Big difference between being a tourist and being someone that is in the country illegally sucking the taxpayers dry and causing the rates to go up for everything. I like that plan you have.
We have illegals popping out babies left and right, who pays for it? The citizen taxpayer. They take their kids to the ER with the sniffles because they get the meds and can't be denied care. My sister in law is an ER nurse, she said it happens all the time.
Like most tea party, repubs, libritarians or whatever you are mad at the wrong people:
You've been sold out. Your party (or at least the one that most closely resembles it anyway) bitches and moans about illegals taking work that most americans won't do (without healthcare and a fair wage) and sucking off the teet of the system. Here's the news, Conservatives controlled EVERY FUCKING BRANCH of government for a dacade. If Bush wanted to do something he did it, whether it was legal or not. Why then, if that's the case were there no laws made to keep people out or punish employers who hire illegals?
BECAUSE THEY DON"T WANT TO!!! The companies pay off the politicians to keep cheap labor to inflate their bottom line.
Why do you think they are allowed to go to the emergency room on our dime?
Because slaves aren't much good if they get sick.
And hey, you lean towards the tea party mentality right? Tell me if there were laws made to enforce against illegals (stopping the cheap labor) doesn't that qualify as Government interviening on the Freedoms and liberties of corporations.
bottom line: We are all puppets, we get to choose which puppeteers pull the strings.
So who should I be mad at ? NEWS FLASH !!!! The dems have had control of the House and Senate for the last 4 years. There are also laws in place for people who knowingly hire illegals. What the hell do you think ICE does :roll: and illlegals are not the only ones who can be treated at the emergency room and billed later. But they are the ones who for the most part don't pay their bills.That doesn't mean they are slaves either.
You can call yourself a puppet all you want,but im sure as hell not.

I'm really surprised that you are not too embarrassed to come back and post in your own thread. But like most teabaggers you haven't a clue how bad you look. I'm embarrassed for you. :oops:
we could totally pay for universal health care. the pentagon and military budget is $708 billion, BILLION dollars. the navy budget is $115 billion, which is more than the next 13 countries combined, 11 of which are our allies....we can cut the military budget SIGNIFICANTLY and pay for single payer universal health care...

not to mention they purchase products and services so they pay sales tax....
also, a lot of them would be eligible for a tax refund but since they are illegally here they don't file and the government keeps the money
don't compete; coexist
what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

First of all, I was speaking to someone on the right side of the isle. Democrats being useless is another whole discussion. Even if Republicans didn't block EVERYTHING proposed by Obama, I still doubt they would get anything done. Since Democrats and Republicans are bought by the same corporate masters, neither of which has done anything about immigration. I'd say that reinforces my argument.
also, a law that is not enforced is a joke. Trust me, if undocumented immigrants tried to uprise and protest they'd be back in Mexico in a blink of an eye. As it stands, they are just too useful.

I'm embarrassed for all three of you. Actually four of you. And I'm sure everyone on this board knows who the fourth is.
And I'm not degrading you. You degrade yourselves with lack of knowledge about subjects like Universal Healthcare. And then you have the nerve to start threads about it to support a cause of supression of your own nation of healthcare that most believe should be a right of every man, woman, and child.
And what is truly laughable is that you people rally against Obama and healthcare, so you are directly responsible for allowing the corporations to completely fuck it's citizens. Because of people like you, any reform coming from this administration now has turned to complete garbage.
People like Cosmo in this thread have told heartwrenching horror stories about fighting insurance companies at the same time as serious illness. Fights that have bankrupted good people. True patriots believe this should never happen to one single fucking citizen. But it's happening to thousands!!!! It's a fucking disgrace. So pardon me if I'm not perfectly polite in dealing with a rightwingers lack of knowlegde posting about other countries heathcare. :roll:
And I really am embarrassed for you. It's truly how I feel. You have been completely owned in this thread. You have made comments about things like bankrupting the country because of healthcare, then others come in the thread and point out how much is spent on defense. And you have nothing?! it's embarrassing. Do you know why America needs to spend so much on defense??? Look in the mirror.

