All that this shutdown proves is that the Republicans and the Democrats are ****ing the whole thing up. Both parties should boot out the extremists and take back their parties.
i guess you were not in politics in the time of Reagan.
Except that no one is stealing insurance dollars. :roll:
You also don't mandate personal responsibility.
Where do you get this kind of stuff from?So be it, but it's really the American people who will pay for the unwillingness of the Democrats and Leftists to accept that the majority of Americans do not like th elegislation they passes, and want it seriously modified, if not repealed entirely.
O'rly? What makes you think that such dollars aren't be allocated to cover the deficit from treating the uninsured? I happen to know a few people in the insurance industry who are telling me that's exactly what's happening.
You also don't encourage people to free ride like the GOP does.
I'm more concerned with Present Moment awareness, not Republican history rewriting.
Yes, when the uninsured get treatment that raises the cost of healthcare. That isn't exactly news and it isn't theft
That is what stupid government policy does, not the GOP.
It is theft when the same insurance dollars that were suppose to go to providing coverage for those in that insurance pool are now being used to pay for people outside of that insurance pool without the consent of those within that insurance pool.
That is functionally theft.
Except the policies that encourage is are the GOP's policy. Therefore it is the GOP.
It's funny watching self proclaimed right leaning posters argue AGAINST a reduction in the the theft of insurance dollars. The same people who argue that taxation is theft because it's redistribution. Functionally, we have the same thing, EXCEPT that the insurance payers often have no control or say in this unlike voters.
then i have to tell you then, from 1980 to 1986 the republicans controlled the WH and the senate, with the democrats in the house.
do you think they rolled over and did exactly what the republicans wanted to do......no.
nothing your seeing today is not knew its happened before......it just you only see it from one side.
fine. Then just destroy the _______ nation's economy because you don't like the aca. When dems get the house back, let's put every gun control on money bills. Let's have a crisis every 6 weeks, which repub wall streeters hate. Please give us another teadowngrade as in 2011. Happy now?
really?..this is going to destroy the economy, i still remember when bush was president in his first term, and had been in office less than 2 months, and democrats stated bush destroyed the stock market, and it would never recover..........but i see it did.
Yes, when the uninsured get treatment that raises the cost of healthcare. That isn't exactly news and it isn't theft.
That is what stupid government policy does, not the GOP.
You would prefer more expensive emergency room.
Once Obama came in. And Bush gets no credit for the surplus in the 1st year--that's Clinton's.
Democrats should counter with a nationwide ban on ammunition sales.
The fact that no one responded to this speaks volumes.
I agree. Dems should counter by saying they want the most popular gun legislation or else they are going to shut the government down and default on the debt. I mean clearly it is ok to do this as long as you feel strongly about it, right?
becuase they would lose their shirts in 2014.
the public is not going to go for a ammo ban, and to even propose it....... would be death.
You know damn well this belief of yours about strategy isn't the reason you would oppose this action by the democrats.
to propose that kind of action would condemn them, they would do better to offer another handout...like free college, or immigration bill .....legalizing foreign aliens.
The level of irresponsible behavior from this President is appalling. I mean Jesus H. Oust this SOB and put that idiot Biden in already for pete's sake. He couldn't possibly do worse than this.. I mean the guy racks up 7 trillion in debt and then has the huevos to shut the government down because we won't spend more?
Good job House GOP, you're starting to make me proud I was a Republican...Keep this up and you may win me back. First time they've shown a spine since Obumnuts got elected...
