No, actually numbers and details ARE important.

let me get this straight. it's more important to you to know whether it's 20k or 40k than to prevent lots of people from dying. at any rate, it doesn't matter who you read, it's more than 9/11.


But how many people are dying because the ACA isn't universal healthcare but rather a gift to the insurance companies, forcing people to buy their plans, without really giving them a means to pay for the high deductibles and copays that often come with the plans?

In accepting this pathetic and dysfunctional version of healthcare reform (maybe it should really be called the ""health insurance company profit protection act" rather than the "affordable care act") aren't you playing the same kind of numbers game?

When they proposed the ACA, I thought it would be a steaming pile of congress, and it basically is, but no matter how much they tried, it does help some people.

We should have a single payer system.

More idiot celebrities displaying Trump Derangement Syndrome and demanding that people listen to them:

(Is there a way to embed Vimeo videos here?)

If Trump supporters had wanted to design an ad to illustrate the smug elitism of the Hollywood-Industrial Complex, they wouldn't have been able to come up with anything better than this.

I think these people are giving me Celebrity Derangement Syndrome. :mrgreen: :lol:

Is this why Drump can not get any real celebrities to play at his inauguration?

That and basically equating it to the Holocaust.


They compared the Bush Administration to the Third Reich and/or the Sith so nothing about them regarding Trump surprises me.
Their tears nourish me.
:twisted:


Interesting. I would normally compare someone holding a gun in a mask to a robber or terrorist.

Terrorist

Yeah, I'm sure no one has ever resorted to false statistics to prove their point.
The devil is in the details.

So I have noticed that a lot of military wantabes adopt an overly hostile, paramilitary attitude (firearms and hummers).

I always wonder, if they like it so much, why don't they join?

I agree with you, it is a terrible system, but it has allowed millions of people to get healthcare.

We should have a single payer system.

How about first we get a handle on pricing of services and bring them down to earth, THEN go from there.
Expensive is still expensive whether it's singer payer or not.
No one ever wants to question why medical services cost so goddamn much, they just want it for free.