brandon i have your back on this one...i presented the defense allocations and not a peep...imagine that..
"You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln
perhaps one of the reasons that the defense budget is so high because we have to pay for universal single payor health insurance for all of our servicemen and women?? its called Tricare...look it up...if you retire from the military you get tricare for life, in addition to medicare...2 universal single payor insurances?? no there is no way that can ever work....its enough to make my head explode with the high cost.... :roll:
"You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln
All these people screaming for Universal Health Care will be the same people screaming 5 years down the road because they are getting taxed too much. Bigger government..YAE! Go Government! :roll:
...
Here's a solution.
I hear about all this crying about "strapping the debt on our kids"... how about instead of piling the costs of access to Health Care on the top of the trillion dollars we already owe on the war onto the backs of future generation... we spread it out?
Since these are YOUR wars... how about YOU pay for them? Raise your taxes to pay for the wars you chose to support. These wars were OUR choices, not our kids. How about WE pay for the decision we made? You believe in in that Conservative cornerstone of 'personal responsibility', right? Well, so do I. I think we need to take the personal responsibility of our actions and decisions. The soldiers have to face the physical and emotional pains of our choosing to go to war... how about US civilians feel the financial pains? You support our troops, right? They and their families are the ONLY ones carrying the burdens of the wars while you sit comfortably in you living rooms... a half a world away from the bullets and I.E.D.s.
That way... maybe you'll shut the fuck up already about the debt YOU are responsible for and are laying on the laps of your kids. At least, our kids will have access to Health Care that they will be paying for.
How in the hell do you justify blaming me or anyone else supporting the Tea Party responsible for the war? The Tea Party was not even together when the war started...wouldn’t that be called lack of intelligence and information. Now this is how I see it....you guys didn’t do a fucking bit of good with your war protest or any efforts you all made to stop the war....you didn’t get shit done, about it did you? Is that why we don’t see you anymore? Now all you do is bitch and moan about it but doing nothing! Then you want to blame the Tea party because people joined the military and have to go to war....these men that join know that there is a BIG possibilities that they will go to war...they’re not stupid either....
The Tea Party has a few different agenda’s, the main one I am interested is fighting the corruption in the White House. Now we all have a bone to pick with the lawmakers but since we are all individuals we are choosing what is closes to our hearts to fight or fight for . . . Hey we may not get shit done either but why act as if we are doing something bad by all the hostile comments . . . and acting as though the Tea Party wants this war...I mean people could now say to you guys “where are you now!” Did you give up?....but that makes about a much sense as
” Where were you when Bush was in office”? I just don’t understand all the hostility on the MT.....
If there was a movement against the War and the corruption would we get along?

where did cosmo even mention the tea party in his post? he was saying it is your generation who chose the wars, so your generation should pay for it...you really really need to stop it with the hypersensitivity about the tea party....mb did not even mention the tea party so where are you coming up with this shit?? did you even read the posts?

Bravo You have Your style and the TB's might like it but you speak the truth and that's the way it is. The military complex and the warmongering state of mind that drives this country over the NEED to provide basic health care for it's citizens. I'll ask the question again has there been a foreign country that has gone bankrupt from providing it's citizens universal health care?
BTW I once had health insurance, had knee surgery and my provider found a way to not pay for that operation due to what they called pre existing condition. A partially torn cartilage however that's the reason I was having the operation. The horror stories will continue, sadly.

yep, if that was an old injury and your insurance switched they will not pay for the surgery, its a pre-existing condition. was it an injury or was it a degenerative change that caused the tear? all these tea baggers say that government will get between you and your doctor in making decisions, but the whole point of medicine is to start conservative and try non-surgical interventions and exhaust them before resorting to surgery. what your situation tells me is that insurance would have you believe that surgery should be done at the time of injury, which is the insurance company dictationg your care and getting between you and your doctor. for orthopedic issues like a torn meniscus there are several non-surgical interventions that are cheeper that should be tried first. any physician will tell you that.. if you are rushed in for knee surgery you run the risk of things like early onset arthritis down the road..which would give you another "pre-existing condition" but that is a topic for another thread....

Under Universal Healthcare this is obviously one concept we don't have ... pre-existing condition.

The terrible thing about this was that Mega Health Insurance approved the surgery before hand and knew the cost but STILL had the power to not pay for the surgery. There wasn't a damn thing I could do other than refused to pay the $5000+ bill till they agreed that I could pay only $1100. I was paying them $330 a month 10 years ago, I don't know what the people who are self employed are going to do in this country. Yes we could pay 4-$500 a month but still these insurance companies can and WILL find a way to deny YOU coverage.

aerial you love to make assumptions so for future reference I'll turn 50 next week and I've raised a 13 year old for the last 10 years by myself. So please end speaking nonsense through assumptions and I'm sure I've experienced far more than you for you to say something foolish like this.
Let's face it's been said before from people outside the USA why we can't get health care done it's needed and it has to get done. Some say we have the best health care in the world but what good is it if one can't afford it or get axis to it.

