Insurers ostensibly exist to share risk among similar people. This benefits all participants by giving them a means to spread the cost of random maladies among many people, and over time.
Unfortunately, insurers do a poor job of this. They have expanded coverage to include routine healthcare and illnesses that are the direct result of individual choice. Today, health insurers mostly subsist on people’s irrational fears, special tax benefits and the fact that they are subsidized by employers.
@haveu4rgotten,
Further all curriculum is decided by the Dept. of Education according what is to be taught & how it is to be taught to young minds. this is to much power by 1 agency. Guess what? Do you know who had most control over this entity since the 60′s when it was created? If you guessed Democrats you win the prize.
They also currently behind to support of the indoctrination of our kids Sept 8, 2009 through obama’s speech. I wish people would wake up.
@haveu4rgotten,
I also would like to add the need to seriously abolish the Dept. of Education. They run the teachers unions and have terribly messed up our education system by grading on a curve passing ones who really shouldn’t pass. What needs to happen is the schools need to be run by each individual state. This is another prime example how the federal government has grown to powerful since President FDR.
@ 2manymuthauckas,
Good Eric Clapton!
How can I argue your statement? Point being I much rather see a real serious start to either tort or insurance reform. How about both? Both parties are afraid to even go there. Don’t you think logically that would be the best thing for all Americans to make health care truly more affordable? Instead of more government bureaucracy that you know will only continually expand beyond the realms of sustainability to all. Just like Social Security, Medicare.
i am still waiting for someone to give me an answer what do health insurance companies do what purpose do they serve why do we need them
even with tort reform insurance companies do not do the right thing their are 5 states with caps and the insurance have not come down on rates
“These jokes want to hurt this guy’s business because they disagree with his opinion”
Yeah – Whole Foods charges a premium because they sell a progressive lifestyle. People who pay extra food to “feel good” about doing whatever for whoever are not going to take kindly to that kind of a statement. Is it ironic? Nope – don’t bite the hands that feed you. Why do you think WalMart doesn’t run around talking about gay marriage or other social issues…
Smartasswhip has severe emotional issues maybe? I really hope she fights off her demons. Whatever her problems are obama care nor cap and tax will not solve her obvious inner self problems. She needs to quit lashing out when presented facts she can’t contest.
I wish I could bet she hates GOD and Rush Limbagh to win the Powerball. What a payday.
Smartasswhip PLEASE ! open your eyes honey! It is no longer Public Option and now the Public Enemy #1
Yeah, you’re right SaveRepublic, Smartassawhip does have her head in the sand. Everytime I confront her with facts against the public option she either ignores or questions their accuracy, even though the truth is obvious. Then of course, she resorts to her name-calling. I agree with you about tort reform; we can save billions of dollars if this is done right.
Have you heard that liberals are boycotting Whole Foods because the CEO wrote an op-ed opposing the public option for health care? Is this pathetic or what! These jokes want to hurt this guy’s business because they disagree with his opinion. All they’ll do is hurt his employees and customers. Here’s how ironic and stupid this is: the CEO is an Independent and has helped many liberal causes. They’re pulling the same crap against Tyson Chicken. Check out Smartassawhip’s channel for more B.S. info.
Thanks rationalnow,,
I’m sorry for smartasswhip committing herself to all that lying propaganda. Unfortunately she is only one of the many who have their head stuck in the sand. Government run health is not the answer. One real answer is tort reform.
Another fine example why she will never know prosperity.
Sorry will only lead a horse to water.
You got to drink on your own and go tune in Rush’s radio show or even his website.
Read, Read and read or listen listen and listen for a period of time and not just 1 or 2 days and you will see he is not what ABC, NBC, MSNBC and CNN portray.
Really…………….when?
Hey Savior20061,
How are you sir?
Thanks for your care to comment.
I hate it when the left generalize Rush Limbaugh is only for Republicans.
If any would listen he bashes both parties.
If the Democrats really want a project that would help this nation how about fixing the school system that you fucked up. Yes you fucked up. It has been broked for years. What the hell is the NEA for. They spend their time defending teachers many that should not be or they are providing votes to the DNC. You guys talk about our standing in the world re: HC but how about standing in education we have kids that cant read cant add and families that dont give a shit. Fix that leave my HC alone.
President Obama may have fooled the American people once, but this time it’s not working. Average American citizens all across America are exercising their First Amendment right, voicing their opinion in opposition! His BS may of worked in Chicago but not here. It is taking some time but soon he will need to answer why so many of his friends are profiting off of this bill. I personally would like to know why he secured 2 billion for a off shore drilling in Brazil did George Soros profit????????
I love it when conservatives of all people make generalizations about others. =D
I pulled my other comment as I said some vulgar things unnecessary ….
Smartasswhip:
Nothing could be further than the truth about me being a know it all. You are correct I have a vanity page. I just started it but of course like any typical liberal only half the truth is told.
I don’t feel at this point I have to work as hard as you according to latest polls. It does seem you better come up with a new theme for your page. Hey I got one for you! Liberals Loose Public Option! That has got a ring to it.
All you’ll be doing is hurting his employees and customers. Don’t you people believe in free speech? Do you want this public option crap so much that you’re willing to destroy everyone even your own party to get it? This is crazy! I hope you wackos leave Evan Bayh alone; he’s one the few decent Democrats left. If that crook Obama hadn’t stolen the nomination from Hillary, Bayh would be vice-president now instead of that incompetent idiot Biden. You should chill out on your hate and compromise.
I’ve always treated you with respect and never did any of the name-calling that you’ve done. I’ve kept in contact with you just for fun; I knew I’d never change your beliefs. But now I’m concerned about you. The info on your channel about the CEO of Whole Foods is wrong. He is an Independent and has helped liberal causes for years. This boycott of his business is pathetic. All he did is write an op-ed saying he didn’t like the public option for health care and you want to hurt his business.
Whatever makes you sleep better. I am ignoring you for the same reason I always ignore you. You are an idiot.
I noticed you conveniently ignored my statement about what Steny Hoyer said and the gigantic deficit level. Anyone who says the public option won’t ultimately cost hundreds of billions perhaps trillions of dollars is LYING!
The only reason people are subscribing to your videos is because they can’t believe the incredible crap you keep adding to your favorites’ list! Where do you find this B.S.?
Don’t thank us for helping your cause. In the latest polls support for public option has tanked!
Hey SaveRepublic,I couldn’t help but notice the irony of the posts Smartassawhip made to you. Everything is about her, when I’ve confronted her about how Democrats played the race card against the Clintons and McCain/Palin she said she never saw it and made it about her alleged personal attacks. She pulled the same B.S. when I told her about Pelosi and Dems. calling town hall protesters Nazis, thugs, Un-American, etc. she claimed she’d been called names too. Always making it all about herself!
Actually I can tell you that when I put stupid people who make stupid comments like the one your buddy did in their place it does help my cause. Today alone I have gotten 23 new subscribers. These are people who want to know what is going on and they are just as sick of the crap you guys keep trying to sell as I am. Your stupidity helps my cause more than anything I could possibly do or say.. so Thank you. I guess I owe you that much. lol
