Why would you want to be exempt from such a brilliant, compassionate, wonderful law that gives everyone free healthcare?

I know. I must be one of those evil racists. LOL.

Here is my idea for health care reform. Give anyone who wants taxpayer financed health care a one way first class plane ticket to the foreign country of his or her choice in exchange of said person's passport. The person's passport would be replaced with a travel document that forbids entry into the USA.

One wonders what country any of those “free” healthcare advocates would choose.

What is a law if one unelected bureaucrat can exempt you from it?

Got a nice 3 y/o purebred Arabian stud colt in the paddock behind the house. Not free, tho. He is now ‘rose grey’ & he will grey out as an adult. Witez/El Tio/Kosciusko/Gulastra bloodlines.

“American voters on average have about as much sense as a domesticated turkey.”

Thank the democrat socialists and the NEA. It’s intentional; uneducated people are easier to subjugate.

...******that threatened to throw untold numbers of young workers into the ranks of the uninsured in an already precarious election year. *****

Which is also why the college group got their age 26 exemption, because it’s their main voting base, and a base that they know can bring back the Kent State era.

Thanks Kaslin. For that matter, the unraveling of Obama.
Thirty companies and organizations get waivers from the new health care overhaul because otherwise they'd have to raise rates or drop coverage. The president said neither would happen. Hey, where's our waiver? ...from the ObamaCare requirement that 80% of premiums for such minimed plans be spent on medical care... the "affordable health care for Americans" that... Pelosi spoke of... a bill no one had read was revealed to be an unaffordable fraud that threatened to throw untold numbers of young workers into the ranks of the uninsured... McDonald's has its waiver, for 115,000... Jack in the Box also has a waiver... 28 other companies and organizations... 351,000 [of] the United Federation of Teachers Welfare Fund... The United Agricultural Benefit Trust, a California-based cooperative that provides such low-cost minimal coverage to farmworkers... to exempt 17,347... Massachusetts' [Romneycare] bureaucracy... about 5,000 people.

“I don’t care who gets what as long as I GET MY PONY!!! WHERE’S MY PONY!!!!”

“Well, all this horse shit strongly implies there must be one here somewhere. Keep looking.”

You two owe me a key board. This old timer is still laughing. THis is some series times. But, thanks again for the laughs.

....”If we can get insurance companies and the government (Medicare, Medicaid) out of health care, health care costs will become manageable again.”

Absolutely. It’s government beginning in I believe it was 1965 with Teddy Kennedy at the helm of the Oldsmobile named Medicare that began this journey off the side of the bridge.

He’s gone, along with his BS, and we have to take the Kennedy residue out of government, and do it as soon as we can.

“Irresponsible, arrogant scoundrels. That’s what we have in the House and Senate.”

Indeed.