Brandon....I'm embarrassed for all three of you. Actually four of you. And I'm sure everyone on this board knows who the fourth is.
I was referring to this...just did not feel like quoting everything ok?
and I for one did not choose a war.....why don't you answer the question....
you or the others that act as if four people on here started the fucking War!
What are you doing about it?

Don't feed the troll.

I feel embarrassed for you guys because you have not lived a life long enough to have sensible views ....I would bet a lot of you have not raised a family and do not realize how much your out look will change once you have experienced the shit that will come your way as you get older.....
Assumptions, assumptions.... :roll: From a health point of view, my daughter will get anything she needs with universal healthcare here. I don't have to worry a bit. As I get even older than I am, I won't have to worry whether my pension money will be able to pay for my medical bills, my potential operations (heart bypass maybe?), etc.
So don't feel embarrassed. I've lived long enough, I'm raising a family, been faced with lots of shit (see previous posts ref my husband as an example) and guess what? My outlook on universal heathcare is still the same. Wouldn't do without.
I have an anecdotal experience that goes to show how fucked up our access to Health Care is...
I have been a voluenteer crew member for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk and Avon 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer Research for the past 8 years. A teammate of mine (Jim) and his 2 daughters and their husbands have been involved for the same amount of time. They voluenteered because his wife, Jackie (their mom) was fighting for her life, due to the very disease were are trying to fight.
Jim worked for (and retired from) an Health Care Insurance Company.
When Jackie was first diagnosed, the insurance kicked in and there weren't any problems and she went into remission for a while. When the cancer re-appeared, all of a sudden, the insurance company (whom he had worked for in a magement position for 30+ years) denied further treatment. They used their savings and his pension and took out a second on their home to pay for the treatment. They not only had to fight the horrible disease... they had to fight the insurance company as well. This should not happen to law abiding, taxpaying American citizens who paid their premiums for the insurance they were told would be there.
Jackie passed away 3 years ago and Jim had to continue to fight the very company he had worked for all of those years. Lawyers got involved and the company finally re-imbursed part of the costs for Jackie's treatments... but none of the hospice care and end of life comfort costs.
...
This shouldn't be the norm. All that talk about 'Death Panels' and shit.... the Death Panels are already at YOUR insurance companies. They decide whether you are a liability or not to their shareholders. It sickens me that this happens to people like Jim and Jackie in our country.
Anyway, we dedicate our Pit Stop at the San Diego 3-Day Walk in Jackie's memory.
...
Those of you whom are against Health Care reform... I hope you never have to face the realities of the system in place. The system is fucked up because its primary concern in the bottom line, not your best interests. This has been going on for way to long in our country and doing nothing about it isn't going to fix it.
And people wonder why a guy will grab a gun and shoot up the place.
There will be Committees deciding who is illegible for what .... Same as the insurance death panels...

So who should I be mad at ? NEWS FLASH !!!! The dems have had control of the House and Senate for the last 4 years. There are also laws in place for people who knowingly hire illegals. What the hell do you think ICE does :roll: and illlegals are not the only ones who can be treated at the emergency room and billed later. But they are the ones who for the most part don't pay their bills.That doesn't mean they are slaves either.
You can call yourself a puppet all you want,but im sure as hell not.
I'm really surprised that you are not too embarrassed to come back and post in your own thread. But like most teabaggers you haven't a clue how bad you look. I'm embarrassed for you. :oops:
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Do you ever offer any useful information or are all of your posts just to try to degrade other people?
Seems like troll behavior to me.
All he does is come on here and calls republicans racist, never really giving any good debates on anything.
Illegal immigrants with fake social security number pay payroll taxes -social security and medicare which they will never receive.

