Supreme Court to Hear Challenge to Obama Health Care Law

Republicans said no because they were locked out of the crafting of the bill.

They were locked out of drafting the bill? The one that was originally conceived by Republicans and the Heritage Foundation? And implemented by Mitt Romney in MA?
 
So you can't...As I thought the 'out of context' meme is Bull Shat!

j-mac

The point is that I already put it in context in the original post. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him literate.
 
I'm trying to say should is the wrong word. FACT: You are and will as long as we have to treat people who can't pay. Whine, stomp your feet, ask any questions you want. The fact will be that you will pay for someone else.

do you have a hard time answering honest questions?

why should I ?
 
Why should I have to pay for your roads and bridges?

Why should I have to pay for your national security?

Why should I have to pay for anyone's police/fire protection?

Why should I have to pay for anyone's public education?


See how easy it is to play your game?
'

you don't play the game well. those are all for the common benefit. I don't benefit paying for your health care
 
why should I pay for the defense of YOUR state? why I should my tax-dollars go to Federal funding of YOUR roads?

asked and answered-and given I pay far more taxes than you earn, I am paying for more of what you use than you do

I don't have children. I don't benefit from educating your children.

But actually, I do, just as you benefit from paying for other people's health care. The economy is better off if we have an educated work force. Life in general is more pleasant if I don't have to deal with blithering idiots all day. Crime and indigence are less of a problem if people are educated.

The economy is also better off if the population is healthier and thus more productive.

But it sounds like you're in favor of the mandate, yes? Since you don't want to pay for the health care of people who can afford to pay for it themselves?
 
do you have a hard time answering honest questions?

why should I ?

I have no trouble at all. By all means ask an honest question. And if you can, show me where I'm at all inaccurate.
