At the beginning of hearings on the health care legislation, Single Payer wasnt even considered. Physicians and nurses who wanted to testify werent even allowed to say boo. It was ruled "off the table" by Pelosi. Obama gave zero support. I'm glad I saw through Obama as just another Bush/McCain and voted for Nader.
Ever hear Thom rant about Hemsley, Ceo of United Health? (largest insurer in the U.S.). "Gangsters in suits"? Check out United`s income statement, available from many stock sites. Do the math of revenues divided by after tax profits. You get 3.7%. So, if your policy is $500, the companies profit is $18.50. The average U.S. corporation`s profit is 5%.
Libs hate the US, feel helpless, hopeless. Its no fun listening to this guy. Rush is funnier than hell.
The radio business is a BUSINESS. If Thom had as many people interested in listening him as Rush, he WOULD be on the outlets. If I believed Thom, I would go sit in a tub of warm water, drink a couple of martinis and slit my wrists.
This guy has more integrity in his little finger than Rush has in his entire body! I know you don't speak for me when you say libs hate America, are you really that gullible seriously? Who told you that Drudge report or Fox news?
See Thom in his own you tube video, "Thom is challenging Wayne Root - Economics that Libertarians and conservatives don`t understand". Around 5min 20 secs Thom says that as a businessman, he is able to "zero out" his taxes at the end of the year. His guest asks :"that`s good, isnt it?" Thom replies, "it`s totally good". He rants against the rich, complains they dont pay enough taxes, yet is totally happy he doesnt. Rush`s words are the same as his actions.
If I sat in a church for 20 years with a preacher preaching in favor of the KKK, or skinhead views, wrote about this preacher as someone I was close to in my book, married my wife and me, would you vote for that?? Obama has plenty of awful friends. Havent you heard Obama overseas, bashing the U.S.? You dont hear ANY other world leader trashing their own country. How about the Nazi`s, British, French imperialism? Japan`s rape of Korea?
Look around your home, get rid of everything made by a corporation. Look in your garage too. Look in your medicine cabinet, and throw out all the meds you need from Big Pharma. Go and turn off the gas, the electricity too while you are at it. Go and brew your next beer, do it in a wood bucket you make yourself, out of wood you carve with a dull rock. Lonesome? Send a smoke signal. Hungry? Plant some popcorn and wait. Entertainment? make shadow figures om the wall. Use a candle you made,
LOL! You repiglicans R so either black or white! What's next, the slippery slope fallacy? My beef is with the Oilygarchy for ythe most part & Wall Street. Reagonomics failed except for the rich and shameless, you know the ones who get rich from enslaving the population and starting wars all over the planet using our military! I think U R more likely to be in that allegorical Cave!
What if all the progressives and real democrats voted against this bill and all the bluedogs, DINO's and pugs voted for it. Which is what is really going on behind the kabuki masks. Nothing is ever as it appears especially in Washington. The pugs have to be able to blame the Democrats for this pile of crap
What if all progressives voted for quality 3rd party candidates in force and forgot all about this notion that we just have to compromise enough, and somehow, our agenda will be enacted? The whole health care process has been one "compromise" after another, always favoring, more and more, monied interests, and the give-backs have all come from us. And how do we express our outrage? Why, we just keep voting for corporate candidates and hope that magically they will forget where the $ came from.
Average health insurance company profit is less than 5%. Got a $600 policy? $30 profit. Check out a stock site and check the corp you desire. Arithmetic will be necessary though.
they won't bring the draft back -- too many rich people's kids would get nailed with that. But hey, if the jobs keep disappearing for the middle class the government will have a whole new level of desperate cannon fodder to draw from.
DOD statistics, 25% of enlisted recruits from the richest 20% of the population, 11% from the poorest 20%. Rich kids go in the military over twice the rate as the poor. This is the place for rich haters to go, isnt it?
I dont know how many. I do know that McCain and Bush`s daddy were shot down though. As for front line grunts, are you implying that being a "grunt" is the only noble way to serve? If a person has an education, leadership skills, able to pilot, etc, that it is better to waste those skills and be a "grunt"? Using your logic, people with a Doctor`s education should be receptionists. Would that make health care better? You are angry for a reason. Look in the mirror to find it.
3 of John McCain`s kids were in the military, 1 in Iraq. 25% of enlisted recruits come from richest 20% of the population, 11% from the poorest 20%. So, children of rich parents are more than twice as likely to volunteer as the poor. You "assume" only a poor person would fight and die. Southerners are also much more likely to volunteer. DOD info.
Do Americans want the world of 1984? The draft is next I guarantee it as they have no intention of ending either war as there is too much money being made. Obama is going to reinstate the patriot act.
The panty bomber has struck. You can see by Obama`s change of tone, that he sees his administration going down the toilet. He is like you, but knows the public will not stand for being attacked in this way. He will fight, or lose power. 1 large attack, and Americans will want blood, and will look at him as the weak child he is.

How many of these "rich" kids serve as front line grunts? It is more likely they are handed a cushy officers post as it has always been.
But then that is the funny thing about "statistics".
