    Obama finally called them out

    Here are some articles regarding allowing the purchase of Health Insurance across state lines, which we are not allowed to do at this time. That is something that would promote true and fair competition, unlike attempting to compete with the government who does not have to turn a profit inorder...

    Obama finally called them out

    NO! You may trust this president and this congress but you do not know who will get in next. You need to be able to make your own decisions regarding your care. This will not be guarenteed with government involvement. The government is not trustworthy when it comes to handling our money. They...

    Mutually Exclusive Concepts (Ranty Questions)

    For the record, I was not specifically speaking about welfare recipients. I was how ever speaking about the poor, who do not always receive welfare, though their financial status was less important than the fact that those who run for election try to by votes with promises that they have no...

    Obama finally called them out

    enjoy the ride, you are exactly correct. The Founding Fathers felt that our rights came directly from God, not from the government.

    Obama finally called them out

    If Obama is so concerned with the inner city children getting a hand up and out into a successful world, why has he allowed the Democratic Congress to cut a very successful school voucher program for poor inner city children in Washington DC. A good education is their way to a successful life...

    Obama finally called them out

    Part of how they propose to pay for the the 900 billion or more that this new plan will cost is through "cutting out waste and fraud" in Medicare and Medicaid. They say they will get 400 billion by doing this. I dont know where they came up with an amount of 400 billion dollars (I think they...

    We currently have a ratio of over 400 people per doctor here in the US. Other first world nations have a much lower ratio of patients to doctors. Most are around 300 patients per doctor or less. The reality is that there will not be enough doctors to cover the flood of new people accessing the...
