation, so you’ll excuse me if I turn a bit of a jaded eye to your statement.

I’m strongly against trickle-down ecomomics, but I’m as strongly against income redistribution also. It’s an absolute bullshit policy. Why should I work 40 to 60 hours a week just to have a bunch of lazy motherfuckers who can’t be bothered to get off their asses and work take my money, that I worked for, and live off of? I seriously doubt my family back home, which is solidly lower-middle-class blue collar, will EVER see ANY of that “income redistribution.” It’s not gonna happen. The money will go, just like welfare does, to the lowest tier of absolute worthless pieces of shit in society.

The government has no fucking place “creating equality” in the finances of the people it serves. The current measures in place are already fucked up enough and hurt the middle class as it is, so why in the flying fuck would anyone in the middle class be for Obama’s “give money to people who don’t feel like working for it” plan? And fuck government-provided healthcare, too. No one’s got a “right” to that, especially not if I have to pay for their fucking hospital visits for headaches, toothaches, and stubbed toes. Read a bit up on why the healthcare situation is what it is, and maybe you’d know why people educated on the subject are totally against it. Hell, just look at Canada – they have government mandated socialist healthcare, and THEY COME TO THE UNITED STATES FOR TREATMENT. Why? Because there’s no fucking quality control in a system where ability goes out the window and people have to wait MONTHS for critical surgeries. Guess what? Just like any other fucking profession, the better doctors are going to cost more, same as a goddamn BMW costs more than a Suzuki. Why bother with being a good doctor if you get paid the exact same amount as being a worthless piece of shit doctor? Socialism tosses all personal responsibility and desire to succeed out the window in order to allow the lowest fucking classes of society their comforts.

And don’t come off with this holier-than-thou I’m smart and you’re stupid bullshit. It’s fucking pathetic. If my opinion differs from yours, fine, but to make a statement that someone is ignorant simply because they don’t follow your fucking thoughts on things is what’s created the whole fucking partisan strife bullshit to start with.

LIBERTARIANS ALL THE GOD DAMN WAY.

You seriously need to stop watching FOX News and listening to Rush Dumbo. If you actually believe that BS you obviously weren’t paying attention. Anyone in this country making less than $250K/yr has no business being a republican. They are not on your side. I’m 35, republicans have ruled for 23 of those years. On the same salary I make today my father was able to own a home and raise 3 children, there is no way I could provide that today. Why? “Reaganomics” otherwise known as trickle down theory has destroyed the middle class and created increased poverty. As it turns out when you let rich people keep more of the money, they don’t invest it and share it, they just keep it. I don’t blame rich people for that I would do the same, so it’s left to government to create equality. Does it make more sense for someone to keep a billion dollars in the bank or for our government to tax that billion at a couple more percentage points so that we can all receive healthcare? The answer seems obvious to me but I’m sure you’ll disagree. But as they say, “ignorance is bliss”.

there,
i said it
fuck him
