*PC ALERT*

the point of my reply was 2 say that every 1 pays for free (i.e., inadequate) health care, especially the poor. everybody has to buy health insurance because doctors are evil, greedy capitalist pigs who dont care. but democrats CARE. HillaryCAREs. & that's why democrats are known for being so thrifty. Al Gore only owns 3 homes & 1 gulfstream, & Obama only eats $100-per-pound beef on special occasions. why? because they CARE

(or should I say "CAIR"?)

How the fuck do we get free health care??

only lazy ass mother fuckers get the health care

and us working people have to pay for them lazy mother fuckers!!!!!

[BaineB43]

we've been addressing the cost of health care since 1965. the more we address the problem, the worse it gets. health care costs rise from 5% to 15% GDP

now, as the feds pour $100's of billions into a bottomless abyss, the private sector has pledged to cut $2T in health care spending

Q: wtf does health care spending do, if not PROVIDE HEALTH CARE???? if they cut $2T in spending, aren't they cutting $2T worth of health care?

•The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775 You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.

•Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.

•Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.

•War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.

•Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.

•Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.

•The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.

@StrengthFromAbove83 Even though your idea aligns along with my personal beliefs, I don't think the government cannot just wash its hands off that easily. I think this is a matter we should question ourselves about what kind of a government we want in our country.

Hobbs and Locke might help us a bit in defining that.

@jerzy862 you r nut case.This guy Keyes is so much smarter than this guy Obama. The media wanted Obama for Senate.

[jerzy862]

Keyes sounds like Kermit the frog

[StrengthFromAbove83]

Food as medicine! What a novel idea! lol Alan Keyes is right on the money. Obama is a socialist (as he admits in his books).

[StrengthFromAbove83]

@BaineB43 short answer. no.  People need to learn to save their money for emergencies. It is YOUR responsibility to take care of yourself, not the government's.

Keyes is a real smart black american...obama..not

[acmna]

@BaineB43 One of the ballooning cost of healthcare is due to government interference. If it weren't for the money that insurance companies and government pump into the healthcare system, the cost of healthcare would be much lower. I'll use an analogy, if your at an auction and everyone is bidding on a good, then someone comes along and each gives you 1,000 dollars, will you start bidding the same amount, or jack the price up higher?

obama is a theater chick

[yeshiva83]

He gestures bizarrely.

[MrBinieam]

Alan keyes by far the winner.
