Reform Called Permanent Pile Of Pollution
Listen up, President Barack Obama: Your platitudinous puffery laced with errors and constant change does nothing to allay the concerns of what Obamacare portends, other than disaster. Your vague promises have no future legal standing. Remember the Social Security Program “trust-me” promises?
Payments into the SocSec Program were promised to be fixed at only 1 percent of the first $1,400 of annual income (now it is 15.3 percent of $102,000, employee and employer combined); payments were promised into a lock boxed Independent Trust Fund (LBJ diverted the money into the general fund for Congress to spend, leaving only a pile of moldy government IOUs); payouts were never to be taxed (Clinton and Gore started taxation); and payouts were promised only for contributors (Carter initiated payouts to non-contributors). Translation, political promises are meaningless. Note that all who broke the faith were Democrats, saddling future generations with a $50 trillion unfunded liability.
Obamacare is a permanent pile of political pollution. Nothing in the Constitution warrants giving any bean-counter, bureaucratic budgeteer the power of life-or-death decisions or any other personal choice. Not your business.
Once installed, Obamacare would grow like a metasized cancer to intrude into every aspect of private life, constituting an invasive tyranny benefitting a dictatorial regime with totalitarian characteristics that you and your cronies are exhibiting with increasing clarity.

Look at the differences in Conservative in the UK and the USA. While the Conservatives in the USA reply on GDP and profts for their reason to live. Real old time conservative that I agree with still exist in the UK.
David Cameron, leader of the U.K.’s Conservative Party, has called for thinking about “general well-being” instead of just output.
this is the internet no one takes anything serious
people can argue and not harm anyone here

You wrote, “bart—What a fool you are…“
Did you just say, “Fool?“
Even though I am no longer a Christian, I remember this passage quite well:
“whosoever shall say, ‘Thou Fool,‘ shall be in danger of H**l fire.“ [Matthew 5:22]
If you actually consider yourself a Christian, and if there really is a place called H**l, we can wave at each other as we float along in the fiery lake.
Given that I am a “No Heller,“ I will borrow from your KJV once more to say that I am not one who chooses to “suffer fools gladly.” [2 Corinthians 11:19]
Bye, CS-INO!

Sure, sure.
Isn’t this response from line #34 of your “GUIDE TO CONTINUING CORPORATE CONTROL OF THE AMERICAN HEALTH DELIVERY SYSTEM?“
Try thinking for yourself at least 5 minutes per day. It could become habit forming.
your empty charges sure make you laughable, bart-
What a fool you are…
Rather than waste my time trying to debate with paid corporate hacks who copy from RNC and insurance monopoly scripts, I would rather post to the quiet but rational citizens out there.
Dad & Bart-
Looks like no one is taking either of you seriously anymore- Have a great conversation together !
It is time for the rational people out there to stop the Republicans and certain Democrats from either pushing the PUBLIC OPTION out of the health care reform bill or making it dependent on a “trigger.“
You ask, “What Trigger? Roy Rogers’ horse? The trigger on a gun?“
David Sirota’s column explains the this particular trigger, which he refers to as:
“the lobbyists’ poison pill…They are designed not as good public policy, but as devious political tactics to help dishonest lawmakers look like they support popular measures — all while guaranteeing those measures never become reality.“

Ask all your friends and relatives to call or write their representatives, senators, and the president in favor of the public option without any triggers!
Here is a video that explains the public option:

The Public Option Jim is a DEFENSIVE MOVE in hopes enough Americans will survive so on day they can kick the Central Bankers out of the USA and recliam it !
I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL but the fact remains they control the USA by controlling our money supply. The interest applied to debts makes all Americans SLAVES working for the banks !
No one who ever opposed the Central Bankers that got into a position to dhut them down lived very long. 3 were shot and one was posioned. Read up they own us and we have to play defense.
Learn from the Eroupeans who have been dealing with Central Bankers 300 years longer than Americans. The Bank of England was the first Central Bank !!!
