| In my opinion nothing is wrong with having a social safety net. The safety net helps people in their time of need. Includes people with disabilities and people just down on their luck. In economic turn-downs a good social safety net pumps good money into the economy. Yes, you will get people who'll ... |

| On the V.A issue the main reason I give it a thumbs down is the waiting period for new veterans. Not to mention the hassle (for even badly disabled people) to get pensions they deserve. Dispersing travel pay to patients as well as timely payments to hospitals and doctors outside the V.A network is a... |

| Why do people always pull race card when someone criticizes Obama. People have been criticizing politicians for the longest time. Regardless of skin color. |

| I never said anything about the V.A Health System being any good. Being as my Dad, my GF's mom and my Uncle get care from the V.A I speak the contrary. There are many different Socialized health systems and the V.A is the worst of them. You can't compare a poorly-run, incompetent system with a well-... |

| For old people or people with certain illnesses yes. However someone killing themselves just because "their life sucks" is not a good enough excuse. Under severe depression I thought of killing myself. However I'm glad I didn't considering people do love me. There is no guarantee there is a god or a... |

| Even if Obama's Birth Certificate was forged. How do you know that other presidents didn't have forged certificates. People just make an issue of it because a]don't like Obama's middle man b) don't like his skin color c] his father was born in Kenya d] he's not a right-wing extremist e]all of the ab... |

| If that means a country uses tax dollars to guarantee everyone has healthcare than I am for it. If it means the government runs the hospitals than I'm for it. Socialism isn't a bad thing America, works well in Denmark. Denmark is the most developed country in the world with its Healthcare, $20 Minim... |

| Driving a particular vehicle just to appear masculine is totally messed up. Just because you can afford to drive a 600 HP land barge on steroids doesn't make it a good choice. Unless you are doing lots of towing or hauling lots of people and cargo I see no use for anything larger than a sedan or ha... |

| Sure Americans have short memories. Look at how the tea party and the radical rigth of the Republican party has deified Ronald Reagan. Almost everything they say about him as a severely uncompromising conservative is imagined, refusing to admit that he in fact had raised taxes, worked across the ai... |

| That's another thing to touch base on. People who buy vehicles they can't afford the gas for. (Or if they do they b***h and moan and mooch gas money off others.) I actually knew someone who drives 100 miles round-trip each day to school for a few years. ( Unemployed while at it.) In 2011 he buys a 4... |

Gas Prices- When gas prices (where I was at) were around a dollar in the late 90's and early 2000's people wh... |
