“A tax deduction of 150% for each dollar of premium would do wonders. There are ways to get more coverage without forcing people to take out coverage.”

So you want the government to still further subsidize healthcare?

Let’s just have single payer. If we Americans don’t want private insurance companies to set the terms by which they will insure us, then let’s have the government do it. As usual, we want to have it both ways and even conservatives want to have their cake and eat it, too.

I was thinking the same thing. We are wasting valuable time as our freedoms are slipping away daily.

Heads on pikes.

Cantor is the worst folks. He is a whiney sounding appeaser.

Now we have Boehner talking about finding “common ground” with the President.

What’s that? There is no common ground between freedom and socialism.

The GOP leadership just does not grasp or refuses to understand the difference between the two philosophies.

Ok make it 100%. Any less money going to the gov't is a help.

If Eric Cantor thinks we were mad at the libtards these last 2 years, just wait for him to see the wrath of the people directed at HIM, this time, for his positions. We will pound you into dust if you betray the Tea Party Mr. Cantor. Be forewarned, Mr. Cantor, we will savage you.

How about letting the market decide who has a plan that supports children until they are 27? Same with some of Jindal’s other ideas, such as to provide healthy incentives. Also, since when is having a national centralized medical record database a believable boon for privacy or cost? Finally, the big killer that Cantor and Jindal both support is really the practical end to noncoerced health insurance—which is forcing insurers to pay for pre-existing conditions. If people really are uninsurable otherwise, then state high-risk pools can cover them without ruining the whole healthcare market.

And Cantor has always folded with the Establishment—just as with TARP.

That’s just more of a market distorter, such as deducting the value of employer-provided HC, that has got us into our current situation.

Can’t we all get along? Obamacare is now OK with the GOP. As long as we can get rid of a few parts of it. And the White House and the Dems are more than happy to make a deal. You get your tax cuts - we get to keep Obamacare. Bipartisanship reigns forever in Washington.

Hallejujah!

RE: “No it doesn’t. Not when the rest of us are footing the bill. My kid is self sufficient and would never dream of mooching off my insurance policy. He’s a man and men don’t do that. My employees with family coverage saw their premiums increase by about 30% this year because other people’s 26 year old parasites are still suckling at the tit!”

**************

Agree — NO coverage of ‘kids’ up to age 26! How about age 21 — should the ‘kids’ not graduate with an undergrad degree by then? That’s long ENOUGH!

I was working and had my own insurance from age 18 onward - retired a few years early and bought my own policy — skyrocketing premiums for NOTHING every year — and when trying to shop around, was told what I’m paying is ‘competitive.’

Just got notice of 1/1/11 increase — NINETEEN PERCENT per month! That’s what CA allowed. That means $600 per month for one person, not counting co-pays and charges not covered by ins. Such a deal!

I’m dropping the policy; will go uninsured — will pay docs cash at reduced prices — all docs do this — so do hospitals —it’s super expensive, sure, and a big risk, but what the hell! If I get so sick that I spend every dime I’ll just spend until there’s nothing left and I get FREE care like the legions of uninsured who are the ones costing the rest of us our life savings anyway. I don’t need to leave anything to anyone in my ‘will.’ Screw it. I am SO disgusted.

Perhaps it’s time to convert more of your money to small denominations like:
.22, 5.56mm, 5.7mm, 9mm, .38, .375, .45 & .50

Boehner's response to today's meeting with Bamao:

"I think spending more time will help us ... find common ground,” Boehner said.

Turns out I was more prescient than I thought.

Well... Stop IT!!! ;-)

Unless you are going to prognosticate a return to a Constitutionally limited Federal Republic, then feel free...