not to mention they purchase products and services so they pay sales tax....
also, a lot of them would be eligible for a tax refund but since they are illegally here they don't file and the government keeps the money
what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?
"I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama
when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'
First of all, I was speaking to someone on the right side of the isle. Democrats being useless is another whole discussion. Even if Republicans didn't block EVERYTHING proposed by Obama, I still doubt they would get anything done. Since Democrats and Republicans are bought by the same corporate masters, neither of which has done anything about immigration. I'd say that reinforces my argument.
also, a law that is not enforced is a joke. Trust me, if undocumented immigrants tried to uprise and protest they'd be back in Mexico in a blink of an eye. As it stands, they are just too useful.
I'm embarrassed for all three of you. Actually four of you. And I'm sure everyone on this board knows who the fourth is.
And I'm not degrading you. You degrade yourselves with lack of knowledge about subjects like Universal Healthcare. And then you have the nerve to start threads about it to support a cause of supression of your own nation of healthcare that most believe should be a right of every man, woman, and child.
And what is truly laughable is that you people rally against Obama and healthcare, so you are directly responsible for allowing the corporations to completely fuck it's citizens. Because of people like you, any reform coming from this administration now has turned to complete garbage.
People like Cosmo in this thread have told heartwrenching horror stories about fighting insurance companies at the same time as serious illness. Fights that have bankrupted good people. True patriots believe this should never happen to one single fucking citizen. But it's happening to thousands!!!! It's a fucking disgrace. So pardon me if I'm not perfectly polite in dealing with a rightwingers lack of knowlegde posting about other countries heathcare. :roll:
And I really am embarrassed for you. It's truly how I feel. You have been completely owned in this thread. You have made comments about things like bankrupting the country because of healthcare, then others come in the thread and point out how much is spent on defense. And you have nothing?! it's embarrassing. Do you know why America needs to spend so much on defense??? Look in the mirror.

The Tea Party has a few different agenda’s, the main one I am interested is fighting the corruption in the White House. Now we all have a bone to pick with the lawmakers but since we are all individuals we are choosing what is closes to our hearts to fight or fight for . . . Hey we may not get shit done either but why act as if we are doing something bad by all the hostile comments . . . and acting as though the Tea Party wants this war...I mean people could now say to you guys “where are you now!” Did you give up?....but that makes about a much sense as
” Where were you when Bush was in office”? I just don’t understand all the hostility on the MT.....
If there was a movement against the War and the corruption would we get along?
where did cosmo even mention the tea party in his post? he was saying it is your generation who chose the wars, so your generation should pay for it...you really really need to stop it with the hypersensitivity about the tea party....mb did not even mention the tea party so where are you coming up with this shit?? did you even read the posts?
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
BTW I once had health insurance, had knee surgery and my provider found a way to not pay for that operation due to what they called pre existing condition. A partially torn cartilage however that's the reason I was having the operation. The horror stories will continue, sadly.

"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
why did you go on such a rant about the tea party when clearly cosmo's post had nothing to do with it? why not just quote brandon instead of looking foolish? your post made me embarrassed for you too...

Under Universal Healthcare this is obviously one concept we don't have ... pre-existing condition.
The terrible thing about this was that Mega Health Insurance approved the surgery before hand and knew the cost but STILL had the power to not pay for the surgery. There wasn't a damn thing I could do other than refused to pay the $5000+ bill till they agreed that I could pay only $1100. I was paying them $330 a month 10 years ago, I don't know what the people who are self employed are going to do in this country. Yes we could pay 4-$500 a month but still these insurance companies can and WILL find a way to deny YOU coverage.

i am 34 years old. i would appreciate you not condecending to me and talking to me like i am a little kid. i have been through a lot and i have sensible views. i do not have a family because i have chosen to not have one yet. i am fighting for what is best for my country and its people. i am fighting for my generation and for the ones that come after me. to be quite honest, i don't really care about your generation, you all will be taken care of by your government. my generation is screwed, we will not have social security and at this point we may not have the strong medicare like you will be getting. i do not need people like you spreading a bunch of BS that has already been debunked like death panels. it is irresponsible and it only makes you look uninformed and foolish. my outlook might change some when i have kids, but my principles will never change. they are galvanized and they are who i am.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
aerial you love to make assumptions so for future reference I'll turn 50 next week and I've raised a 13 year old for the last 10 years by myself. So please end speaking nonsense through assumptions and I'm sure I've experienced far more than you for you to say something foolish like this.
Let's face it's been said before from people outside the USA why we can't get health care done it's needed and it has to get done. Some say we have the best health care in the world but what good is it if one can't afford it or get axis to it.
