Yes right now we both have the luxury of moral compass.
But I am speaking of fairness and justice.
You can afford to pay for yourself and the taxes. Not everyone has that luxury.
As far as illegals, they are rising health costs to unaffordable levels.
Unless that is addressed more will be without insurance, paying higher taxes and penalties.
...
No... I do not think a moral compass is a luxury. We all have moral compasses, rich, poor or otherwise. Which direction our compass points is decided by us.
Now, just to clue you in.. i'm am not going to get involved with one of your circular discussions. The basis of this is the life of death of one person and their inability to pay their hospital bill. You see him as undeserving because he is in this country illegally and should have been left to die... and i see him as just another human being that is alive today thanks to the sacrifice of a great nation that sees people in a greater light than money.
I see it unfair to put someone else into poverty. To come to a country illegally,
use it's social services, flood it with extra costs, lower it's value for the citizens
of that country.
Like I said good for you you can afford
to pay the tax and pay for insurance. Maybe you can then afford to do even more?
As others in your position. Perhaps that could be a solution an extra required
sponsorship to provide for those who can not afford insurance.
But still we see it is a none issue for you so you can pretend
to have better morals than those
less fortunate who are not in your position.
Do you think you have more morals than the father working 2 jobs
but who can not afford health plans for his wife and kids?
This man who would like a solution to rising health care costs and taxation
and be on a level playing field. The father who is paying out to others
while he and his family are in need, just as much need.
The repercussions of paying for one is paying for millions.
It is causing rising health costs keeping people from affording healthcare,
it is causing higher taxation and the cycle perpetuates.
No sympathy I see for the American families struggling,
who do not have the luxury to afford either insurance or penalties and taxes,
they are being buried.
But glad you you have a moral compass, just selective perhaps.
The illegal immigrant in the link was cared for, do I think he should not have been?
Of course not, he should not have been here.
The hospital relied on donations and charities to help cover the millions
in medical costs his illness required.
Hopefully more people of means, like you, will step up
and give to cover these costs. Perhaps then the cycle will cease
and the American Dad working two jobs will be able to afford a bronze plan
and the higher taxes it takes to keep our social services intact.
Personally I don't think it will be enough. This Dad wants to send his kids to college too.
...
Okay... so, cutting through the unrelated bullshit that has nothing to do with this question... your short answer is:
"Let the Mexican Motherfucker die".
Got it.

I guess your answer is fuck no! I can't help more, punish the American dad working two jobs
and leave me the fuck alone on my pretend moral highground ...
perhaps you could learn to really read what you respond too
before making the other poster into a racist.
The support I hear for Obamacare always returns to insurance companies
refusing coverage or preexisting conditions.
Why could the government not have passed a bill to handle this fairly requiring insurance companies to accept these people
instead of requiring and forcing every American and every business
to enroll in our Presidents plan or be punished monetarily if they choose not to?
Maybe you can then afford to do even more? Cosmo: Assumption. and the Question mark... is this a question?
Perhaps that could be a solution an extra required sponsorship to provide for those who can not afford insurance. Cosmo: **Put a 'Have A Nice Day' guy with a perplexed, "What The FUCK?" expression on his face, here**
Do you think you have more morals than the father working 2 jobs but who can not afford health plans for his wife and kids? Cosmo: Assumption. Nothing to do with anything... other than adding yet another unrelated anecdotal example.

No matter how you try to spin it... everything you are saying is that the money would have been better spent on helping a father working two jobs than saving the live of this man.

Because that was the trade-off the government made with the insurance companies, their compensation for accepting higher risk enrollees is 30+million new customers. Just like the insurance companies demanded the inclusion of birth control to all policies as a trade off for keeping dependent children covered on their parents policies longer, free birth control=less children=lower costs for the insurance providers. The right sees the bill as socialist, but it's actually pro big business (insurance companies)

Well stated.
Expanding a market is capitalism. This is what the individual mandate does; this is what the health insurance exchanges do.
And (if all goes well :? ) this could relieve the strain on businesses that feel it is a "burden" to offer their employees health insurance. In the end though, I doubt these employees will see enough of an income boost to feel it is a win-win for them. Not with CEOs making the money they make and not with the imbalance of the top controlling all the wealth.

Also... wouldn't it be a relief if your access to health care was not tied to your employer? The way it was.. we were all one pink slip away from losing our affordable health care insurance along with the loss of our paychecks.

Really now you want to let corporations/ business off the hook for benefits?
Why?
So the big business makes even more money while the little people are taxed more.
And business is taxed because they take the penalty instead of providing
the insurance.
So just a whole lot more tax and we know what government does with that ...
it spends more foolishly not wisely or frugally.

How ironic is it that obama promotes an increase of domestic jobs and production...and his policies are not only contradictory, but paradoxical to his desired outcome?

