No need to even address this. Rationing of Health Care is a fact in America. To hide it, shroud it, dismiss it is unconscianable. Yet, that is precisely what hard right radical conservative nut bags (since we choose to use labels like bleeding heart liberals, just following the lead here) do all to often.


Me too, who doesn't? And your point is? Should be deny ALL people Medicaid? Tighten the requirements? Enforce fraud provisions? What percentage do you think fit's into this group? THINK about it, not just some hard right wing nut response like "all of them".

Mississippi has the highest poverty level in all 50 states and is substantially African American in makeup. The Doctor IS white and he really did say this! R&B ringtone and other descriptions leave little or no doubt about this patients racial background. It is very clear who he is talking about.

Fashion is not part of the requirement for medical care or welfare qualification.

To ALL those who cannot help but refer to myself as a "bleeding heart liberal" let me return the favor. You are radical right wing nut tea baggers in every sense of the word and in every definition of the term. You are pseduo facist's who cannot stand it that someone disagrees with your opinios.

You offer NOTHING in the way of solving the problem, only continually whine and cry about how it's costing you. I don't have the slightest problem collecting even more of your taxes to support the less fortunate, you greedy bastards.

"One's ability to pay is not rationing. Nice spin Dan, I aint buying it!."

Dan could NOT care less what you are buying or not. You speak liberal, I speak American English. No way I can understand, or want to understand the convoluted, irrational liberal language.


"You offer NOTHING in the way of solving the problem, only continually whine and cry about how it's costing you. I don't have the slightest problem collecting even more of your taxes to support the less fortunate, you greedy bastards."

Dozens of alternative suggestion/plans have been put forth. But unless they involve stealing from those that have to waste on the ones that won't work, you say no plan was offered. Sort of some kind of 20-20 anal vision.

"I don't have the slightest problem collecting even more of your taxes to support the less fortunate, you greedy bastards."

And then there is that. Do you ever wonder why no one agrees with you?

If the obammercare bill was passed, not only would 20 million more NOT get coverage but costs would skyrocket to the point that all without coverage today would be joined by about 50 million more that would no longer be able to afford it.

Your liberal giveaway programs have worked for over 50 years, WHEN, we were the richest nation on the Earth. Now we are broke. As a society, as a nation. We are broke morally and fiscally. When obummer was elected, THAT DAY, 50 % of the nation wanted the economy to be the number 1 priority. 5% would like to see health care reformed. You don't get it and the anointed one doesn't get it either. Without jobs, there is no tax revenue to be had. Before the job losses, HALF the population paid NO income tax. Now even less pay. Half the people cannot support the already out of control Government. And obummer, a "supposedly" intelligent person wants to add another $Trillion burden [which will miss the mark and grow to 3 or 4 times that]. There is no one left to pay the bills. Tax the rich, tax businesses? The rich and businesses are the same thing. Tax them and they pass it on to the consumer. The consumer can afford less, the business pulls back, lays off, the depression deepens, and the expected higher tax revenues turn in to more tax shortfalls.

You liberal Utopian dreams and compassion ARE beautiful. No one can argue with the IDEA. But 'other people's money has run out." And without other people's money, liberal ideas are not JUST impractical [they always are that] they are IMPOSSIBLE.
