Thanks for the confirmation that I hit the nail right on the head, maroon.

Not forgetting that it all. And not happy with them not doing it. But the issues have been the same from the beginning. A program that was not meant to succeed, submitted by one party and jammed down the throats of the other party even using bribes to get one party vote and victory. Then lying to the American people as it was enforced. It was never a health plan, but a tax plan to stick it to those who could afford it and even those who could barely afford it, just to give it to the freeloaders of America. Socialism at its best, which is the worst plan for America. Now the Republicans can't get repeal and replace through. They are just a few votes shy and the American people need to tell those that won't go for repeal to straighten up or get out or we will throw them out. Then we need a panel of Republican and Democrats, without the extremists as I have proposed several times on here in the past. A bill that has Capitalism as its goal instead of Socialism. Competition in insurance with all companies to be able to have multiple plans available across state lines and may the best prevail. Competition is actual medical services, from individual doctors and various health care providers, to clinics and hospitals and research centers. Employer provided to individual plans and group plans and union plans all working for the best plan for their people in fair competition. VA stays special for Veterans, but offer outside care when necessary of due to backlogs. Medicare and Medicaid getting back to what they were designed to beCare for the elderly backed by the Government and care for the children and people with special issues in Medicaid, backed by the government. And these programs will have to have higher taxes along with paying longer for the wealthier and other provisions like means tests. Everybody gives up a little and pays a little more. And the States become the primary overseer of these plans and the Feds stay out of it accept the VA.

I've gone on long enough. There are a million details and to much to itemize them all here. But it must be based on competition so costs will be reduced, and protection for those that are insured. State oversight of the insurance companies so they live up to there commitments and suitably financed. Businesses in competition will cut costs and improve overall, better then bureaucrats anytime it is done.

cheers

You DO know this is not 1932, right?

kemmer

You have a peculiar sense of self-justification, I find. 🙄

Bernie Sanders is not a Democrat, he's a Socialist, so he was not cheated out of shit. If he wants to run as a Democrat, he has to join the party, otherwise he's nothing but a pain in the ass. Why didn't you idiots let Gary Johnson run on the Republican ticket. See the difference? What the hell is a maroon?

kemmer

Haven't you ever seen 1940ish Bugs Bunny cartoons?

I think you have explained it so ever body should be able to understand. One more illustration, take grocery stores to make a point. The store with the best price for what a person needs gets the business. The stores that fail to do that will fail or have a smaller piece of the pie.

Bernie ran under the Democratic banner without realizing what the Republicans have know all along. The Democrats are not an ethical group. That was put in full view during this last election primary.

kemmer

Republicans ragging on Dems for being "unethical" generates gales of contemptuous laughter--after the way GOP-controlled states instituted voter restrictions within 48 hours of the SCOTUS gutting the Voting Rights Act.

Louie27 Loc: Peoria, AZ

How has the SCOTUS gutted the voting rights act? Give date of that act being gutted and what was removed from the act, as you say. How has anyone been prevented from voting by having to have a valid ID. That is needed where ever one has to bank, cash a check, pay a bill or many other things that are an everyday occurrence. Sorry I forgot, the Dems need illegals, dead people and people making multiple votes.

kemmer

Thank you. Now I understand you really don't know what's going on in the country. I suppose you believe Trump lost the popular vote to 3 million illegals voting. Currently 4 states are having their voter restrictions declared unconstitutional and districts redrawn. Thus 4 TX GOP Representatives are likely to lose their seats in 2018.

Louie27 Loc: Peoria, AZ

I also believe that if some districts had been redrawn to facilitate an advantage to a certain political group those areas should be redrawn in a way that would be legally binding. How do you know the GOP representatives would not be chosen again? That is just your hypotheses, not a foregone conclusion. I am one that is not on board with Trump losing because of three million illegals voting. We will see where that ends when all of the states submit to a check of their voter rolls. It has been proven that many dead people are still on the voter rolls and that needs to be investigated if they voted in the last number of elections. I do not hide from facts but you have not given any facts to support you position.

kemmer

So far 43 states have refused to send the absurd and dangerous voter info to that snake Kris Kobach & that bogus "voter integrity" scam.

3jack

Makes no difference what he ran under, he's an admitted socialist and is a registered Independent, so he deserved no status in the Democratic Party......period.

kemmer

But, happily, he votes with the Dems.