2 - Constant deflecting of blame for obama's lack of effectiveness during his first term. 'He was left with such a disaster'. Fucking cry me a river. He must be the best god damned president we have ever had because things never seem to be his fault
Both are old and tired. Try something else.
To answer your question....read the OP. Obamacare has led to job cuts and shipment of domestic labor overseas, both of which are a paradox of what he is promoting during his campaign.
I wish that just once liberals would own their party's shortcomings without pointing the finger or bringing up certain media outlets. Instead all I seem to hear and see is how entitled they are to govt assistance, help from the 'rich', and excuses.

I asked how much does all of that have to do with the cmpany itself? When faced with increased liabilities in taxes, the company chooses to cut loose employees and go for cheaper labor markets overseas. What does that tell you about the company and it's loyalty to its employees? The same goes to the company that moves it operations overseas to avoid paying taxes in a country that helped to build it and gain its wealth.

Taxes are such a huge "burden" in this country, what else is there to do?
Have some sympathy for the CEOs; they have to put food on the table too, so why not take it from their former employees?
p.s. Is it taxes, or is it cheap slave labor that attracts the multimillionaire CEOs? I forget.

every company has a model in place in order to make a profit. If you increase the cost of doing business you have to cut costs. It's really not difficult

The excise tax in an industry that makes obscene profits. Do you know anyone in the medical device sales or pharmaceutical sales industry? The amount of markup on these devices, and the amount of money wasted on taking doctors golfing, out to lunch, etc., is staggering. And, that is part of the reason for the high costs of healthcare.
So, if they want to bitch and whine over a 2.3% tax while people in this country have trouble paying their healthcare bills, or simply go bankrupt due to them, or get coerced into being tested--how doctors make a lot of money, instead of being treated, they can bitch and whine. The truth is that they are selfish and greedy and have one thing in mind: $$$$.
As for me being all over the place, it's called a joke. And this comment, "if you try really hard I'm confident you can do it" is one you would never make if we were having a face to face discussion. it's easy being a tough guy when you are on a band's message board. but, I don't expect much from someone from Philly, "tough guy" capital of the world.

Name one piece of Obama's policy that "proves" this point. One.
* bonus point for doing so without quoting Fox News.
Typo Man: "Thanks kidz, but remembir, stay in skool!"
How about the above question?
When attempting intelligent conversations with liberals why is it always the same shit?
1 - Fox news (which no one against obamacare mentioned here)
2 - Constant deflecting of blame for obama's lack of effectiveness during his first term. 'He was left with such a disaster'. Fucking cry me a river. He must be the best god damned president we have ever had because things never seem to be his fault
Both are old and tired. Try something else.
To answer your question....read the OP. Obamacare has led to job cuts and shipment of domestic labor overseas, both of which are a paradox of what he is promoting during his campaign.
I wish that just once liberals would own their party's shortcomings without pointing the finger or bringing up certain media outlets. Instead all I seem to hear and see is how entitled they are to govt assistance, help from the 'rich', and excuses.
That issue has already been addressed.
I asked how much does all of that have to do with the cmpany itself? When faced with increased liabilities in taxes, the company chooses to cut loose employees and go for cheaper labor markets overseas. What does that tell you about the company and it's loyalty to its employees? The same goes to the company that moves it operations overseas to avoid paying taxes in a country that helped to build it and gain its wealth.
Go over some of the other responses... this issue have been discussed.
Hail, Hail!!!
No Cosmo, it is ALL because of Obamacare. Are you unaware that outsourcing began in January 2009? That the recession began the same time as well? After all God aka Rush Limbaugh, called the recession the "Obama Recession" in November 2008.
Taxes are such a huge "burden" in this country, what else is there to do?
Have some sympathy for the CEOs; they have to put food on the table too, so why not take it from their former employees?
p.s. Is it taxes, or is it cheap slave labor that attracts the multimillionaire CEOs? I forget.
every company has a model in place in order to make a profit. If you increase the cost of doing business you have to cut costs. It's really not difficult
you're all over the place dude. let's make a concerted effort to stay on topic here. if you try really hard I'm confident you can do it
the excise tax mentioned in the OP is part of obamacare. hence the moving of labor overseas. but again, I'm sure it's not obama's fault. nothing ever is
So, there you have it... you have answered your own question. It is the company that decides how it faces increases in operating expenses... it pulls anchor and sails off to China.
Hail, Hail!!!
The excise tax in an industry that makes obscene profits. Do you know anyone in the medical device sales or pharmaceutical sales industry? The amount of markup on these devices, and the amount of money wasted on taking doctors golfing, out to lunch, etc., is staggering. And, that is part of the reason for the high costs of healthcare.
So, if they want to bitch and whine over a 2.3% tax while people in this country have trouble paying their healthcare bills, or simply go bankrupt due to them, or get coerced into being tested--how doctors make a lot of money, instead of being treated, they can bitch and whine. The truth is that they are selfish and greedy and have one thing in mind: $$$$.
As for me being all over the place, it's called a joke. And this comment, "if you try really hard I'm confident you can do it" is one you would never make if we were having a face to face discussion. it's easy being a tough guy when you are on a band's message board. but, I don't expect much from someone from Philly, "tough guy" capital of the world. Go back to Broad Street.
