with sabanfans's tort reform and my battle against obesity, we can turn this health system around. and my obesity battle costs nothing, in fact it saves us money.
The GOP Congress gave us the unfunded mandate of the Medicare Prescription Drug plan, which operates at a huge deficit because no taxes were allocated for it. so we just borrow from China . . . The unfunded GOP mandate of "No Child Left Behind" is almost as expensive and makes hardly any sense at all. Ask any teacher.
Yet you immediately shoot down any criticism of Dem proposals. You are far from independent, my friend.
I shoot down truthless criticisms, I discuss valid points, and I'll wait until a proposal becomes a final bill before condemning it. I am, in fact a registered independent and have voted for both parties many times. Are you still trying to tell me who I am? How futile is that?
how much funding would be required for tort reform? id imagined that they just make laws and tell some doj people to sic em. (dont worry, red, my rep and senators are all (R)).
By then it's too late. This Congress is going to pass whatever is put in front of them come voting time. We need to raise hell NOW! No, because you don't even know.
Agreed! This seems like the campaign all over again. I'll tell you I have a plan...I won't explain it in detail...I tell you to trust me...I'll paint any opposition (even those who simply ask for an explanation) as trouble makers...and I'll answer everything my way with a smug, arrogant attitude. :nope: This may work for the sheep in his back pocket...but NOT for me. NBC & MSNBC are in favor of this plan so it's obviously BAD for America.
The Democrats tried to call the town hall protesters a mob AND that led to more people attending AND that led to more disparaging comments from the Democrats AND that led to more people getting involved AND that led to pro-Democrat media attacking the protesters AND that led to more people getting involved AND that led to the Senate Majority Leader calling people un-American AND that led to more people getting involved AND that led to people being called Nazis AND that led to upsetting citizens even more AND that led to declines in polls for Obama, Congress, and Health Care Reform. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE keep slamming the pro-American protesters! We need to drag this country back from the far left movement into the middle and this is just the thing we need to regain our nation!
I fail to see how. We have Aetna, Blue Cross of Tx., Unicare, and umpti gillion others selling private and corp. health insurance policies to my company, or to me. I don't see interstate competition doing a lot for Tx. that is not already done. We have plenty of competition. It might do a little, but I don't see it as that big of a deal.
