we are swimming in stupid over here. public schools get no money, churches are tax exempt. pretty lame, huh?

Lunatics on the right are stronger though. I've always had a sneaky admiration for the republicans' "fuck you we're doing this anyway" attitude. Repubs say "more insanity!" and the dems respond with "oh okay then a little more insanity if we must..."

Then the dems get a landslide majority and don't know what to do with it. Sad really. Sad that the only people who know how to use power in America are evil.

The ironic thing is that Cenk's remarks are not that far from the reasoning of the teabaggers. A hopelessly corrupt organization like the U.S. government should not inject itself into the private sector.

The American people are nitpicking over BS differences in 2 political parties while the banksters are taking all our money and personal choice for generations to come.

Obama hasn't shown a birth certificate - why should he be transparent on any issue?

[alaynak123]

The fact that we do not deny care at the ER is a big part of the problem. Instead of offering preventative care, which would prevent the need for the uninsured to clog the ER systems, we let them get to the point of NEEDING care to survive, and costing exponentially more. And since they cant get a checkup at their regular doctor, they show up at the ER thinking its a heart attack when its indigestion or something completely minor.

Healthcare crap? More like healthcare gold! Just read about the public option from an unbiased source and you will see it is not the crap that you claim it is.

I would agree if not for the fact that the U.S. does not "damn the poorest". Under the current system, no individual will ever be denied any sort of necessary health care.

I might be way off base here, so correct me if I am wrong, but what you seem to want is for the federal government to decide the rates which should be charged for optional services offered by the private sector, and then force everybody else to pay for these optional services if somebody cant afford them.
